Oh do I remember those days!
"Why release a simulator that no computer on earth can run?"
"If i want to have the same FPS as FS2004, I have to lower the graphics so much that it looks WORSE than FS2000!!"
"The planes are unflyable, with the FPS so low!!"
"So M$ wants me to get a whole new computer just for their simulator, and even then it will not run it well??"I do remember that it literally took years before FSX became the sim that most of us wanted. And plenty of add ons. And then it became a product that held for years and years. In fact many here still use it, even when there are other more modern options out there (before FS2020). So, my point is that it will also take some time before FS2020 becomes the sim that most of us will want.
In my particular case, I do like the eye candy. I mean, I look at all the changes from FS3 (my first sim) to what we have today, and I cannot cease to be amazed by how much it has improved. And instead of focusing on the (multitude) of areas that FS2020 has to improve, I prefer to enjoy the good points it has. I can always launch XP11 if I want to get back to more advanced "realistic" planes.
The more things change, the more they stay the same...
Peace.
