mapping two buttons, one for increase the other for decrease pitch, is not working.

having it on a slider/wheel with a center is.

And if you havent got a slider or wheel?

That's a good question.

Besides that, micro stutters are back over land, really bad stuttering now over LeHavre, lower performance over London than with previous versions both in Full and Pseudo.

In addition to that, still no GUI fixes for custom loadouts in quick and single mission, still wrong prop on the Spit MkIa, an unflayable 109 if you don't map pitch to a slider... Seriously... Hope you will do better next time.

Lol when you put it like that..

If this game reacts that differently to different configs as to what were seeing they have a MAMMOTH task in front of them..

I dont understand coding/programming etc so i have no idea but to state what has been fixed of which their sure about to then it not happen and not happen in a big way..Wow

Does this patch have the right to be called a 'retail' patch?

Yep, and the writing is on the wall that it will not finish in 1c's favor in the long run, if that's the way they want to go. It definately is hard for me to understand how in all world they are testing their fixes... Seriously, they should post the specs of their test rig so we can see what we will have to excpect.

Just noticed the new amazing flicker effect I have on the shadows now, geeez. I'll stop posting before I start ranting, lol.

Yeah, I can see that writing on the wall, too. Until now, the mantra literally is "1 step forward, 2 steps back". I severely doubt that CoD will be a capable flight sim 6 months after release, as people were reassured so many times by 'believers' in maddox games.
The fact that they ran into major trouble when struggling to implement True Full Screen Mode leads me to think that either their codebase is botched or their programming abilities are not exactly stellar. Or both.
Now, what to expect for my CoD purchase? I really don't know...this patch did absolutely nothing for me; the game was running okay since almost release and major functionality is still missing and untouched. If there is no major re-thinking, things look bleak from my perspective.

I've also seen what I think is enemy planes skipping large distances in front/behind me, which may be what's causing the arrows to 'glitch' (if the game suddenly realise the plane you're turning toward is actually now behind you!) - but I can't be sure.

Anyone else getting anything like this?

What's the problem with that? My 'arrows' behave like that since day 1 and I don't think they're buggy. If you turn 'into' the arrows, the corresponding planes come into your field of view and the arrows aren't needed anymore. It just might be that the planes are still to far away for visual contact... yes, it's tuned that way; arrows appear first, at a time when the actual plane is not yet visible.
So don't cook up home-made 'bugs' please... the devs might jump on it feverishly, 'fixing' it for a month or two while neglecting anything else and we're back at the situation from above

This is a simulation! Turn Icons and Labels Off

Joined multi-player server and immediately had no sound from the start. I have experienced this before intermittantly but it seems patch has made things worse.

It is unacceptable to have no sound in a simulator/game.

So very very disappointing, I have tried to be patient with this game but I have to confess that whilst this game has potential it was fraudulently sold way too early. I have never experienced a worse software release than this.

Mine have never behaved like that before, I can assure you. Arrows have never been present for an aircraft that wasn't within or almost within visual range (and hence displaying, or about to display name/type etc), now they jump all over the place. I'm well aware they disappear once you have the aircraft they point to within your FOV, now they actively point to aircraft that don't exist - I've checked this with the in-flight map and no aircraft are present in the indicated direction.

It wasn't present in either beta. Not sure if it only affects the player 'team' or not as I've not been chasing friendly planes.

If you've had it like that since the start that's your issue, it's not how it's previously performed for me. Don't get all whiny/up the arse about it, all bug reports are useful to some extent, especially if new effects are being observed. I'm sure Luthier and co are quite capable of prioritizing their workload on their own.

With the new Pitch control in the BF 109, it´s kinda weird now since the pitch control is either on UP or DOWn al lthe time, making a control of the prop. pitch impossible.

S!

Did smoothen things, but had first Launcher.exe crash after running Black Death track. So cleared Cache, restarted computer and worked again. Still get occasional pauses/stutters while the game loads(or whatever). Especially around buildings, sometimes above water.

Black Death gave lower FPS average than before. Dropped from 34-37 to 30-32. Also seems the view in BD was more zoomed out. Anyone noticed this? Shadows flicker at distance but if you look at them within "the circle of LOD" they most of times do not. Three blue stripes are in the horizon.

Step towards right direction, but will wait a few patches before making any conclusions. Would be happy to have the AMD related issues sorted as I want to try CrossFire

More testing to commence..
