Default just switched back to beta 15527-waoh!

i just switched back to the previous beta patch because i wanted to fly the E4 again....man after some days with 15866 i totally forgot how beautiful the cockpits were.all the nice reflections and not that contrasted looks way more convincing.
and also the performance is way more smooth again with 15527.although i have pretty much the same fps average(a small increase of 2fps with 15527), i have way less stutters!also the crosshair is much better visible in the bf again!
i will stick with it until another beta or the official patch comes out, and pray that they will get back to good things the game once had...

EDIT: after a second try i realised that flyby sounds from inside the cockpit sound is different as well with 15527. realistic or not if,whether you should hear other engines or not, the flyby sounds in 15527 are much more convincing, because the doppler effect is more noticeable!another feature which in my view should COME BACK!!

Yeah,I can't see how the recent poll on cockpit colours came out in favour of the latest patch,I too personally agree the latest cockpit colours are crap,but unfortunately Luthier has stated they will remain this way!

What we had initially was fine,perfect even,if you like and yet the devs in their infinite wisdom decided to spend time on changing their look,when they could have used that time to sort out the blessed comms

So there you go,it would seem we're stuck with them.

i think the poll on the cockpit colours had that outcome, because many people didnt even recognize the sudden lack of reflections on the gauges...but thats only an attempt to understand their vote.going back to 15527 really shows me that the latest beta patch is nothing but cr..
sorry for beeing negative but thats the way i see it.i just cant get it why the devs did such changes...really frightening

Try with no beta patch at all, cockpit color are noticeably better than with the past beta patch

Didn't realize they had taken reflections out. Compared the 2 betas and I agree that the first beta had a much better look to it. I knew something was missing just thought it had something to do with the drastic colors and contrast change.
