Nope! In the dogfights I tried to have today after the new patch the AI was still pulling off insane rolls and other impossible maneuvers. It doesn't look like they touched the AI in this patch.

TBH, I'm more concerned with all my performance issues coming back right now than anything else. The game is just as slow as it was at launch now. Hopefully they fix it before releasing it upon the world.

I think it is OK if I quit my browser (chrome) especially if there is youtube or similar open.

sim won't start... wot's goin' on??


Edit...

Upon using my eagle like reading skills.... I saw that [right click] zip folder/ properties/ unblock , does indeed work

Thanks Luthier! Loving the Patch as always -

Couple of weird bugs though

- when i click fly, game disappears back to desktop, where i cant even see that clod is running on the task bar, just for 1 second, then game returns again and i'm in the cockpit, likewise when flying if i press escape, i go back to desktop briefly before returning to the game menu.

- Game now wont let me alt-tab out to desktop properly, it seems to stay running as well as what i alt tab to! -ie right now as im typing this post i can see my track IR is still working and im still technically in game - ie everytime i press the "p" button here in the browser to type this, my game unpauses! - weird Im in two programs at once! All my keystrokes are still working in game!

- New Player briefing screen is great before the missions - well done! The player plane loadout is great also, it sadly doesnt work though, whatever you enter doesnt register and you get the default settings for that mission anyway - great start though

- Stutters over land seem to have improved again which is brilliant!

- Multiplayer lobby - still no way to see who's on what team before you select a side.

Specs -

i5 2500 SandyBridge - 8GB RAM
ATI 4870
1920x200 @60Hz
Full Screen
TRACK IR 5

Settings pretty much on medium, no SSAO, no Vsync, no AA

The game still does not use more than 25% of the CPU, which I believe is the main hinderance to performance.

My perfromance is also cut into half with the new beta patch. The perfromance increase by the last offical patch is totally gone.

Same thing happening here

With mine it doesn't matter what I do, always drops to 400. I even opened a different game first to get the clocks up, then opened CoD. As soon as CoD started it dropped back to 400mhz. When I closed CoD, it went back up to 765.

Thank you 1C for kicking in the Vsync... when @ 60 fps, she is as smooth as a baby's behind - buildings and all. Buildings though, still sutter when loading

not too much of a FPS hit with AA x 4, which for the most appears to still work

Thanks for plane option screen/ briefing when going into quick mission... but how to get the selected and customised plane to stick? (won't take until exiting QM and going back in, albeit minus customisation)


still need to look at the pre-load/ cache setup as some controlpositions/ video/ console settings are still a bit funky going from one QM to the next QM

It doesn't work for me.
