Like you (and everybody else), I am suffering the server speed issues and many (MANY) bugs in the software. BUT.... I just took a ballon (the one with the rotor) for a night time trip over paris, and managed to land it in front of notre dame, get out, and walk around. There were bugs (a ship down the sien decided to take a trip down one of the roads), but as an experience, it was fantastic. My trip was in VR, and it was spell binding. I imagine a flight over London at night will be equally good. Give it a try (hint, look up to control the ballon, and press the ignition to fire the burner to rise, pull the rope to lower, the rotor is...tricky).
They should rethink their streaming. I prefer to load and save in my cache rather than constantly having server problems and crashes. I'm not a fan of cloud servers anyway.
100%!!!! Id rather a 300gb download that takes days VS cloud gaming......If anything, they should give people the option like they do with Gamepass, Download the game or strem it(for 2020)
@04boogie-t14 some people may like that more.....im 38, i remember when you could buy a game and play it WITHOUT the internet 😱......unfortunately developers dont do that anymore because they can't keep charging you for Add-ons.
This is exactly what I predicted in your London in FS 2020 video. You've done well getting into the aim at all. I' m on day 3 and haven't even seen a plane yet. For me, the worst new aim experience since Fly 2 was released.
I am glad you got in. I started getting in reliably last night or I should say in the early morning hours and was able to get in this morning before heading out of town. I just got back and am about to try it again.
We knew things were better by the tone of your voice in the first 30 seconds. All flight, there was "pep in your voice". I have a new hard drive (M.2) arriving in 4 days so 2024 should be a bit more stabilized. Keep the tours/tutorials coming. Quick path to the Community Folder?? Thanks for the videos! !! !!!
I got into it first thing this morning on XSX, loaded up very quick. I've done a few flights around London, Barton and Blackpool, and have enjoyed what I have seen. The lighting in particular is stunning. What we need from Assobo and quick is the option to download the world updates and other DLC asap. Everything is set to stream at the moment including the Orbx packs. I believe we'll be okay when the online store goes live.
When editing your controls for the first time it will prompt you to set a name for your control profile, and give you the option to apply that profile to all aircraft, and a second option to set this profle as default.
Yesterday I had the 'queue', this morning I was up to 97%, now I've been able to enable my settings but stuck at the 'customize identity' screen now :(
I waited about 24hrs. from launch to load MSFS 2024 on my Xbox S (standard edition, with game pass). Sim loaded slowly, but smoothly. I haven't flown enough to draw any conclusions, though it is winter where I flew, and seeing the trees without leaves (seasonality) was nice. However, my T-flight Hotas One bindings are not working properly; the thrust and aileron settings are reversed. I guess it will take a while to sort through these sorts of issues. Cheers,
I found today if you connect early before the US wake up it worked reasonably well,as the day went on it became unusable. Hopefully with time it will improve.
I just did a quick flight from my local aiport (EGMC) and noticed many dark rectangles in the river/sea. Also when looking around the settings the sim froze then shut down by itself.
Oddly enough, MSFS2024 works pretty reliably and best on Xbox. I have both PC & Xbox X. As an experiment I've been comparing both. Xbox loads fast and runs great. I only have Game Pass versions though. Looks pretty decent on Xbox too. I have no idea how to measure FPS on Xbox, but looks ok to me.
@@Huddison My Xbox 2024 experience hasn't been to bad ..I started d/l ing the game at 8:02 .. I was in game by 8:10, for a while. Granted, I was setting up my V1F .. but as I tested, I saw graphics lagging bad. Restarting the flights cleared it up. Day 2 .. I only spent a few hrs on it (R/L in the way), fighting the profile set-up (until I found out how CLEAR works, to start with a empty profile) Today (about 48 hrs from launch) .. I spent a few hr's config'ing the V1f .. about 90% done now, got Nav set up finally) ... I took off, flew a flight, about 90 minutes long, just finished ... Ran great, only slow down I noticed,was on ground, at both airports. I figured these companies would get it fixed, in a few days, not weeks .. after 48 hrs, it is definitely much better .. I think it is getting there. Jake
My Xbox S loaded in 12 mins.. I flew after completely setting up my flight Turtle Beach flight yoke, after and hour of that. Everytime I changed aircraft, I would have to go back in settings and reset the yoke again. In flight.. I noticed a lot of tiles, and terrain poping under me. But, flight was smooth. Buildings looked horrible, ocean beach edges were better in 20220. After an hour, I receeived all my 2020 aircraft. But not all of them transferred. I will try my Thrustmaster stick later today. So far...I am not impressed. I still loose aviaonics. I hope it will get better in time!
