FSX Opinions......

[ivo]

I can garuantee you that the PMDG and Level-D virtual cockpit is better than the FSX default VC. 100x better. As for the airports, FSX doesn't have
20000 detailed airports, only about 50 (the deluxe). 24000 in total, but only 50 detailed. And how detailed? Microsofts idea of detailed isn't close
to our(simmers) idea of detailed.


What FSX Offers| What I have | Is it worth it?
---------------------- ------------------ ---------------------------

Detailed airports | Many detailed airports | Why should I upgrade to get the same thing I have now?

Aircraft...(not payware for now)| Many payware as of now | I have better planes. It will be months before 'good' planes start coming out.

Weather ? | AS6 | Can default FSX weather beat AS6?

ATC | The same. Only different color. | I use VATSIM anyways so no.

crappy performence(as of now)| Better performance than I would have on FSX | No until DX10 Graphic cards are out.


Price? A couple of hundred $ | Will not cost any more $ | Apperantly not

Altogether | I don't know. You tell me.




Are you really telling me that you will spend all of that money upgrading to FSX just to look at pretty trees and buildings. Or perhaps you wanted to
observe the wildlife. I personally use flight sim for the flying, not for sighseeing. Scenery isn't all that matters to me and its apperantly all that
matters to Microsoft.

I'm not trying to say you shouldn't upgrade to FSX. You can do as you please. I am simply stating my opinion about FSX and wheater I will upgrade. For
me, detailed airports aren't everything (even though I have many detailed[more detailed than Microsoft can offer] airports).
