Tinkickef Posted December 10, 2017 Share Posted December 10, 2017 There appears to be quite a few changes made in 2.2 that ED have not actually told about. Found one today while buzzing around Normandy in the Huey, namely the coastline. Looks absolutely fantastic in VR, crystal clear water with a sandy / rocky and weed strew seabed, leading to the shallows, parts of which are rocky and drop away steeply underwater, then the shoreline itself, partly rocky and gravelly, and partly sandy all leading to sand / shingle beaches. The new water effect is fantastic too. I noticed the rocky parts last update, but the sand is new to this update. Performance is markedly improved as well. Its easy to complain about the negative stuff like the F10 crash, but I feel that I had better balance that with some positive stuff. 2.2 is a breath of fresh air, stunning changes and I think it probably the most realistic scenery bar none.

Ala12Rv-watermanpc Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 Yeah, water is so much better now...the only thing remaining imho is that beaches need much more waves breaking (more white foam) even if there are very few white caps but other than that its a massive improvement!
