New download is not IMO an upgrade but retrograde. :ranting2:
Bugs which were cleared in the BETA are now back in, too many to list.
I've now taken  'Horizons' off my Xmas wish list, to see if things improve.

Sadly I agree, I uninstalled mine after a couple of hours.
Back to flying FSX with FSEconomy again...

Apart from (what I thought) was the 10cr repair bug, I've not seen a single problem. Reading the release notes the 10cr is actually intentional "Enforce minimum of 10 credits to hull repair cost check".

The new power-plant damage mechanic makes Anaconda's a fair bit tougher. The flashing hostiles on radar makes it far clearer who is, or was, attacking you. The graphics are a lot smoother and the planet textures have improved. Fuel scooping is quicker. The menus have all had a polish. Multi-cannon tracers look much better. Audio for ship engines for other ships sounds different.

That was just what I noticed playing last night.

Having not played beta I cannot comment about bugs that were cleared in the beta stage (as I don't know what they were/are). Can you tell me what they are as I have yet to come across any game-killing bugs yet then I can look out for them and see if they happen for me.

Oddly enough I used to play FSX when I had a PC for gaming and I stopped playing that due to the medley of bugs.

Ok ok, I will install it again.

But please tell me how to find the new salvage missions. Spending evenings looking for the missions is not what I was expecting.

I have absolutely no idea! But come on TS and we'll look together. That's what dMw is all about!

The lack of Salvage missions must have been some kind of bug.

They show up now, Whohooo!
Finaly a career for me too!

The missions are simple, but it is possible to scoop things now, without the need to smuggle it.
What I have been waiting for a looong time.

Let see if it sticks with me this time.... :D
