The unfortunate turth

[JG52Krupi]

Exactly what features have they removed with patches?

Also you seem to have ingored what this alpha patch is for... Namely capturing and reporting crashes that they are trying to find.

Honestly i just dont have any faith in them fixing these problems anymore, all this time and now they say "just a few more days to optimize the grass, trees and clouds" who they kidding? we were told the trees, grass and buildings were already optimized 100% in one of the first patches, remember?

How many times have we heard "fixed AI commands" no they didn't, they just took the broken ones out.

CLOD seems to be going backwards regarding looks, they keep chopping stuff out or braking features, its not funny anymore.

One of the first patches broke the sound engine, remember having to turn off trees to have sound?? how can trees affect sound??

The next patch fixed the sound but introduced the CTD for alot of people.

The last patch put us back to alpha stage, has done nothing to some of the problems from day one, granted it a step forward with the under the hood fixes but CTD's remain for alot of people.

Honestly it looks like they are chasing their tails round and round and round.

You can just forget them adding dynamic weather, coops or any other major feature for years, its just not going to happen.

I would bet my life 99.9% of the "moaners" just want to fly a working sim, i know i do.

Spot on and some people on here wonder why people are moaning. I would just like to know what it is they have supposed to have fixed? It's not the stuttering because it still remains as bad, it's not the clouds or grass and it's not even the FPS or the CTD. So what is it?

Maybe not for you but ~50% have had an improvement, I am one of them better fps, only one ctd.

If your having CTD report them.

Can you put up a video with FPS and fly through some clouds and over grass while fighting enemy and I'll start to believe it if I see it. I just cannot see how a rig with my capabilities can not cut it where as yours can, I got 11 FPS through clouds lol. My specs are below. What are yours?

i7 930 overclocked 4.0ghz
Geforce 680GTX
4 gig ram
Raptor HD

Yes they have removed them in the ALPHA PATCH as they are still trying to get them working in the new engine....!!!

I have everything on high apart from buildings which is on medium... I have tried original textures but my gpu does not have enough VRAM, shadows roads and grass are also on.

I think the issue is they have to sort the engine out to achieve these other things, why fix something in the short term if you are going to have to redo it later because you rewrote the engine. That is my view anyhow.
