If I get better performance in a better looking environment, why shouldn't I swap v4 for v5 while I wait?

@F737NG  what is your problem?
When you will try to download v5 this evening with all the other 38% you will be happy about _everybody_ who decided not to buy or to buy later.
So what?

Just relax and enjoy this day 🥂

 

Always safe landings 😉

"MSFS has more stuff as default"
Yes, it does. MSFS is better out of the box

Out of the box MSFS is 'apparently' better looking. That's about all we know by comparison at this stage.

XP11 is far better looking out of the box than P3D but I still use P3D far more. With XP11.50b3 which is a colossal improvement due to Vulkan and Prepar3D V5 by all accounts also a colossal improvement, I have all but forgotten MSFS. Over the past few year with Flight Sim my "if only" list has dwindled down to performance and scenery loading pauses. This is an epic time for flight simmers with or without MSFS.

Anyone have a source for this information please?

Yeah M$ burned the community on that already.  They have some good will to make up.  I will not be pulling the trigger on that until I see whats up.

Is there a running master list of add-ons who are updating for free to P3dv5?
