This issue is very very disappointing, basically they "fixed" something that wasn't broken and its not even a compromise, no settings to adjust to make it better we have to learn to live with it, for me, it just snaps me out of realism, I love panning around after take off and watch the scenery go by. Will have to see how bad it is once the whole sim is downloaded again.

It all depends on what's around you and your altitude. Some areas are better, some worse.

It demonstrates the scenery being re-drawn when the view changes.  This re-draw has been introduced to increase performance.  Looks ruddy awful!

It's not. I just flew with trackIR over NYC and it's not a big deal at all. It's a minor issue unless you use snap views.

Though I do wish they gave us the option for increasing pop-in distance for powerful computers.

Overall, it was buttery smooth over NYC at 4k, 100% scaling, everything on ultra. I am perfectly fine with this minor compromise. It was amazing.

You're panicking for no reason. I just flew over NYC with track IR and the only thing that snapped me out of reality were the screen space reflections (can't wait for DX12 to fix that).

So in other words, this update has broken the sim.  

No. It once again broke the minds of children as predicted. It's fine with some minor room for improvement.

Deaf. Ears. I hate to be pessimistic, I, like you am just speaking from experience. 
 

Whilst I currently download the entire sim again, 120gb. That’s a whole new NDA story. 

I have to install the entire 120GB again also but I certainly can't tolerate pop in nor those annoying hourglass sim freezes in VR again.

Thanks for warning us of these issues beforehand as just a fellow simmer/consumer first!🍻

I'll certainly try the sim again when VR is updated/patched. Until then I'll enjoy my current VR go to sim.

Your observations are greatly appreciated!

Far from panicking 🙂 As I said need to test it myself. Thanks for the feedback.

However I think this will be far more noticeable over rural areas with trees. Which is where I fly mostly.

It always depends on how much you move around and how quick you do it. It's torture when you want to start the DC-6 using the realistic engine start procedures. I just want an option to add more in VRAM/RAM. This update is much better for lower end than for higher end pc.

You seem to be the only one claiming that, there are dozens of dozens of posts on this forum and on the FS forum complaining about these issues.

Much better for X Box, is my guess. That is where the focus is now.

Yes, I already predicted dozens of whining children. That's been true for as long as I've been part of the flight sim community. This is not surprising at all. There is some room for improvement but in no way does it break the sim.

Yes, snap views are where its most noticeable. I do hope they have give a slider option for pop-ins. Would be a good compromise.

For me with Track IR, it's not a big issue so far as I don't snap my neck around.

Sure but that's just a bad compromise, I would take my pre-update FPS happily the way it was over just looking ahead and flying smoother. Smoother to me would mean doing anything,  not just sitting still.

Not at all. Everything is much smoother now. 

Just musing whilst waiting for this to download....

I guess this would be quite pronounced when switching from forward cockpit to Pax window view? which is one of my habits
