One of the hardest things when moving from MX sim to MX bikes is the camera. In MX sim you really know what the bike is doing at all times because the camera is rigid and attached to the rider. In MX bikes it is really difficult to tell when you are on the limit of the grip. Suddenly you just lose the front end. Also leaning very fast from one side to another causes weird crashes because you can't feel the bike. Of course I'm playing in 1st person as a simulator should be played. This might not be as big of a difference for 3rd person players. In 3rd person I can't play MX sim or MX bikes at all. It just feels wrong. When landing a jump in MX sim the bike goes where the front wheel is pointed but in MX bikes it feels the bike might go where ever it wants to if the bike is even little bit sideways. MX sim definitely has a better 1st person camera and damping forces on steering. Also whoops on MX bikes feel wrong. You just pin it and the bike stays nice and straight.

Definitely I'm little biased towards MX sim and some of the things will get better when I play MX bikes more. But sometimes I see people commenting that MX bikes is way more realistic than MX sim and that is false. MX bikes has some serious flaws as does MX sim. It's healthy to have multiple games competing in the same genre. Too bad JLV has almost stopped developing MX sim.
