Hartsblade Posted April 16, 2021 Posted April 16, 2021 I know that a number of folks have been reporting drops in FPS and impacts on performance with the launch of 2.7, but the one thing I noticed right a way was a loss of image quality and sharpness. I wholly understand that this may be an intended result of the current Cloud Tech and some sort of atmospheric effect, but I want to point it out just incase this is not as intended. The change in quality was so noticeable in 2.7 that I installed Stable just so I could make a direct visual comparison. I ran an Free Flight Instant Mission in the Spitfire on The Channel map with labels on, and the difference is immediate. Markers and aircraft that were visible on spawn in stable were not visible on 2.7 until closing the distance quite a bit, and once the chevrons or labels appear they are visibly blurry compared to Stable. Spotting distance has also decreased. And now some screenshots, with the note that seeing things in the mirror is not as obvious as seeing them in the HMD To be sure I was comparing apples to apples I copied my settings from BETA and dropped them into Stable. My machine specs are in my signature. In game settings: Spoiler Stable vs Beta (you may need to zoom in to see the difference) Spoiler If anyone can give me some pointers to get better images of what we actually see in the HMD, please let me know. These images don't really express how different the to builds are in regards to clarity and sharpness. If you have the time I suggest testing for yourselves. 2 AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D 8-Core Processor | Asus TUFF nvidia GeForce RTX 4090 OC | Asus ROG Crosshair VII Dark Hero | 64GB Crucial Ballistix DDR4-3600 RAM | Windows 10 Pro x64 | Virpil MT-50 CM2 Throttle | Virpil Alpha on WarBRD base | Virpil Ace 1 Rudder Pedals | Saitek Pro Flight Throttle Quadrant (x2) |Acer x34 P 3440 x 1440 | Pimax Crystal Light VR | DCS on NVME
Linx Posted April 16, 2021 Posted April 16, 2021 Me and several squadron mates are having the same issues. Any response or help from ED would be most welcome.
Kovacs Posted April 16, 2021 Posted April 16, 2021 Yes, it's a reality, I noticed that while flying on the Syria map too.
