Title: Re: 727 review Post by Tim Capps on Jul 3rd, 2009 at 4:15pm
My 757 review for AVSIM is still sitting on the editor's "desk" so I am acutely aware of the challenges reviewers face, especially on controversial products. I know it sounds ridiculous to call a toy airplane "controversial," but the flight sim community can be strange.
It is of epic length since there was so much bad forum buzz I figured I needed to address the complaints and either confirm, say I couldn't reproduce, or give a workaround. That's probably why I haven't heard back from him :-/ Evidently the last AVSIM review of the 757 caused rioting, with 767 cultists burning cars in the streets. Plus, I'm a trial lawyer, so I feel the necessity of proving everything. "The 757 stands accused of single-digit frame rates. Ladies and gentlement of the jury, I invite your attention to exhibits A, B, and C. You can see for yourself in these screen shots at KMIA, I am getting 20 FPS with a very long line of traffic ahead of it." If anything, the 727 is even better, or maybe it just seems that way because completing a flight with radio navigation and bringing her in by hand is just such a rush. I would not have guessed that was your first review, either. |
