Yes, this was specifically tested and addressed as naryv mentioned @sukhoi.ru http://forum.1cpublishing.eu/showthread.php?t=31835

Please send more crashdumps and logs to let more issues be solved soon. Post annoying bugs at bugtracker and vote for them.

Guys, if you read the patch notes the purpose of this alpha-release is not to make our flying more comfortable or enjoyable but to collect crash-logs and crash-dump files. CTDs of different nature (and specific to user hardware) are hunted and fixed one-by-one as goes from naryv's comment @sukhoi.ru I refer to here http://forum.1cpublishing.eu/showthread.php?t=31835

They reworked the core of the engine (multi-threading, etc.) and only now they will start fixing bugs with our feedback. Disappointing ATM but still very promising.

Exactly my thoughts, it's a testing patch and nothing else. Treating it as finished gameplay material is only setting oneself up for disappointment.

Nobody is disputing the fact it's a alpha/beta patch or whatever. Those who are having problems are just telling the Devs it's failed for whatever reason. People may call that moaning or whatever else they like, but without this feedback there will be no results. People are obviously going to be disappointed because this alpha/beta has been built up so much to be the patch that finally makes the game playable.

Well, in all fairness moaning and feedback are very different. For example...

Feedback: "Tried the new patch today. I encountered such and such issue when doing this and that thing, here's a screenshot/crash logs/ how to reproduce the bug, here's my PC specs/driver settings and here's my in-game detail settings."

Moaning: "Oh my god, this is worse than before, i'm getting less FPS now, this patch is a joke!"

:-P

This last sentence is not true it is not worse it is simply not better. I never have any crash of my system or of the launcher or maybe a long time ago before the first patch.
I think this patch is made to correct the most obvious errors with some planes modeling errors and for making this game more afordable to mid range PC's. Do not forget also this is not the final version of the patch.
Give the DEV. team some time to make all this work. It is not a easy task. We are far from the 320x200 pixels from 1989 "Their finest hour" from "Lucasfilm".:rolleyes:
