The consequence of launching a cloud-based game on your subscription service with millions of subscribers :snoop:. Just like the Tyson/Paul dance on Netflix

I'm in :wow:. The login queue was using more of my 4090 than the actual game on Ultra , AND I'm flying over NY. Manhattan looks trash at night, but phenomenal at day. The texture improvement is definitely noticeable, though glass buildings like 1 World Trade still suck, and there are still the weird full textures under bridges. I wanna hop in VR but don't wanna close the game :sadcam:

You can definitely tell it's streaming though. My PC latency is through the roof.

Was able to switch to VR after launching the game. Flew from JFK, around Manhattan, to Metlife, then landed at LGA. And got out the cockpit to walk around :wow: You can literally walk around the whole fukking airport runway area, and who knows where else. You can even check your components like actually check the components (rudders, flaps) of your plane with full interactivity. I mean physically hold the trigger and move them up down, left right; and you get a checkmark to indicate they're good to go. :wow:

I'm about to go hop in a helicopter and see if I can land in my hood and walkaround, my nikkas. Hold on

If so, GOTY needs to be reopened
