What are you talking about? Do you run IE in background when flying or do not defragment after every patch?
Of course I did try the recent patch and still it is unplayable over cities.
FYI the system is i-2500k, ati hd6850, 6gb ram, win7 64bit and I play on a combination of high and low settings. Haven't turned SSAO off, but I don't expect to play on lowest settings with a brand new pc.
It has to be playable perfectly well in such a system.

PS. With this system I can play on highest video settings any other modern game without a simple problem.

I've achieved 130+ planes in a furball so far without detrimental effect to FPS, over land. 188 planes was too much. ParaB has had around 150+ before he saw slowdowns. Next test will be over London.

Were there any buildings in this furball?
Did you have to dogfight close to them?

Even duct tape can't fix stupid... but it can muffle the sound.

In game video settings screen right above Shadows you see Landscape Shadows (or shading).
