I can't imagine they won't turn it all back on for release. Probably ramping up the stress test for the data streaming. Keep assuming lol don’t get your hopes up.
October 12, 20241 yr BeyondATC works (except radio autotune and traffic injection), though it's obviously still reading your 2020 scenery. 9 minutes ago, UAL4life said: Keep assuming lol don’t get your hopes up. Stop being such a pessimist. Edited October 12, 20241 yr by Tuskin38

I guess it's possible they don't turn on the biggest bragged-about feature so far by the developers (the procedural ground detail) and they leave the photogrammetry loading at a lower resolution than MSFS 2020. I just doubt it.

Wait so you agree the current comparisons are done unfairly and loosely and still want comparisons? What purpose would it serve? it's not representative of the final release much less using all the addons you usually would.
October 12, 20241 yr 2nd boot up this morning. Loaded really fast compared to yesterday. It seems to cache itself (if that is the correct term) every time its booted and runs better. Noticed even better performance this morning and things looked a little better. Introduced live weather and the clouds are improved as is the lighting. In fog its kind of dark and menacing instead of bright and optimistic feeling if that makes any sense? No issues during shut down. Yesterday it kind of crashed on shut down but not today! I wish they extended the test out 1 week. I have a feeling for those that have reported issues or dissatisfaction today will likely be having less issues and be much happier in a week from now.
