It sounds like theVRpilot is making excuses for the terrible textures. The problem with that is this is what Microsoft and Asobo by way of their "influencers" promised us. With all the footage demonstrating blades of grass and individual trees the bar was set as to what we should expect from those textures. All of the new photography modes and appeals to tourism within the sim reinforced these expectations. Now all we get is what feels like a used car salesman trying to explain why the car he sold us is a lemon.

I really can't understand you VR pilot. The ground textures look apocalyptic the trees awful as well, and you fly direct behind an airliner and no wake turbulence kick you away... so, beside the the fact they invite you to pretest at grand canyon, I can't understand you and I can't see any reason to buy 2024 yet. I'm disappointed because this sim have a lot of potential. But 140 Euro for a deluxe version in alpha, sorry no way. For example: Other games with that amount of bugs (alpha/beta) will costs around 30 Euro on Steam. I'm looking forward that they do a lot of improvements, for now I don't pay that amount of money for it, maybe later. Just my opinion.
@theVRpilot4 күн бұрын
I think you summarized it really good! And this is why I’m sharing it off. I think it helps show what is good and What is bad. The apocalyptic melting assets will likely not go away, but will improve with time as this is AI made. Now there are so many other areas that the sim has improved but I might not be showing here but I’ll keep doing videos. Unfortunately it feels like the sim launched and it wasn’t fully ready. My biggest issue was VR performance and load times. Yes those things are improved for me so happy. 2024 isn’t really in a great state, but as you see people use it, if it had something that you really want then consider it, otherwise wait. I know many people on both sides of the fence, and neither is wrong. I trust they will work and fix things soon. Hopefully this will be another no man’s sky lol

The biggest improvement for me in MSFS 2024 is across the board (VR and non-VR) in complex areas such as New York. The framerate is more stable and the overall experience acceptable. I guess the changes under the hood (like multithreading) helping to utilize my hardware combo better.
