It is now 4 years after the launch of Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 and 2024 has just launched… and its a complete pile of CRAP!!!!!!!!!!

It should not have been released in such condition. On Series X, it borders on unplayable. Lots of bugs, you can't look around with the mouse. Custom settings must always be re-entered. Missions often cannot be completed due to bugs.
wow looks like hot garbage
lol i still use P3Dv3 or v4 and X plane i never buy this new one coz it never hit the spot on the very first time for me those old sims still works good… But yeah if you want everything grafic wise the simulation is far aways from that kind a immersion and they are far from reality still its a hard call but i understand the limits also and they are tring there best for it hope we will see something soon or later but my bet is same X-Plane or lockheed martin prepar3d those are the 2 best for sumulation for me..
tried flying with a buddy but we literally couldnt see each other at all unless we were likr 100' away
4 years for the same shit. Iโm waiting until this is significantly reduced and the only reason is that new addons will not work for 2020.๐
I'll stick with x plane 12, thank you
…and DCS World shits on them all.
its kinda like they should have just supported 2020 like they said….
I was glad I got the $53 version off of CDKeys. I hope it gets better but I'm rreally just going for the FAFO aspect of it.
I didn't buy it, from what I have seen I feel like quitting this nightmare hobby and taking up keeping tropical fish.
I was going to buy a new computer and then this game. Glad I didnt do either!
Thanks for a great and accurate review. I'm sticking to 2020 for now, with its 280GB install with all my scenery and aircraft! At lest I get quick loads, no LOD issues and can even play offline and get good graphics… Maybe I'll upgrade to 2024 (sometime late 2025 after it's baked enough to be worthwhile)…
For me the biggest difference was the price. Here where I live, it is literally DOUBLE what I paid for the full FS2020. And with over a thousand addons that I have, I see absolutely NO reason to buy the new one.
7900X has 4 more cores & 8 more threads than the 7800X3D
Flightsim releases with poor performance and broken? Horrible
Stalker 2 released with poor performance and broken? Itโs the greatest thing ever
Gamers ๐๐๐๐คก๐คก๐คก
I play it on xbox and the game has very little issues. Gamer was made for the xbox sry
This review is looking outdated already
Some Aircrafts don't have sound while the add-on planes from 2020 are missing doors. This game is a crap shoot.
they still can't fix 2020 after 3 years you expected 2024 to work?
I'm going to wait until well into the new year and even then not sure I would move across. Since NVIDIA drivers 566.14 came out I have seen a big FPS and performance boost on my 4080 with MFS2020. I would just be happy if ASOBO brought the updated Bing maps into 2020 instead of trying to use 3rd party Google/Bing Map mods that have caused me more trouble than it was worth.
Bruh why only online๐ข
I was so excited and pre ordered this months ago which came out in the UK 4 pm tried for seven hours reinstalled it three times thinking it was me first stuck at 97 % . Finally game started only to be told I was in a Q . I couldn't even start the game the excitement turned to frustration and then to anger . So put in for a refund, which they paid back two days later . I'm not going to rebuy , Microsoft dropped the ball on this one it shouldnt of even been released if it wasn't ready , they knew how many had pre-ordered and how many 2020 simmers might of transferred and how many gamers would want to play . And those lucky enough to get to play had missions and content missing . Shame on you Microsoft
This is when I think Scrum sucks ๐
The problem is the FAA licensed version of X-Plane is NOT for endusers. So it's pretty irrelevant what version of X-plane or MFS you choose to "learn" flying.
So when they come to shutdown the servers in a few years I'd have paid for a paperweight game I can't do anything with.
Just keep in mind – Microsoft is one of the leading cloud infrastructure providers worldwide and now collapses with just one game….
Not to mention they recommend 64gb ram, and it never used more than 27gb while gaming… It is pathetic how they create the recommended specs
Anybody can explain why recommended specs jumps from a 6 cores cpu to a 8 cores of the same gen?, is Microsoft telling us that game uses more than 6 cores and thay improves framerate?.
