It has happened before a few times anyway with updates, so nothing new. I would rather them keep tweaking until it is good. That way, at least we can fly for now rather than have the mandatory update. I edited my original for clarity. Edited July 21, 20214 yr by bobcat999 Rob (but call me Bob or Rob, I don't mind).

They always told - LATER this year (in my opinion in the fall). 27.07 update for PC and performance upgrade, it applies only to optimization for GPU and CPU and simulator processes, thats all. DX12 doesnt give a bigger performance jump what we will recive now, in 27 of July. As far as I know, everything will be on time. No YoYo, don't take me out of context. First of all, I said this... 'Although it was never explicitly stated it would be included in SU5, it was hinted at' Secondly, they never said later this year, or 'the fall', as in your opinion, it explicitly stated Summer 2021 in their own posts, and still does. They also made statements that DX12 would be coming to PC alongside the Xbox release; I think a few of us were surprised when they said it would not be with the Xbox release or SU5 now, but would now be 'a bit later'. As you say though, DX12 will probably be no big deal, and not worth worrying about. Rob (but call me Bob or Rob, I don't mind).

July 21, 20214 yr Let me be clear, again. They are not planning to dumb things down to gain the fps. They are reworking the engine to use hardware properly. In fact the tree lod is being restored (increased) to at least what it was in earlier versions. Ignore the fake news..... http://youtube.com/c/Greazer

A lot of it is just opinions Greazer, and you know how much they can vary between individuals; the threads ramble on for days on here sometimes arguing about the slightest detail.

July 21, 20214 yr Asobo is working hard on the sim, this is a nightmare for the addon devs because they have to follow the evolution of FS20. Not anymore addons sold and left with bugs for years as happened in P3d and FSX. At this moment I'm appreciating the PMDG DC-6 greatly, I'm comfortable about very good and nice improvements from the next sim update, the blanket is not too short. PS: the CRJ project from Aerosoft was a failure since P3d. Edited July 21, 20214 yr by Claudius_ Missing the PMDG DC6 in MSFS 2024 (she's here, but...).

July 21, 20214 yr As updates are mandatory Asobo has the responsibility to release a working sim. If there would be problems like CTDs it would be a disaster. That said I think they are already ready since quite some time and will release on 27. Karl i9-9900K@5,0 | 32GB 3200 | 2080TI | 4K 55" | MSFS | P3D V5

Do we? I think 3-6 GB GPU is more normal for most people because many skipped the GTX2xxx series as they were told GTX3xxxx would bring much more improvement relative to the GTX9xx and GTX1xxx cards they had, but when third gen arrived prices started bonkers and just went higher so a good portion of the waiters (like me) were left stuck on our older cards. I think my GTX980 is 4 GB, so I will very much welcome a reduction in VRAM usage. 3 hours ago, Dominique_K said: What I read from leakers on other forums : - optimization choices that were made have an visual/aesthetic impact that doesn't please everybody Would you be able to go into more detail (I'm not asking you to break an NDA, I presume you are not covered by one as you are just relaying information that's open elsewhere) or direct me to where these compromises have been discussed?

July 21, 20214 yr Maybe it's like this: If you adjust the graphics options to have the sim look like it did pre 27. You will not gain any fps. Who knows?! Karl i9-9900K@5,0 | 32GB 3200 | 2080TI | 4K 55" | MSFS | P3D V5
