ASOBO need to give us back the clouds that we bought when we purchased MSFS.  All this downgrading of graphics is totally unacceptable.

There is no doubt that the clouds have been downgraded since SU5. Sure from a distance and in certain lighting and weather situations they can still look decent but at least half the time they look a lot worse for me now especially when up close. They have lost much of their detail and realism and often times now resemble something from an amateur oil painting.

If that's the way they were from the beginning, then sure, I'd say it's better than FSX or X-Plane but the fact remains that the clouds were considerably better before SU5 landed so I don't see why it shouldn't be called out for what it is, which whether we like it or not, is a downgrade made to run better on Xbox.

I think it is rather sneaky what has been done here with SU5 especially having promised that the sim would not be downgraded for PC users. Their silence says a lot considering all the community feedback.

Not the Xbox conspiracy theory again, it's probably a bug and will be fixed. 

Believe it or not, Asobo is not out to "get you" or "ruin your experience" with their updates. And they're not trying to degrade, cheapen or devalue the sim, just because they launched it on another platform! I don't know, where you'd get such cockamamie ideas, to be honest.

Keep some optimism, guys. It seems, that everything Asobo is doing, is constantly being "hung, dragged and quartered"... 😕

Whatever the reason, I see we agree on two facts:

1) cloud quality has been reduced for some reason

2) they need to restore the quality we had when we bought FS.

Yes, I can agree with that.