I seriously DON'T BELIEVE THAT. usually specs are bullshiet
I'm on AMD and FSR seems to be in and working great, it might not show up if you don't have an AMD GPU. But otherwise have to agree about everything.
First run on my series x and it crashed lol
I am with you, it deserves its current, negative reviews. It's unfinished, buggy and now seeing the fact that my hardware isn't fully utilized is a new and heavy disappointment. Thanks for your insights. Asobo, Microsoft, they collectively focused on the wrong things.
But to completely call this a simcade, that's unfair in my opinion. Just by comparing 2024 to 2020, feeling the plane, even the friction of the tyres over the tarmac, knowing what data they use to simulate the effects of the environment on the plane in both sims, you can't call this simcade. That's like saying MSFS right now is like the Gran Turismo or Forza in terms of simulation depth, and I just don't agree with that idea. Also, saying you "miss the old days of FSX" and then following it up with how physics are not all there in 2024, as if to say they were great in the old days, that's just wild to me.
I just saw you play this shortly as if it was a simcade, pulling out an Xbox controller like a casual.
You wanna compare this to Microsoft Flight, perhaps? Now that was a simcade money grab in flight sim clothes.
The reasoning behind streaming data, does make sense in terms of scalability. But its an over-leveraged method, meaning otherwise frivolous issues and bottle-necks become game-breaking.
Bang goes that idea. I too started on FS on the schools Apple II in '82 when I bought my first computer, a TRS80 clone. Bought the sim for the Amiga 2000 when I bought the second one into our country, was a long wait for it to arrive. Internet speed in the South Pacific is not flash so performance would be worse than you get.
My MSFS2024 crashed after completing the DA62 tornado mission. I got S grade in the mission but crashed before loading the Headquarters. My reputation dropped from B(near A) to C after restarting. Spent alot of time grinding this and now alot of missions are unlocked.
If I paid for that hot mess I'd have been pissed off. Trash ๐.
It doesn't matter what your PC specs are, there is no way this can be playable in VR in free flight.
.
Why do companies ,like to overcomplicate things? Just make it to a self server like the original. Stop fixing things that arent broken!
I bailed on MS Flight Simulator with the 2020 version. Awful!! Have no intention of touching the new release.
You are right, I'm airlines captain. I agree with you. 2020 I believe is better, at least you don't need to be connected to the internet, and at the time of setting up some sceneries for my study, although the visual enhancement of this laters MSFSMs is so nice, I have found that is a lot more easy to set the environment on the old Sim 2004. and I use that version more frequently because is easier to setup compare to the new versions of msfs. It saves a lot of time.
will a RTX 2080ti still be good?
Been flying Fs since FS2004 but did try MSFS 2 in 1985 as a child. FS2024 should of been an update to 2020, not a new game on its own. They retired 2020 way too early and force people to re-buy 100's and 1000's of dollars of DLC. Also I do not agree with cloud based content. Give us the hard drive option. I am not going to buy it after refunding it. They can have it.. They career mode is nothing exciting either. The AI generated voices are horrible and repeat themself. You would think they could of gotten the masses of Ms employees to do voice lines. Its a complete step backwards.
Thanks for the review. You just saved me 70 bucks.
how important is the CL value of the ram? I see alot of high value and i heard it should be low, What diffrence does it make?
Using a overlay somehow drops your FPS by a hundred… turn it off and check your FPS by using HWinfo64 (or another tool). Getting 130 FPS easily
Gee, "gazillions" of people are expecting to DL Flight Sim 2024 on the FIRST DAY and can't understand why there might be a problem? Chill people!
Doing realtime cloud streaming is asking for trouble, even for a big company that doesn't specialize in it. I heard they had a ddos issue, they really should have done it locally and have it use like 200gb coz storage is cheaper anyway
I found 2020 more of a letdown because most of the buttons on aircraft that you would expect to work, were inop. and multiplayer was not what I had expected either. Would be nice to have Co-op where both of you could go in a cockpit.
The fact it's been out 4 days an they still haven't fixed shit is insane.
