Any possibility to get the satelite textures around airfileds and towns back?

It's such a shame to cover the unique look of this map with such a generic textures. Would Razbam consider option to remove some of the HardSplat textures of fields, or atleast give as option to do so? Especially around cities like Ushuaia and Puntas Arenas the visuals are much worse compared to EA release of the map

Completely agree.

It's puzzling why they replaced them in the first place.

If that's an example of the 'synthetic look' polled in another thread, then God help us all 😄 

Yes, I'm afraid most of people don't realize what they woted for, and expecting something like syria but in south America, that poll needs screenshot example what exatly it would look like. But that would take a complete rework of this map to look decent and cohesive.

The worst part is the original textures are to some extent still there and are simply covered with these ugly tiles. Could be even one of the reasons why it runs even worse after these updates.

Exactly!

Hence, my attempt of "campaigning" in that thread for some example screenshots..

Until now, all in vein..

If these screenshots where added, to indicate the 'synthetic look', the poll outcome would have been different.

Yeah, completely agree - especially with these areas.

Even if the synthetic one is a higher resolution texture, such that it doesn't look blurry from low altitudes, the lost colour accuracy and the lost details, IMO, more than makes up for it, to the point that satellite textures, even if lower resolution are the better way to go.

Which is why I haven't actually voted yet!

I'm still looking forward to using this map more as it develops, but I can't say I'm too happy if this is the way it is going. It would be good to get confirmation of what the devs are planning in this regard, i.e. is this the final state of these areas? How widespread will these artifacts be? And finally, why?

Razbam, thank you for reverting some of the areas back to sat textures. Ushuaia looks definitely better now!

 

I'm amazed at how quickly the developer reacted to this user feedback, it says a lot about Razbam's commitment to this Map. 👍
