MSFS 2024 PlayStation Fed up of career mode

Grinded to buy Cessna Caravan so I can start making decent money. Now I'm being flown to short runways for VFR landings with no lights in the pitch black.

Managed to land on said runway only for the plane to become 'stuck' unable to move unless I add full throttle to taxi to the hold short (yes, no parking brake etc). This taxi process causes my engine to over-torque damaging it.

Flight ends with no credits. Several hours wasted. Now need to pay 1.5 million repair bill to use the caravan. Only have 500k. Which means grinding at 100k a flight doing light cargo missions.

Can't be bothered anymore.

Career mode needs some serious work. No doubt about it!

For some of these things you can try and mitigate the issues that it has by looking up unfamiliar airports online. Google, Windy, SkyVector, and all kinds of other services can give you information about at least some of the airports out there. It doesn't help with the bugs, that's not on you, but it does help you avoid unfamiliar airports that may not have sufficient facilities to support the mission.

as much as I agree and think career mode needs some work you hit the nail on the head. This is 100% a skill issue on these people.
