Yes, the game stutters when you first start up. I believe this has to do with the maps/assets and all loading in. Is it supposed too? No. But drive around for about 10 minutes and the stuttering will pretty much completely dissapear (atleast in 3rd person driving for me). After about 10 minutes I got rid of the stuttering with atleast the base vehicles, haven't tried alot more so far.

Yes, framerate can be boosted, it dips alot. The map is a bit slow on loading textures here and there. Played on Ultra, High, Medium, doesn't really make a big difference with the ''glitchy'' loading of the textures.

Game itself feels solid as we can expect tbh.

Definitely recommend it but give Giants some time to get an update out and fix some of the things, yes it's a shame it's not a ready to go product of the get go, but let's be honest (and dissapointed as well), what game truly is nowadays?

So far I still recommend but they do need to get their ''Behinds'' behind the trouble shooting fast, it can be a deal breaker in the long run.

P.S. Played with a buddy today, had loads of fun, the GPS is amazing, physics are great, logging finally works and isn't as janky as it used to be! The new deformation is cool when both are working the fields and still the same old shenanigans of flipping your truck with 20 haybales stacked on it going 80 around the corner...
Yes, it's FS22 with a touch up, but honestly... what were people expecting? Futuristic Farming sim or something?

Guaranteed PTSD Simulator, even if you aren't a war veteran yourself..
Team play is a must though, getting a good squad is what it's all about!
AI is unforgiving and they will absolutely shaft their machete through your neck and drop your head in the street for your comrades to see.

A side from a few things here and there that need adding / patching, the game is very solid, runs great and the dev team is great in interacting with the players! Must have for Tactical gameplay

Great game, lots of fun and especially the trials are quite challenging. you can play this hours on end without it getting boring. Haven't seen or noticed any bugs yet and the game mostly runs smooth (every now and then it has performance loss on my laptop and desktop, can't let it ruin the fun).

10/10 would Swish and Flick again

Overall a fun game, but there are quite alot of negative points.
Starting with the Positive side:

- Multiplayer is very fun where you can manage your own part and don't have to worry with traffic landing and taking off. 1 of you is Tower, 1 of you is Ground, very fun to play, unfortunately you cannot switch mid game.
- Voice commands are very easy to give and hardly give any problems (make sure your system is on English, I had to add English in my system next to standard: Dutch).
- Airport layouts are quite good, and you can use real airline companies aswell (DLC).
- Delete button to make airplanes go ''Poof'' so you won't get in to Traffic problems (hehe).

Negative side:
- Waaaay too overpriced (I assume part of that is for paying off the airline companies and airports for the actual rights to use them in game, but still, this game is worth at max €25, for sure not the full 50), but it when it's on Sale!
- Graphics are actually Terrible, plane visibility is worthless in Tower and in the air, in the air the camera just sooms up and you won't actually see the plane, on the ground you can look a certain distance, but it's mostly terrible graphics.
- It's literally a 2D picture of the Airport from Google Maps, then some parts are changed in to 3D and some ligths are added, which is terrible. For this price of a game, we want full 3D experience (Airports, not even talking rest of the map).
- To get real Airline companies as; Emirates, Delta, UPS etc. you need to pay an extra 9,99 for the basic airports (go to their website atcsuite.com), and 6,99 per every airport that you buy extra.
- All extra airports are DLC's (which obviously makes sense), but it is ridiculous that you have to pay the extra 6,99 for real companies on those dlc's too.
- Sometimes it gives you collision points when they the take-off / lining up / landing is legit to real airports, and it wil set you back like 1500 points (every plane take off is +10).
- Voice Commands don't go in to full detail like actual ATC's. Was expecting a bit more.

There are probably a few more things to think about. It sounds very negative, but when you actually play it, especially with a friend, the game is really fun. Just a shame they didn't make the effort for €50 to actually model the airport correctly and add more non-airtraffic to the airport, I don't even see pushback cars right now.

I do enjoy the game, you can get very sucked in to it and play it for hours, if you focus yourself around the fact of graphics, which I currently do. I do not regret buying the game for the price, including the real traffic DLC for actual companies, because that makes the game just so much more enjoying. Hope that the developers will remodel the game in the future or make a new ATC game that is modeled a bit better.
Keep it up!
