As most of us know, the graphics have slowly been dumbed down since release to allow most of us a more "playable" time. Supposedly when the new graphics engine/code re-write is done, we'll have a 50% increase in FPS amongst a whole other assortment of goodies.

So for comparison's sake, here's what it looked like in November of 2010:

Now tell me how you could even possibly fly something that looked soo good? I'd be afraid to get carbon from the exhaust on the paint! If the game looks like that video in the near future, this will be the most impressive (visually) sim I've ever seen by a long shot. Even in it's dumbed down (graphically) state, there's soo many visual cues of amazement, not many can even compare.

So does anyone else think we'll be getting back to how it used to look? Anyone not seen that video before?

Here's hoping for some major enhancements by the next official (graphics) patch :thumbsup:

There, this should fix those nasty launcher crashes.
