My first reply said it was streaming high-res data from the cloud. Considering it’s a flight simulator advertising to cover the entire world, most people would intuit that would include textures and 3d models.
I’m not going to sit here and argue with you, have a nice day.
Your first reply also stated that it needed 180mbps to stream weather data.
This was not me. Maybe check usernames next time?
And your point about fitting the entire world’s albedo, normal, roughness, specular, height, etc etc textures as well as high-fidelity 3D models is laughably false. OBVIOUSLY it’s going to be highly detailed, you are literally the only person confused about this.
You sorta glossed over this part.
I didn’t gloss over anything. It simply makes no sense. The Earth is not a digital object.
How… do you think we represent physical objects digitally? Vibes?
No one said anything about a digital representation. I can draw Earth in MS Paint and it’s like 1mb.
If your point is that it has a high resolution digital image of the Earth, just say that.
But my point still stands. I’d still rather have a 500GB local install instead of all the problems that come with game streaming.
We shouldn’t have to say that at this point, my initial reply already conveyed that information.
I understand the gripe with it though, I hope they have the option to download areas ahead of time because yeaaaaah that’s excessive
(Though it’s probably a one-time download, with models and textures cached for later use)
You sorta glossed over the part where I described how and why your reply was nonsense.
