Meanwhile, the third week of the patch was underway. Perhaps this is the best patch Gaijin has ever made in favor of DCS. We’re not playing the game—we’ve just been sitting on the forum for two weeks now, hoping they’ll remember us.

They really need to make this fix a priority.

Oh my word it’s awful.
I just can’t see anyone. Massive bomber formations are almost invisible. You can literally notice the moment aircraft go straight up invisible probably barely a mile away.
I had two moments last night where both me and another player blatantly lost sight of one another. One instance was a P-51 I was fighting against in a scissor (so very close range) and as I was wounded I tried getting distance to escape. Normally this would only postpone my death but nope! I probably blurred into the sea… I literally saw a blurry P-51’esque object floating around trying to spot me as I waddled away.
After this a P-47 dived on me. I do a quick barrel roll to evade and as I’m watching him zoom climb away… poof gone. The only maps that are playable at the moment are the winter maps where you can see aircraft contrails.
Gaijin… please… fix this mess. I’ve tried all of the settings available to me as a Ps5 player and nothing helps. Your game is borderline unplayable at the moment.

I play @1080 p and I spot targets perfectly fine. I recommend y’all to set your resolution lower
This problem is severely hampering for players in VR. I don’t think lowering the game resolution is going to help VR players.

I thought vr players always had issues with spotting so it’s nothing special there
No not really. I’m a VR player. Just before the Leviathans update, spotting was very good and you could actually see planes at render-in range and up close.
Now, planes are much more faint at a distance which is especially bad because of how the dot rendering / spotting system works where contacts will pop in and out depending on a bunch of factors. And now also up close, planes are extremely difficult to discern against the background. Especially the ground and the sky. Plane sillhouettes will “blend” against the ground and sky as if they’re see-through. The only reliable way to keep track is if they’re turning hard, you can see their very visible wing trails, or if they’re shooting.
Every major update they break something with VR that takes a long time to fix. Seeing in VR was in a good state just before the Leviathan update, now it’s extremely frustrating.

This is not an EXCUSE for Gaijin to not fix this mess. You are all act like it is fine for player that can afford a better PC and good monitor to have a worse gameplay than people with a barebone potato

Dude, in what Bizarro world do you live in, where the solution to a software developer who clearly BROKE THEIR OWN GAME, is to demand that customers drop their resolution to near minimum specs to be able to play?
- Even dropping resolution to 1024, the contacts are STILL smaller and less visible than they were.
- Dropping to 1024 from 4k is roughly 25% of the previous 4k resolution many were playing at, so surprise, the entire game now looks like dog poop.
So hey I get it, the bug has affected you personally to a minimum degree because you already running on a near minimum spec bucket of bolts. But don’t expect the playerbase with decent rigs to have to drop down to minimum specs to be able to see anything. That’s not the solution.
Gaijin broke it, Gaijin needs to fix it. ASAP

no way you call a 5070ti,. 9600x a bad rig. i literally play on all settings maxed
Dude, I’m playing at 1080p resolution. No need to lie and suck up to the devs—visibility has gotten way worse, it’s a widely acknowledged fact at this point.

Lmao, guess I finally see a “ZomBomber” player here. Did not expect to find one since they are so very happy and content with this update but alas, 1 has finally spoken up.
How do you enjoy it so far? grinding out in Sim battle with no fighter able to intercept you, Mr. bomber main?

and this is why we can’t have nice thing. All these suck up loser will continue to play this broken-@ss game and defending the dev, leaving Gaijin with no motivation to fix their shit.
I’m convince that the peoples oppose to a fix to this problem are just Gaijin employees who don’t want more works for them
