Performance has improved for me, but not drastically, maybe around 5fps, will need more time and tinkering the settings to get it smooth, still having slight pauses, so I'm still setting the priority in task manager.
Appreciate the quicker loading times and the start however.

Does anyone else find that when they use one of the aircraft with a glass cockpit e.g. the DA40, 20 or the C208 it doesn't have their route showing on the right hand side (the screen with the map). I'm sure this is only since the patch came out.
I noticed yesterday when I planned a route it didn't show up in the map in the 787, looks like a new bug.
Ok, so now it's stopped CTD'ing I can confirm that performance improvement is massive on my system, the stutters and loading pauses are almost entirely gone and it is very playable.Performance appears to have improved for me, at least until I click 'ready to fly' at which point it crashes to desktop
Well I still can't get the patch to finish downloading. Over 6Gb worth to go and the file it's got to now just gets to 2% downloaded then aborts back to 0%.
Frankly I've thrown in the towel until MS/Asbooboo sort this out. (Ticket opened with Zendesk FWIW).

Iv come into a new bug In the A320at least , At random times all my cockpit screens either turns the brightness down by themselves or complety turn themselves off lol...This patch is a complete mess if you ask me
Performance wise I'm confused.
Running on my laptop, the GPU is at 99%, CPU around 35%. 100% scaling at 1080P and 150% nets about the same framerate, I'm running between 25-35 with everything cranked as high as it'll go.
Does this point to lack of optimization in game?
Secondly, scenery, does anyone find the UK mediocre in terms of scenery generation, and in cities compared to that of USA or Japan, I'm wowed in general but you fly over japan or some parts of USA and WOW.

My GamePass expires on Monday. Ideally, I now want to get Premium Deluxe on Steam but looks like I would have to pay full price. CD Keys have it for GBP96.99 but currently out of stock.
Anyone know of any deals? Don't really want to wait for next Steam sale. Might just say sod it and get it on Steam but GBP89.99 for Microsoft key on CD Keys is tempting...

Not going to lie, quite impressed how well this actually runs on my system, I let it auto decide on what settings it thinks would be good for my system and it decided "high end", at 1440p,I thought hmm Il probably have to knock some settings down when I actually try it in game but no runs actually very nicely didn't notice any lag or stutters.
Likewise.
Especially after so many years of FSX/P3d and XP11 chugging along in a stuttering mess.
Running 1440p high and it looks utterly stunning and runs beautifully.
Same. Works OK if you start a new bush trip but at the moment you can't continue an in-progress one. Such a disaster of a patch, I've had so many CTD with it too.

Not had any CTD's yet, just the main thread randomly bugs out and locks my FPS at 13 since this latest patch, spamming the change view button or look down button usually unlocks the FPS again, but it's nearly constantly doing this and making it unplayable tbh.
Having realised my installation is damaged due to the patch failing to finish downloading, I had no option but to use the Steam verify local files which has then triggered a full reinstall. There is no option to just repair or reinstall the damaged files.
Unfortunately to prevent the downloads tripping out, I'm having to use Net Limiter to keep the d/l speed no more than 500kb/s - which is going to take over 50 hours to reacquire 102Gb of files.
A total disgrace, for the money they are charging Asobo and MS should have servers capable of taking a reasonable download speed. Whole game is a behemoth and a farce - really wish now I had stuck with my refund.

Had a weird experience yesterday. Was trying to go for a fly around in the King Air, but it was like the alternators weren't working and eventually the battery just died and I lost avionics (restarted the flight and same thing). I was starting from cold and dark, but pretty sure I didn't miss anything (double checked with the checklist). Anyone else have that?
Had a fun flight from Shannon to Manchester as well where I was given FL450 in the small jet for cruise, and only about 20miles out was then told to descend to 3k. I also ran out of fuel so I had to glide it in, which I got totally wrong despite having loads of altitude.

It's stopped crashing to desktop when you connect/reconnect a device...but for me waking up my bluetooth keyboard triggers a 10-15 second pause...but annoying.
What do you mean tripping out? I've installed the game twice on my 100mb line and it's fairly flown down the line.
