It’s abvious you guys fixed that in this beta. Can’t we discuss any possible stability and/or performance issues here? I’m sure you would like to hear some feedback?
Is it worth staying on the insider program permanently for the latest builds. I’m on Xbox but not insider member
I think this thread is limited to this issue, might have to check the beta forums for that.

Hello @UnitedArt,
This thread is about one topic only, the Xbox LOD bug. If you would like to discuss other unrelated topics, please start a new thread or post in one that already exists for that topic.
Thanks,

Not exactly.
It is worth staying with the beta if you have issues that need fixing or if you enjoy participating in a beta.
If your sim is working how you want it to, then maybe skip a beta. It might break something!
Also, the public version has more people flying, so if you like to see other folks flying, the public version has more traffic.
So, I recommend this beta for anyone tired of the LOD issues on Xbox. And I would recommend leaving the beta after it releases publicly, as your issue would be fixed AND you would get the fullest live experience in the public version.

First of all, I would like to say thank you to MS and Asobo taking this issue serious and deliver a fix earlier then expected.
Just did some tests and I can confirm that LOD is back to normal and terrain looks sharp again.
Here and there I still have some popups in far distances but I guess this is expected behaviour. Thanks for making this Sim look great again on Xbox

I’m glad LOD is fixed with this build. Is it worth getting this build now or should I just for the public version? Aside from limited number of players, what else is the downside of staying on beta?

The other downside? Betas, especially early builds, might break things.
Contrary to popular belief, most major beta issues get fixed before public release, but still, the early builds often cause a few problems.
But if you enjoy the forum life here, even that can be fun, as you can report and discuss bugs and issues. I dunno, I kinda like betas now. But it does seem like I am IN a beta far more often than I am not these days. Sometimes I miss the live traffic. Seeing someone online in beta is a far rarer occurrence.
That said, the beta servers are usually great because they have to host far fewer players.
Anyway, in this case, if you want your LOD and textures back, this is the only way for the next month to see the fix.

Out of interest : isn’t that a bit early to tell, and which have you tested and how? Cold&dark etc or just start at the runway…

Where should I fly over with this new build to see the improvements being made?
Anywhere with mountains, photogrammetry, or textures. So over land, without clouds.

Does it include 3rd party landmarks ?
Only how far away you can see them.
Look, if you didn’t notice the LOD issue, you might not notice what was fixed.
