3.3PTU thoughts

[albert]

I’m happy with the game performance now. With 3.3.0aa it became a smooth responsive experience I felt I could trust.

Flight is very enjoyable. FoIP I felt was patchy but I need to try it again with the most recent patch especially for general TrackIR style head look. But I’m positive about this.

I’m a little concerned about the time it takes to do stuff.

So simple things we will have to do continuously:

1) plot a quantum jump plan - selecting hops is hopeless
2) above because of the map having terrible zoom levels  so distinguishing objects is fiddly to the extreme.
3) Jumping to 100+ Km out and having to fly way too long/ far to get to your objective
3) predictable same npcs lurking

I’m sure these are all points they will vastly improve. If they expect 3.3 to be the beginning of the PTU though, most people will be bored in a day or two.

Any other feedback?

My feedback, none at the moment, I need to change my graphics card as SLI is literally killing this game for me at the moment.   I'm dead jealous even of your selecting hops problem, I'd love to have the chance!

Well you better get on with that soon mate. I think you are the best candidate for CEO/ Chairman! Now that Musk err I mean Smilo has moved aside!
