In reality, there was no optimization. Just a shuffling around of features.
Starting to wonder if you just can't read, don't understand english or just chose to ignore/change what people say. "Optimized" means runs better, not looks better.
Everyone has said that the SS's are not from a final build.
I said 12 tree's but you chose to round it down to 5 saying that means there is still copy/paste as I was saying it means the opposite.
Maybe they will let people that don't want to switch over to 2.0 stay in the old build, then you can enjoy your graphics while we enjoy improved gameplay, areas and content.
