Has the building generation changed?

[Moria15 950]

I only ask because all of a sudden, in the area I fly in the UK there seems to be a lot more tall buildings where there wern't before.  Even some of the small villages have sprouted 3 or 4 story tower blocks in places...

This might be me, but i don't think so and it doesn't look right now, where it did before.

Yep, I noticed autogen had some changes in the previous patch too, lots of buildings have been replaced with ones that look objectively worse/incorrect and oriented differently to those at launch. Possibly via blackshark or OSM? It's impossible to tell as Asobo don't list everything in the changelog.

It's all over the world and it*s a HUGE immersion breaking bug.

I live in a small town in Pennsylvania. The scenery looked amazing before the patch. Now there are giant buildings everywhere and it looks completely ridiculous. Very disappointed, I was looking forward to enjoying the sim with the new patch this evening. Don't even feel like flying now. 

Really hope we don't have to wait several weeks for a fix...

Ya I noticed small Pennsylvania towns look more urban with high rise apartment buildings.

I get it but for those of us that have been enjoying this sim for it's beauty, this is a giant step backward and enough to make me not want to fly. Same issue here... It would just be nice to see three steps forward, two steps back with these patches instead of the other way around.

Well the thing is, I was happy with Flight Simulator before today's patch. The scenery looked great. Now it looks completely awful. The patch should never have been released until this newly created problem was fixed. It demonstrates the lack of quality control. Yes, we don't expect all bugs to be fixed instantly, but I mean come on, a patch shouldn't essentially ruin the game.

Well if they have messed up my "abode" from 20 years ago, that I just located yesterday, I'm gonna be miffed.

If it ain’t broke don’t fix it. Which they did and ruined what was working for the last 2 patches.

A simple 30 second test would have concluded that the patch was not ready to be released.
