Why does Sim require Full Graphics?

Question as per title: why not?

I think the right question is why would it require high graphic quality? Elaborate your argument, a question like that without proper backing up argument isn’t going to lead anywhere in my opinion. There are little advantage from one quality to another higher, ground simulator battles needs a lot of improvements, whom none involves graphics to limit or make players as equal but in mechanics.

There are huge graphical problems relating to SIM in VR mode, I go more in depth in this: Extend Vehicle Render Distance Limit in Air Sim [EC]
forum post.

Why limit sim to those with only high end pcs?

The airplane cockpits are only included in the higher end graphics packs. A lot of the cockpits are very detailed and have many buttons and switches so it likely requires a higher resolution to be modeled and textured.

Example;
The SU-37 cockpit:


You kidding?
WT works on potatoes.
9-years-old CPU and GPU are enough to play on almost max settings.
High end only needed for top settings at 4K resolution.

name them. almost max settings would include SSAA

yeah… i wonder what gpu he could be talking about, the 980 ti?

Never used it, because it’s a rendering in 4x resolution.
Do you play all other games at 4K or even 8K res?

1070 or even 1060 was enough to play war thunder for all these years. Even at 1440p, with some downgrades.

With a 1080 FE and a i7-7700k you can run it at max setting

SSAA is off. blurry mess

if you never used it, you have never seen max settings. at least on your machine. also, SSAA is not exactly DSR/VSR, the game performs a bit better with SSAA.

other games incorporate DLAA&DLSS much better than war thunder. other games also have MSAA sometimes.

I can get hires sharp image without 50% fps loss.

War Thunder looks blurred at 1080p and lower.
At 1440p it begins to look okay.
As said earlier even 1060-1070 range card can handle this resolution. They were released in 2016.

whatever helps you cope. how far away are you from your monitor anyway?

not okay compared to other titles.

just not on max settings

There’s too much ULQ+SSAA abusers, that’s all.

My 1440p looks sharp as razor without 4xSSAA

Spoiler

you’re funny

this is also funny

OK, have a nice day.

enjoy your slop, bye

And I know over 100 games that don’t have DLSS or MSA.

In short, having a discussion with people like you is impossible.
