Visibility quite exaggerated in new version?

Hi! I’m wondering if others have the same feeling as me, but it seems to me that visibility in the new rendering engine is a bit too good? I just flew from Singapore to Guwahati, and METAR in Guwahati is “METAR VEGT 200230Z 02003KT 2000 BR FEW020 SCT100 25/23 Q1007 NOSIG”, but this screenshot I got after landing doesn’t really reflect this low visibility. Also, I was able to spot the runway 3 miles out on final, which is about 5500 meters. A 2000 meter visibility technically should translate to seeing the runway only 1 mile on final. Any thoughts?

My guess is that the in game fog hadn’t adjusted to the metar, or vice versa.

Real metar and simulator metar?

I agree that fog still remains a problem in the latest version. It appears and disappears in seconds and just doesn’t behave like you’d expect (ie you gradually enter fog, rather than it appearing suddenly). Unfortunate that they haven’t changed this.
