Beta Patch – and we mean BETA!

[FS~Phat]

Edit: For some reason the graphics settings werent being applied properly and I didnt realise it till after I restarted. Havent gotten used to the graphics yet to know the difference.
In any case the game is defintely better and smoother but still has a way to go.

I have 50 FPS in cockpit with some stutter.. and the usual hitch as more textures are loaded for the landscape but not as bad as before.
No longer turns into a slideshow when firing on planes or bombers.

I have everything maxed out @ 1920x1080 including 4x AA except for unlimited buildings.
In London I get 30 FPS in cockpit and drops occasionally to just above 20 or so but mostly smooth once all the textures have loaded.
I have a 4.6Ghz i7 950 with 6GB DDR3 Ram @ 2000Mhz 9-9-9-24 and 4 x 5870 @ 1000/1300. The games uses less than 30% CPU on a single core and keeps 1GPU core pegged at 99%.

Its actually just playable now at least offline anyway, good job guys!!!!!!!!!!!!
