Unlocked Framerate With VRR no longer working on Xbox

Hey all, having an issue here and not sure if it’s the game or my setup.

Currently, VRR seems to be working as usual, wether it’s Forum VRR or Freesync Premium. However, typically when VRR is activated on the Xbox, it would unlock the Framerate and you could typically get 60fps + when flying the skies on my Series X. However, starting up my game after the most recent update, VRR seems to no longer be working in this affect, and the game is now fixed to 30fps wether VRR is on or not.

I have tried adjusting my VRR settings from “always on” and “game only” to no avail. I use an LG G2 65” and there is a hidden “feeesync” menu, which shows the fluctuating Framerate (showing that VRR is working) and it seems to be a bug with the game.

Is anyone else having this issue on Xbox?

Yes. It’s gone. Xbox got the short stick with this update with all kinds of downgrades. I heard that even the Anti-Aliasing is gone, but I have no way to verify this. The LOD’s are downgraded etc.

During the beta, I had already convinced myself to accept the infuriating white dot more difficult workaround to hide it and even the downgraded graphics.

But now also Variable Refresh Rate not unlocking frames per second? That’s a HUGE direct punch in the stomach.

Never thought I would hate so much this 40th anniversary update.

Yea same issue. You can tell from the start that everything is now locked to 30 fps despite having a vrr tv. So disappointing

I noticed this right off the bat. Not only does the terrain look AWFUL and blurry now, the frames are terrible. VRR is messed up.

Any acknowledgement to this issue yet? It parallels the frustration of the terrible quality hit we took in terrain/lod as well.

By the way heres a zendesk response that wont acknowledge that this issue is a direct result of whatever was changed with SU11:

“This is a feature that we have no control over, so unfortunately, there isn’t anything we can do from our side.”

What a joke. Can’t regret uninstalling everything last week. If we are not import enough, Flight Simulator shouldn’t be for me. Graphics downgrade, persistent annoying white dot and now VRR not working.

Even though I do regret all the money spent in the Marketplace. At least my wallet is safe now.
