Patch Beta 2 - v15866 - October 5, 2011

[David198502]

just went back to previous beta patch 15527, which showed me that the beta patch 15866 is nothing but crap....
-colours of the landscape are debateable, but all the members who live in that area claim that the previous beta patch colours are more convincing
-cockpits are drastically overcontrasted and lost all reflections(big step backwards)
-crosshair of the 109 is almost invincible when played with an FOV of 90° or higher(big step backwards)
-performance slightly decreased and stutters are way more noticeable now again
-flyby sounds, whether realistical or not, are now not as convincing anymore, because of the loss of the doppler effect

most irritating is that luthier stated that the colours are to stay that way...thats rubbish

If that be the case, then there isn't much point in going back really.. when the proper patch comes, and the colours are remaining the same then its a matter of just wearing it.

[David198502]

sorry but i dont understand what you are trying to say?

[Trooper117]

You can't stay on the beta patch forever, and if what you say is true, that Luthier has said the colours are here to stay, then when the real patch (the next one) comes, the same colours will still be there..
So, will you stay with the beta, probably not as most people and servers will move on with the times.. so you will probably have to change as well, rubbish or not.
It may not be ideal, as I liked the original cockpits for instance, but I'll switch to the new patch when it comes all the same..

...true i will have no choice in the long run.
and maybe my post was a bit harsh, but i just cannot understand their decisions made with the beta beta patch, while the previous beta had such huge improvements...why ruin things which were perfect?

[Trooper117]

The strange thing is, I can't get my rig to play on the previous beta, but on the present one it works just fine (touch wood).. so for me, at the moment its beta 2 or nothing.

I hope that when the glass reflection returns it will look better.

[David198502]

well one can only hope that the reflections come back at all.
what puzzles me is the post from luthier on page 14 where he states that the colours are here to stay...
