Preview footage / Scenery Morphing.

I've heard media embargo lifted on the 30th, I think we will see a lot of high quality footage then.

I see people here in Avism who said this.  But is there another more definitive source?  Maybe even some website that reported it?

1.) seems to be a lot of Preview 4k footage from YouTubers online now, without watermarks.... Like the NDA was partially lifted?

 

2.) In the preview video below, watch it, anyone notice the scenery morphing/twitching like the good ole P3D?

Besides it being old footage...

Its not going to perfect, but it looks better than anything we have thus far...and it will continue to get better...

Good question, don't have another good source. I have seen at least two journalists/ streamers get media hardware kits from MS/Xbox Game Studios though, so at least there's more proof something is incoming soon.

Furthermore it could be an issue specific to the photogammetry cities, where the quality of buildings/textures is streamed in different quality depending on distance... just assuming of course. Might be different, if generic Autogen is placed. But to be honest, I did not find it very disturbing compared to the autogen/scenery issues I am having with P3D. 

In a lot of preview/leaked videos, I have a sense that a lot of the popping is behind the aircraft...I've not seen a lot of evidence of popping in first person cockpit view. And I'm happy with that, because I don't usually fly in an exterior view looking backwards (or in an exterior view at all, for that matter). Wonder whether the scenery loading is directional - it would make sense to me if pilot perspective view was prioritised.

A problem with the footage I've seen, and the footage linked to here by the OP is a prime example of this, is that the movement of the aeroplanes in the turbulence is made to look terrible by the fact that the virtual 'camera ship' (i.e. the spot camera view position) is on rails. If the camera position also jumped around, which it would do if the aeroplane that camera was mounted on was flying through the same air mass, then it would look extremely convincing.

So I hope there is either some kind of camera viewpoint which does this, as it would improve things massively, or if not, that some kind of TPD camera utility with this function is forthcoming. I could fake it in something like After Effects or Premiere with post production, and that would be good for making movies, but it would be better if it could do it in real time in the sim.
