It is so frustrating ...

Optimizing basically means taking more stuff out the game to try and get it to run.

In computer science, program optimization or software optimization is the process of modifying a software system to make some aspect of it work more efficiently or use fewer resources. In general, a computer program may be optimized so that it executes more rapidly, or is capable of operating with less memory storage or other resources, or draw less power.

I agree, but along with optimizing they've had to remove some features for better frame rates. I'm sure Tree understands this, he just enjoys twisting meanings for another opportunity to trash the developers.

Yep, perferfectly aware of this. But posted just because:

A) There are readers on this forum too new to be aware of the 'Tree-ism'
B) A wiki-slap always feels good, especially when a term in question is so violated as in this context. I seriously doubt any features are being dropped anymore this late as even the leaked beta showed pretty good fps's on a mid-range pc during low level flight.

Thats why we are being inundated with all the official in game video's a month away from release.
