| Svennoj said: No need to look far, it's noticed after every patch in FS2020. The game keeps getting downgrades, supposedly to get it running on Series S/X. It does run more stable now, slightly higher avg fps and a bit more conservative in memory management. However draw distance has suffered (and can't be modded back), terrain rendering has gotten worse (more simplified, more pop in, more visible transitions) night lighting has suffered and looks very arcady now, turbulence modeling has been dialed back, landing in cross winds made easier (odd sticky tires introduced) an clouds appear more pixelated at dawn and dusk or half covering the sun. Meanwhile many issues that have been there since day one haven't been fixed yet. |
I don't find this example particularly impressive.
Firstly I had been under the impression that the FS2020 "downgrades" were due to GeForce experience sticking its nose in where it doesn't belong, rather than due to any changes to the app itself.
Secondly there's a pretty tenuous link between a Series S (or Series X) version and any downgrades. The Series S exceeds the recommended requirements, and removing features from the engine wouldn't help with that problem even if it existed.
Don't disagree in principle though
