OMFG. Now that I’ve had a little time to actually fly, I’m even more impressed.
The graphics have improved immensely (I can hardly wait to see what 4.37 brings). The FPS have improved by ~30% on my 10 year old machine, even thought the airbases and landscape are so much more detailed and the quantity of trees/grass is incredible. TFR flights are way more satsifying.
The switch between 2D and 3D is much faster than it used to be (at least 2x, for me).
The images during the 3D transition are sharper and more beautiful than ever.
The increased F-16 functionality is incredible. (I hope to have time one day to sort out all of the new lighting options…)
The distinction between LANTIRN/SNIPER capabilities (that SNIPER no longer permits TFR) is baffling, at first, but ultimately genius.
And I’ve only begun to explore. I can’t wait to see what improvements there are to the ATO PKG planning when I begin my first 4.36 campaign.
I haven’t yet figured out the changes to setting STPTs on targets, but I’ll sort it. (I’m amazed that there are no threads on this topic as yet. The change in the RECON mode dialogs is intense…) And I’m sure I’ll find the per-plane targeting immensely satisfying when I do.
You guys continue to far exceed all expectations WRT verisimilitude (YES, I used that word!). Can I please, please, please buy you a beer or three?!
