I think they are doing a bunch of reading and taking notes.

As far as I can tell, there has been no comment from DTG reps since just after launch. Am I the only one that finds this silence deafening? 

Aimee showed up in TheSkyLounge.tv's Twitch stream chat. She didn't say much except that work was continuing, but she seemed to imply the product wouldn't be leaving early access anytime soon. 

When any product is over hyped don't expect too much from it.

They are replying on steam on some threads FSW user`s are there not all here.

The usual demands from the early simmers. 
It always happens.. 
Guys, maybe go the the official forum and ask there?

In any case, you got exactly what was written in the tin.. An incomplete beta, or is it an alpha version? No more, no less.

Some have been happy, others already asking for refunds. There is no holy grail out there (yet)

It doesn't leave a good impression to release a game in early alpha. There are too many thing wrong and no one knows if the game will become more flexible aka FSX P3D or whether it will stay locked in as of now.

The experience with TSW is that the release was pretty much the same as the beta. By which time the users had already played out the available scenarios. Once you have gone from one end of the track to the other at a break neck speed of 20mph you loose interest very quickly. And that is what has happened. Everyone has returned to TS2017!

They really need to optimize this, before it's interesting IMO

I did both, got bored of TSW in a hurry and went back to my wealth of content in TS2017 (which also mostly works better than TSW content) and Run 8 when I want a real challenge.

This. A shame 3D Train Stuff haven't got a 3D Flight Stuff division.

As regards input here from DTG, again I can go by my train sim experience that, so long as it's plaudits by the fanbois they seem happy to take part. Once criticism, even constructive, starts coming in they tend to duck for cover. They also have a track record of removing (or having removed) negative criticisms on forums or media they control or have influence over hopefully not here, as I'm starting to enjoy this board having previously only used Nels' place for FS stuff (good folks, good brew all that).

.... 

Hello there! Before we start adding in features, etc, we are focusing on optimization mainly. 

That being said, if you have general feedback about your intial experiences, we'd love to hear from you in our forums on flightsimworld.com. 

If you encounter any bugs on your travels, please report them here

We will be looking to the community for more directed feedback on specific items in the next few days. 

I hope this helps!

Aimee

DTG have actually said..

This Early Access game is not complete and may or may not change further. If you are not excited to play this game in its current state, then you should wait to see if the game progresses further in development.

That is not from us. That is standardized messaging Steam puts on all Early Access titles. Trust me, we're going to be updating!

Hi Aimee,

If that link is intended to be public, it currently says I dont have permission to access it. 

What kind of optimization are you looking to test? So far I know I have 0 stutters and relatively smooth FPS, but thats with everything except for traffic to ultra. Is there a benchmark of performance we should be looking for? Not sure how "optimized" optimization is.

Oh no! Let me fix that for you. 

It's less about testing and more sorting out simmers with recommended specs who aren't getting a playable FPS, as well as fixing bits here and there - general first update stuff. Before we start implementing features, we want to make FSW as playable as possible.

Hi Aimee I'm running it in i5 3.4ghz CPU, MSI 960 4GB , 4GB ram installed, a bit below your min spec`s but run smooth and no stutters over 50fps window10 creators update res 1920x1080 ,

scenery high no traffic medium settings rain effect on.

I did try locking fps in the cfg file to 30 to see what would happen but they still went up to 50fps.

Edited the Seneca to my call sign on the plane G-RFRY works ok. 

I will give feedback but I want to take some time trying things out.

Ray Fry.
