Hmmm. While delay is frustrating. In a way I hope the rumor is correct and would prefer an official statement. I say that because then there’s still hope for updated imagery to come.
@Vibstronium The only think I can think of is I read a post after the global event that Jorg said the shared world would be delayed 1-2 months. I remember that for sure. But I thought I heard it was said that the new world would be delayed for 2020 only, thus the two sims would have different aerials for a while. But maybe im wrong or it changed because clearly a number of people reporting not seeing updated views or cities as shown from the global event slide show.
I have a separate wish list post to expand photogrammetry for Chicago west of ohare. My hometown. I was excited as the global event maps alluded to this area being improved. So I’m holding out hope it does.
