They should just offer sliders in the UI to the small % of people complaining to set graphics to SUPER ULTRA PLUS. I bet it's a placebo thing to many of the people who hate that Xbox can now fly the same build.

The visuals can be the same but as long as the superior PC people can set their slider higher then Ultra, most will be happy. I'm not even joking. It 100% could work.

No CTDs (I had a couple of CTDs when the sim booted into the "checking for updates" screen, since the hotfix these are gone), controls work fine. Performance much improved. Load times are much improved also.

Yes, the clouds are blockier (and pixelated at the edges), and then there is the occasional pop-in.

Keep up the good work Asobo/Microsoft, and (mostly) ignore the incessant complaining by a vocal minority.

Most important issue to me is: continued work on the G 1000 NXi and the G 3000.

As I posted in another thread: I took off from Biarritz, France,  and the city and the ocean looked exactly like I remember from the many flights I took there as a passenger.

You are posting this in the very same thread where (by quote) Asobo/Microsoft acknowledged all those issues that you say don't exist? How stupid is that?

Skies remind me of ugly X-Plane now. Haze everywhere.

• Anti Aliasing on in flight tool bar and screens

It's the menu and UI. If you can read it, it's fine. Can you?

They're acknowledging the whining, which is appreciated but ultimately useless.

No one will ever agree with colour palettes that are a matter of taste as well as what a user is used too, based on their hardware and monitor / TV set up. 

Fortunately programs like nvidia freestyle allows for adjusting those elements such as colour, exposure and gamma on the fly and localised to any one particular program. I spent years avoiding geforce experience, but after installing I went through the options and turned most features off and just utilise those I want. Not sure if my sim looks 'realistic' but it looks exactly how I want - which in 2021 is all I want. I feel fortunate that this isn't 2006 and I'm stuck with whatever the developer has decided. 

Not sure if amd have similar, but it's a utility I wouldn't be without.

Yeah that's not what they said.

Read my post and the poll further down before YOU make a fool out of yourself. I acknowledged the (to me) slight visual degradation, which (as I also wrote) is (to me) an acceptable trade off for the significant improvement in performance I'm getting.

"Developer acknowledges issues" is a standard reply in gaming.

Again, please use your head before putting your foot in the middle of it.

Thank you and have a nice day.

So - two major flight simulators agree on the same level of haze now as realistic. And the user that wants to use his flight simulator to "take pictures of AI aircraft landing and taking off" does not like it. Hmm. Who´s opinon would I go with? 🙄

I don't know what poll you are talking about, but in the post I quoted you with, you literally started with "What issues?", continuing that - implicitly - CTDs don't exist since you don't have them etc.

Therefore you were contradicting what Asobo said in the very same thread. Now if that is a standard reply is another question, because I could make list with 1000 threads over at the MSFS forum with issues that Asobo DIDN'T acknowledge. So no, acknowledging issues through an official post is not something like "logging a bug report" or "Issue is under review".

Anyway I don't mean to argue on the internet with strangers and I apologize for calling your post stupid, that was unnecessary. I shouldn't go to AVSIM before having had my first coffee of the day...

actually it is.. and that is where we get SO MANY problems in people reading but not understanding...  what they said exactly was :-  

"we are currently triaging and/or discussing the biggest issues we are seeing reported (LOD Pops, Temperature altitude fix not working, CTDs, installation issues, etc.). "

Triage as defined means discussing, seeing if there is actually an issue and then determining severity and treatment order if multiple issues.

Nothing in their post actually says they are going to change anything at all.

I expect they will,  but currently there is no promise..  it just states they are looking into all the reports they have seen..  it promises no fixes yet.

Oh look, it's the X-Plane troll again. I don't even know why you even bother posting in the MSFS section if you have nothing to contribute.

They have acknowledged they have a communication problem.

There is more to the visual degradation than they say and it's not just LOD. It's hard to put into words but there has been a distinct loss of vibrancy and lighting complexity. The world looks much flatter, duller and less real. Shadows, light reflections and lighting subtlety seem to have been simplified and I am left looking at a child like painting compared to a photograph.

Completely agree. Blackshark buildings now look so Xplane-ish. LOD and illumination changes really are evident in autogen towns.
