Lastnight I was incredibly happy with the patch.... though not as happy as the dev team suggested I would be. Seems it is that way for most on here.
Ok.... today I have seen a huge performance drop. I lowered my settings back to how they were pre-patch..... still appalling performance.
I lowered the settings to less than pre-patch.... still appalling performance.
Then along came the CTDs.....
I have also noticed that there are hardly any ground shadows, no cloud shadows whatsoever, the few ground shadows there are only seem to appear when directly underneath the plane. The sites are so dim they are almost impossible to see. Textures have been downgraded. Clouds, by the dev teams own admission, have been cut back drastically until they can be fixed......... is it any wonder there was a small performance boost? (That somehow only lasted a couple of hours!!!)
We were told there would be a HUGE patch and yet the size of the download is actually surprisingly small.
I feel I have to ask this.....
Has any work been done on this patch whatsoever or did everyone sit around for months, feed us false information and, at the last minute panic and actually just remove all the problem areas from the game and hope noone would notice?
I hate to say it but I feel utterly hoodwinked. I was actually teetering on the edge of "fanboy" status..... not now.
No faith left in the development team whatsoever.
Please make me change my mind. Is that too much to ask?
