😂 How can it be that 1440p is more eye candy than 4K to me?

Lower res can often look better. It depends on the fidelity of the source material. Lower res can give a more coherent picture, while sharper res makes the lacking areas stand out. Many remasters on blu-ray suffer from this.

The human brain is also very good in filling in the gaps, which is why games in dark settings tend to look better than those in bright conditions. ‘Imagination’ fills in the rest. In many places FS2020 also looks better in fog and low light conditions. Bright sunny skies reveal all the bad spots.

I play on a 1080p screen, down sampled from 1620p, sharpening turned off, looks great.

You are definitely not alone! I play on a Samsung Odyssey G9 which is a 49" 1440 at 240 HZ and it looks absolutely syupid. Makes 4K look like standard HD to me now lol

That’s the thing.The ultra sharp of 4K seems to spoil the immersion,instead of adding to it like for example it does in other games,more fantasy like.
Now i am experimenting in 4K with slider set to 70 but still…it seems too sharp
I can’t be at 30.000ft and see the ground like it’s next to me.
And for heavens sake.What’s there to have 4K ? The buildings who are textured like a ps1 game ?

The planes basically, nothing else is ‘4K proof’ In many places ground textures are so poor 480p would be better! I always fly low though, but as you said, from 30,000ft the ground doesn’t look ultra sharp either.

Make sure you turn sharpen off in usercfg.opt, otherwise the games just keeps adding detail (noise) to make it seem sharper.
