PMDG Boeing 737 vs Xplane 11 Zibo mod | sound comparison 

Excellent positioning, commander! After the launch of PMDG, people kind of dismissed the merits that ZIBO has. The ZIBO not the most flight-study mod out there, but it certainly looks like a very well the real 737.

Speaking from a 737NG technician point of view, being in the cockpit daily: ambience sounds from the PMDG like battery noise, relay sounds, packs etc. sounds much better. Can't dissagree with the engine sounds tho.

As an ex- 737 pilot with some time on them I’d say there’s little or nothing to choose between these examples. I may have a preference, but couldn’t really say which was better or worse - they’re both ‘good enough’ imo. The lack of a ‘click’ when the ‘throttles’ close in the PMDG is the only thing that I noted, and I’d want added, being pedantic but it is a significant omission imo.

1: you don't really need very good quality sounds, the ones on the zibo mod are fine 2: zibo is freeware and PMDG is payware, and the PMDG is not really cheap, it costs 35 dollars for the small -600 and 70 dollars for the -700

@@flickzbtw_ "you don't really need very good quality sounds" WTAF did I just read?

They dont really even match the 737 as much as the Zibo 737 does. Zibo has much mroe crisp and realistic sounds.

@@flickzbtw_you need quality sounds

And that is bullshit

@@apocryphal_man Everyone has their own opinion, be more respectful!

the sound of zibo is even more realistic, but I have to agree that pmdg's audio quality is much better

Only in 737pmdg or in all planes and sims?

@@ronavi1219 in all planes.. i only have xplane 11 atm😭

Did you mean the camera? We have XPRealistic for camera inertial immersion and the same team also released it for MSFS. Or are you talking about the sudden drop engine sound between 800-1500 AGL? That's called engine derate and both sim have study level detail on that system.

You would have to be feeling the g forces to simulate that

Level up is trash and full of bugs. Zibo is way better and polished.

@@windshearahead7012 the o ly good thing about the level up 737 in the improved cabin texture and modeling

also some system were tweaked for accuracy on LU737NG. But LU was born from zibo.

@@cupofjoen lu is born from Ultimate with help of zibo

@@undok okay, but we still need that update and 737 max release bro

Even so for a free product Zibo has done really well

Why not? They are basically same aircrafts, pmdg is 700 and zibo is 800, different is 800 is a bit longer, and have couple new switches, but in general sounds are same for switches, engines.

I think it’s a fair comparison, given that simulators aren’t really a limiter of sound quality in this case.

yeah asobo needs to work on phsysics and dynamics

Both have pluses and minuses, i fly on both platforms, xplane shines with flight dynamics its true, but mfs shines in system deepness

ahahahaha hf...

@@fiftyphonkartist just keep asobo like that, it's a gamey sim, not real sim lol.

yeah pmdg dissapointed me with the wing flex

Idk you guys. Do you watch AvistionPro channel? He flies PMDG 737 and what I noticed from his streams, PMDG 737 have choppy animations. Something that hurts most peoples eye. And the same thing happen on PMDG MSFS.

What sect? Not everything is politics or religion.

fck 4IIah

lmao

Then you know nothing about flight SIMULATORS, msfs is a game not a realistic simulator that simulates the flight physics and dynamics of a real plane like Xplane

@@randomshark138 some pilots even said the Cessna 172 feels more realistic in msfs

​@@randomshark138 Bullshit, xplane is a game aswell, it all depends on addons.

@@randomshark138 this is what every single but hurt Xplane fanatic says and yes i own both sims and respect both platforms but MSFS will be the future of flight simulation. Austin dropped the ball with Xplane 12 this "flight dynamics" argument is getting rusty. With time and some good coding MSFS will surpass Xplane in that area and I'm sure they're going to work on a good physics engine. Austin needs to get his head out of his ass and work with Google. Again i loved Xplane 11 it took me away from the terrible FSX franchise but MSFS stole me back. Waiting to see what happens but guys like you are fueling Austin's ego which is why Xplane 12 feels like a DLC update and not something fresh
