People are posting screenshots already and one thing I can say, they’ve fixed the ram usage. One guy at klax, everything on ultra @1440p and the sim is using 6GB of ram.

Totally.  In some places I have seen as much as almost a 2/3 reduction in RAM use.

VRAM use has also decreased a bit, but not nearly as dramatically.

The servers even before update gone live, were collapsed of avsimmers checking if the update was already live.

I'm going to wait a while before trying to update on Steam. I got the Steam update, about 300 MB's but when I start MSFS, it tells me I should check my internet connection (lol) and try again later. I'm in the middle of US

Sounds good.  Did he disclose his GPU?

Things are messed up, will try later and read a good book instead...

This update has added a bunch of water runways in the US and Canada. Not seeing any in other countries yet.

It was cleared last night. Nothing in there.

Xbox friends, we were not used to them in these last patches, so its' just reasonable to expect lower download rates.

That explains the texture bug at the poles then.  I never experienced any problem flying in Poland.

Most of the XBox content pre-staged a week or so ago and was just waiting for release day to unlock.   There may be some day 0 updates they need to download, not sure, but they should all have the bulk of the content already.

For some reason this is making my own internet word not allowed out every 5-10 minutes. Even when running right it's a 6-8 hour download for me. I may give up and try again tomorrow.

Chewie was streaming and had to download 20GB at least.
