Xbox SU4 beta, horrible ground texture, unsharp and blurry, worldwide

Not what I’m experiencing.

I’m experiencing a mix of blurry vs non blurry

Blurry does seem to be more of a bandwidth issue tho as some places are amazing and very crisp

I have noticed some blurred textures even posted a video of what that looked like landing at YSSY and some ground textures, however this last update has significantly (by far) improved performance and many scenery textures. I have seen amazing views around Sydney, Nice, Marseille, Venice, I am of an opinion that Central European scenery is one of the best looking. All this being streamed content and without performance impact. If not already perhaps try from the scratch

delete the game and all reserved space everything
restart xbox
reinstall sim
restart xbox
then disable everything except all world scenery (or desired ones) and maybe pick two airports and NO other addons

The whole planet is not done at the same level of detail. It has always been like that.

Unless you are seeing areas that were once good and are now in lower resolution then that would be an issue.?

Oh I’m aware just usual flight area sometimes has a lesser quality like I said I put this down to bandwidth and internet on my end

With the release of beta 1.6.34.0 on Xbox, there has indeed been an overall improvement in stability, but at what cost?
The landscape LOD is increasingly poor with each update and is getting very close to that of 2020. In some cases, it’s even lower. There are dotted lines on the sea that form a series of square enclosures that are absolutely unsightly, and the stuttering near airports remains, albeit less so.
Forums always recommend disabling something or reducing the graphical detail. But what’s the point on a console?
All this takes away the charm of the graphics that were so touted as stunning during the 2024 hype.
I wonder if it makes sense to have spent over $200 on software and add-ons to get a sort of 2020 upgrade a year later that barely runs decently.
Obviously, the Xbox Series X can’t have the performance of a PC, but it’s still a next-gen console.
Or as I’ve said in the past, 2024 can’t be run on Xbox without huge compromises compared to even a low-end PC, but then that should have been made clear at launch.

It’s looking good for me. Excellent LOD coming out of Tampa in the 777
