Well I can concur with what Flanker35M has described, he's pretty much nailed it on the head for what I am experiencing.

In terms of performance: Well I'm glad I didn't upgrade. I'm saving my money until the sim is refined a lot more. It's clear there are bugs in the sim.

Of particular note for me ...

Sound:
Surround Sound doesn't work, I only get two channels L&R. It does work however when I select Headphones ... weird.

When in training missions the instructors voice cuts out early before he finishes his sentence.

AI:
When in training missions, if you're too close to your final way point and its time for the instructor to take control, he'll do some crazy manoeuvre and plough right in to the ground trying to get to the end waypoint.

Graphics:
I'm seeing glitches / artifices all over the horizon, dark grey lines between the sea and the sky.

Stutters - well they're back and with a vengeance.

I've got CoDs graphics set to medium, and when flying over the ocean in free flight I get about 30 - 40fps. Flying over a port in France however is another story, it turns into a slide show, average of 3 fps.

I'm going to hold off flying seriously until some more updates are released. I still haven't found where I can turn off this epi filter :S but I'm not too fussed. For the moment I'm content with the fact that I've got CoD installed and running. I can live with doing free flight for a while and I'm happy to learn how the FM and DM works ... for now.
