RE: Peaky Blinders
FS2020 is a weirdo game, it's more CPU bound and many people aren't realizing that so they'll throw a beefier GPU and oops it runs exactly the same as before. Everyone is also trying to run it at 4k on ultra and expect it to keep a steady 60 fps which is just not gonna happen.
I'm running it on a woefully old CPU: A Q6600 from forever ago. It'll load into the simulation and I have to sit there on the runway for about three solid minutes as the processor audibly crackles and pops trying to pregen all the terrain around me, while this happens the game simply pauses entirely until it's done doing its thing. Once it finishes the game then runs fine, I'm running it on medium 1080p on an RX570, medium still looks great.
While I'm having lots of fun with FS2020, the one thing it did was force me to go back to all those DCS modules I bought a while ago. I picked the F14B to start with coming in from the A10C that I learned a million years ago. Three minutes into the lesson for cold starting the plane, I must have pressed the wrong button while mousing around cause the thing started rolling forward, the guy on my headset went "What are you doing!?" while I frantically tried to find the parking brake, the plane rolled off the carrier and sunk into the ocean as my RIO ejected head-first into the carrier's side.
That's the part they didn't show you in Top Gun.
