Mistakes in FS2004

[Woodlouse2002]

I would like to see M$ stop representing ferry crossings on rivers as roads and bridges. The "road" across the mouth of the Fal estuary has been bugging me since CFS1 and M$ puts it in ever version. In CFS3 they've actually put a bridge there! Go to any river where you know a ferry operates and take a look, you'll find a road there. And it's damn annoying.

I would like to point out that the lack of hedgerows and the extremely inaccurate placement of tree's is very off putting. Also the lack of detailed grass is annoying. In FS10 I want grass that actually grows. So you can neglect a grassrunway and then hide your plane in it. And when will they add that damn cup holder?

Holy cow! I just measured the Empire State Building in NYC and it's off by almost 3-1/2 feet. Even worse, the Chrysler Building is off by 33 feet -- that's almost equal to one rod!

Nice one.

one thing that really bothers me is that they put the missouri river 2.3 inches west of where it actually is!! can you believe that S**T?! And the empire state building has another error that Gus missed-- it has 3 more bricks in FS than it does in real life!! what the hell were they thinking at MS??? I will never buy another MS product again! as real as it gets my @$$!!! they only way I will buy FS10 is if you actually get injured or killed when you crash your plane.

how was that?

You also have to make the AI cars disapear after they takeoff and reappear before landing

You could turn them into aircraft!

That's right! I want M$ to send a hitman to my house, in the middle of he night, and kill me! Slowly I might add (if I died in the ensuing fire, not the actual crash itself) And if I was only injured in the crash, to seriously hurt me!

I wouldn't buy it. As soon as I loaded it, I'd be lying on the floor in a pool of blood.

But it'd be your blood, not some fake digital stuff. Don't you guys have any commitment to realism  ???

I lived in Florida in the late 70's early 80's and the Sunshine Skyway Bridge that runs from St. Petersburg through Tampa Bay towards Bradenton I'm pretty sure that it didn't stop half way through the bay.... .

I know that one of the original bridge spans was knocked down by a ship collison in the late 70's and the new bridge was completed by 1987. You'd think that M$ would have done just a little better on the longest Cable-stayed bridge in the US.  ;D

I must point out that my gripe about the ferry crossings was serious. Tis bloody annoying.


Now, where may I ask is Lichtinstein in the M$ world?

Same place it is in real life ?


Doubt this helps

Not really a mistake, but I'd like to see MAJOR Airport/Rail stations (example : Gatwick)
Also updated sat imagery would be nice.

I know where it is in real life. But M$ seem to have forgotten about it.  :P

I just tryed a small portion of the terrain mesh offered here on the download page. Its pretty good, it fixed one of my few real complaints, specifically that the area I live in was way to flat. I dont expect it to actually look like Saint Joe, but at least the elevation should be right.
