Can we please get an official update on the FPS / stuttering bug

ONLY when he is prompted to do so or asked to collaborate.

This is how organizations figure out what customers want from the product, polls influence product design, product management and so forth. No way anyone fixes a specific issues that arises from something you decided to do in order to meet the customer’s wishes by making polls.

And sorry, but suggesting that such issues may be resolved by giving 4-5 possible responses is not exactly troubleshooting and not at all scientific.

Next sentence you contradict yourself. This is EXACTLY what I mean. And this is exactly what I and so many if not all others have never been asked. Questions that target the function within the software that is believed to cause the issue AFTER I gathered the info from my generic questions. Top down principle.

I have been in and out of flight siming for the past 25 years. And Lurked/participated in the forums related to those various sims. I don’t believe I have ever seen an outcry for help as large as this. Calling it a small sample size is kind of ridiculous.

But hey; everyone has there bad days. I am just going to assume something upset you and you weren’t thinking clearly when you posted that.

100% agree with your point of view. Despite of there is the obvious issue (me personally experiencing 1-2fps in affected location) it doesn’t stop me from enjoying the sim. For example I performed awesome flight in C172 (steam gauges) from Salzburg (LOWS) to Innsbruck (LOWI) without single stutter. And my experience was very close to what I was feeling during my real flight in real C172 (as a real world pilot) at the same area. I was amazed by magnificent Alps views, valley, VFR navigation, clouds, light, wind.

So there is still a lot of space that could be used. Understand that many people just suddenly and immediatelly need to fly in affected areas, because they know them from their real life, want to explore them or just “by a principle” I need 100% working product what I paid for (despite that they never flown there before knowing that there is the actual issue) :smiley:

:roll_eyes: ok whatever you win, sky is falling, game is broken, everything is terrible.

am I doing it right?

Maybe I should go on all the other 900 threads and ask:

“HoW aRe YoU eVeN hAvInG tHiS cOnVo WhEn ThE sIm Is CoMpLeTeLy UnPlAyAbLe”

Hey, “tit for tat” approach here. :smiley:

There is something wrong with these forums. Just look at the reaction to the new CRJ by everyone unwilling to even read the first page of the guides and manuals. Never had the phrase pilot error been so apt

Reading is hard. lol

I wonder how many of those are the ones that were ■■■■■■■■ in threads about study level planes that there was no such thing, this was a video game, etc… :stuck_out_tongue:

I am not really sure how you can claim that the game is working for the majority of players. What is your statistical source for this please? I am suspecting that because you yourself are not having any issues then maybe there are no serious issues for the majority of users.

I have been on this forum since 28 July and I cannot recall this degree of dissatisfaction with Asobo or the sim’s performance. I am not going to say that the majority of simmers are dissatisfied at the moment because I really don’t know and I am not party to any statistics even if they exist. However, looking at other forums (e.g. AVSIM) and this forum I am fairly confident that a significant (i.e. more than a minority) number of simmers are having actual issues. We are not all making it up and there are a fair number of us.

It’s really great that you are having no problems but to claim that only a small minority of us are experiencing issues is extremely bold and in my opinion highly questionable.

Let us hope that when you do have problems with a future update (and believe me this time will come) other simmers who are not affected are a little more sympathetic and understanding than yourself :slightly_smiling_face:

Okay mr internet psychologist. Thank you for analyzing precisely the emotion I must have been feeling at the time of that comment. Sarcasm aside, this is probably one of the dumber interactions I’ve had on here, but I’m seeing more and more frequency of comments such as yours that are totally irrelevant to the topic at hand and rather a sad attempt at a personal remark. I mean seriously, what possibly in your mind was the usefulness of suggesting I’m “upset and not thinking clearly” other than just trying to provoke? Act like an adult.

Now, it’s funny that you’re accusing me of not being aware of how the internet works, yet you’re seemingly unaware of the fact that performance issues can be widespread even if not everyone is reporting on it. It’s as if extrapolating whatever you learned in some introductory statistics class to make a broad, ill founded assertion about the state of a piece of software. The absence of the majority of people reporting an issue isn’t evidence that it doesn’t exist, even in widespread form.

Most people simply don’t care enough to report it, simple as that. There’s enough evidence out there of people with top of the line specs to prove that this sim has plenty of performance issues, namely as it pertains to stutters and largely brought on by these last set of updates. It’s also hilarious with just how much confidence you state that the core is not broken. Now, I’m not saying it is, but you seem awfully sure of the games internal code and how everyone else’s sim is performing despite having zero evidence of it. Anyway I’m done here; it’s clear you’ll do whatever you can to deny the existence of a problem and just seek to agitate others by suggesting they’re not in the right state of mind

Isn’t it amusing to see people write “the majority of people have no problems”?

How in the world can you make statements like that? Have you taken a poll of all users? The more likely fact is that most people who bought the game play it and accept it the way it is and do not bother to discuss it on here. Based on numbers that I have seen, most purchasers do not post on here.

For those who perceive that their game is fine, great, move on. Those who have issues have not just a right, but an obligation to let it be known by whatever methods they choose, within the guidelines of the medium on which they are doing it.

To some of moderators, I’m proposing to close this topic - this discussion is leading to nowhere (again) :slight_smile:

Back to OP and topic title - We will get an official update as soon as it is available - @OlieTsubasa443, Community Manager, already stated this in the official post two days ago, see [Issue] Performances issues

Mute it then and you wont be bothered with it.

Roger, sir! >>> Muted :wink:

As a software dev myself (not in video games), I guess I see these things a little differently than most. Part of my job involves fixing production issues, so I see my fair share of bug tickets. Reproducing the issue reliably is nearly always the first step. When you can’t easily do that, you look for any and all information provided by users and testers hoping for some clues.

And the lack of transparency is very normal. After the issue is recognized and accepted into the current workflow, that doesn’t mean than any definitive information about how and when it will be resolved is available yet. A code fix needs to get into a test build and validated by QA as resolved before any communication is possible.

And a word about the QA process. Let’s say that the FS QA team is 100 testers, which would be a huge team by most standards. Only one or two might be assigned to test a very particular area of the sim.

There isn’t a room full of experienced pilots flying around everywhere in the sim world noting every bug and discrepancy they find. That wouldn’t be useful as you would just get duplicate reports of issues already in the backlog. The unfortunate reality is that only when thousands of simmers get their hands on the release do they find these things. And no matter how much money the developer puts into it will change that.

Well, there have been 244 posts at the time of this comment so that might suggest that it is a fairly hot topic and of interest to quite a few people here on the forum.

If the OP really feels that we now have a solution to his/her query then by all means I would concur. Otherwise, I personally feel that it would be beneficial to keep this open until a solution has been finally arrived at :slightly_smiling_face:

“Thank you for your feedback and patience while we’re working on these issues.”
That might be enough, IMHO :slight_smile: But of course, it’s up to OP, you’re right.

That’s exactly why we need a public beta for these updates.

There’s already a public beta and we are all participating in it.

It certainly feels that way doesn’t it.
