I really understand where you are coming from @komemiute
I find myself spending less and less time with DCS these days as well. Due to time zone and satellite internet, multiplayer is a dream for me. At the moment I’m not flying missions as such, just bits of them with very simple self created missions (refuelling, carrier landing, etc). Gets a bit 'meh after a while.
I would much rather ED had invested time into the ME than multithreading, but the good of the many…
Multithreading was very necessary. It will unlock all the things we want; better AI, more layers of AI, better AI constraints such as not seeing through clouds or into the sun. MT is the Great Leap Forward, and in a year or two, we shall look back on pre 2.8 DCS as a simple, primitive thing.
