High detailed aircraft

[languid ridge]

Aircraft in RFS are pretty known to have a mediocre quality, not the most amount of details but they are still nice. But i think its time for a change.

Instead of seeing new aircraft each month or two with mediocre quality, I would rather see aircraft that are much more detailed and will take longer since the details take time to develop.

And maybe to combat with people not waiting that much, information could be shared about what aircraft are coming and their progress.

I’m gonna be honest here it seems you want rfs to really fully copy the way if is going

Which I’m not gonna dislike that, I respect your idea of this but in the same matter it also removes some originality

[static brook]

No? its about just convincing an braindead community that waiting for a 6 month update is completely okay and will deliver much more than a 1 month one(its that hard)

[static brook]

some models are 3rd party,only the highest quality models(and the old ones) come from rortos
tbf i think they only hired 1 3d artist

if the community gave them time,it could be incredible

Please do

At least I respect your opinion, but you’ve missed some points you should consider, first of all if you are going to pay for a mobile flight sim you should not come expecting PC-Like realism or detailed models, RFS is made for even low end devices, so creating the highest detailed models would set many phones with the sim on fire, it’s called a target demographic, people who want an excellent flight simulator that is not a scam like Fly Wings 2016 but still playable on their probably not so high end phone

And also Rortos in absolutely nothing of a company compared to Laminar Research or Microsoft which is statistically one of the richest companies worldwide, and Italy is not as rich of a country as the U.S of course, so local companies don’t or simply cannot invest as much money into their projects do to lack of available budget.

And c’mon dude, RFS’s models aren’t mediocre, sure they could be better, anything could be better, but they are certainly not terrible

"RFS is made for even low end devices"
bro what

Besides, as usual with big performance things, an option could be made to toggle them on and off

[languid ridge]

Why are you assuming that rortos is a small company? it just doesnt make sense to me

[static brook]

because it is? the last time i saw it was just a team of developers

nothing makes sense to you

[wooden yew]

Calm down bruh jeez, I said i respect your opinion 🗿

But those are some key points that you missed but I do agree with you in a way

[wooden yew]

My dear guy If you didn’t knew there is already an option for quality selection and turning off volumetric clouds

If I didn’t knew better that is made for people who’s devices might not be the best

And like I said for being a mobile flight sim the models in RFS are excellent, but they could be better, and if you think they are not great then it’s your opinion

[misty rune]

Because my house is worth more than the company

[languid ridge]

The guy said that rortos is "nothing" compared to laminar research, which probably has a similar amount of employees.

[tardy sluice]

Laminar and Rortos are so completely different things and can not really be compared to each other...starting with the fact that mobile simulation is not their core biz...

[static brook]

i didnt read that sorry

tbf laminar research was there since 1995,we know who has more experience

[teal gust]

Having higher detailed aircraft will need a higher system requirement
More game size not sure all devices will support it
But it can be made such that if your phone is compatible with a say ultra high def graphics 120 hz etc you could toggle a switch in graphics which is a good thing

Another part is it may cause a price hike
Rfs seems to be restricted by creating a game for the masses
Offering a superior version of rfs maybe better experience and may get more people who can pay for it

[static brook]

no,thats not a problem,the only problem is that updates will take more time and there will be no people waiting for it,im betting 100 bucks

[eager jay]

Congratulations @static brook! You just advanced to level 22!

[wooden yew]

Young lads, in my day RFS got updates like every 2 weeks

No seriously they did no joke here

Problem is people are impatient and think developing a flight sim is ez and quick

[teal gust]

The issue is here
People used to rapid updates and now when there are less things in general to update
It’ seems more specific now
Say the 380 needs a rework example
Or maybe a glitch in say northern poles side
Or the issues are individual things like someone doesn’t like the sound or the taxi car
Not general but highly specific and individual niggles

[wooden yew]

for me the only piece missing in rfs is the pacific scenery, Because it’s actually missing 🗿

[teal gust]

That’s another example
Someone now gonna have to design the scenery which may take a long time because the ocean ain’t small
You may understand that’ll it’s gonna take time
The next 20 kids won’t
Infact most oceans seems auto gen

[wooden yew]

Ah I get ya

But remember that with effort comes success, and speaking of remembering Hawaii was also blank ocean but it got updated with scenery

So they probably got the data they needed after a lot of time

[wooden yew]

Nah don’t worry, I do understand how business and difficult things work, I’m smert 2+2= Letuce

[static brook]

in my day too,duh,ive been here since RFS was in the 0s updates(not in the discord,just in the game)
