I only had a brief look, but the new photogrammetry for central London is so much better—it's much cleaner and less chaotic. It doesn’t look like a bomb hit it anymore, and the color balance is significantly improved (it used to be so dark and gray).

Huge improvement, thanks Asobo!
 
I just started playing Microsoft Flight Simulator cuz my cousin sold his rig and gave me his account, and this update is just the cherry on top. The detailed cities and airports sound gooood
 
I'm so glad to see Edinburgh in the latest Microsoft Flight Simulator update. I can't wait to fly over my city and see our iconic landmarks like Edinburgh Castle and Arthur's Seat.
 
I wish they had improved the ground textures for Farnborough; it looks terrible.

Other than that, I love everything else. I’ve spent a lot of time flying over Edinburgh and also picked up EGPH V2 to go along with it!