I have 100 MBS download speed. My Frame rate never went below 100 and it was very smooth. I have a thermometer on top of my tower and it will be nice in winter, putting out 106 degrees F. i9 CPU temp tops out at 155 F. All 26 cores being active, and using most of the 4070 GPU.
Yes well that launch could have gone better. It will get sorted out in due time I am sure. I wonder if there will be Xmas bonuses in the Asobo/Ms offices this year.
On the aeronautical charts, there are Visual References along flight paths to runways. These MUST be rendered perfect. All else can be lesser quality rendered to lower CPU and GPU load, so higher framerate can be achieved.
At the moment i think its a bad joke, i flew over Thanet for 2 minutes and just a green,grey,brown mess with manic ant vehicle traffic on invisible roads. I have 500mb connection so thats not it. I went back in 2020 flew my wasp from headcorn and it was beautiful.
I finally got in after 10 hours yesterday. Bindings are a pin so far, and I’ve found helicopters completely unflyable this morning. I tried two and couldn’t control either one. I put assists back on and still couldn’t fly. Can’t get rid of ATC and my landing gear binding toggles EFB and I can’t figure out why. Looks ok for me but graphics are downgraded from 2020. I’ll have to try increasing some graphics setting when I recover from my headache 😢. I’m sure it’ll all work out soon. Edit: I restarted and helos are working, and I discovered by accident that you can toggle the POI pins by pushing in the left stick of an Xbox controller. Now if I could just set the drone camera to go up and down I’d be good 😊
Ya know Huddison, aside from the bugs and having to rebind a bunch of stuff, I think it looks very flat and 2D. I wasn't getting a feeling of depth. The clouds look like Xplane. I have it loaded but I think I'm going to stay with 2020 for a bit. Also I have to have Track IR and its a no go now for me.
I smell a class action looming. I'm glad I didn't purchase. I feel sorry for those who splurged on the collectors edition. Expensive key fob and die cast airplane.
I managed to get in today, including right now but only through VPN to US servers. I'm in the UK and they either fail or it's so messed up to be unplayable. In the menus I've had issues of settings not sticking/saving but also simply not working. However, once textures have loaded and I'm flying it's pretty great on mostly high end settings. It's smooth, the scenery is great and London performed so much better than 2020 which always stuttered.
@Huddison heck yeah, still had a few game crashes tho. Quick question for u, how do I make my yoke/quadrant inputs the same for every plane? When I set it up the controls only apply to the aircraft I have selected. I hit the apply to all aircraft option but it doesn't do it.
DO YOU HAVE A VIDEO ON THE SETUP PROCESS WITH THE ALPHA AND BRAVO FROM HONEYCOMB?? Is there a glitch with the time setting, (utc) ???? Thank you for your videos…
The problem is it doesn't offer to download anything , only to stream (16:42) If you use a plane that is in your community folder, there is no blurriness!! Therefore the solution would be to download the area you fiy the most.
My biggest laugh was flying in northern italy to get a "Bandwidth too low" on a gigabyte ethernet being fed by a 900 mbps fibre connection - lordy lordy! Especially as they told US we needed lots of Bandwidth on our side!
Got in today at last... plays ok... im lucky to have 1Gig Internet speed , but still a few pop ins on Xbox X... no sound of own aircraft in career mode but ok in free flight... a bit odd but its only day 2 im sure it will get sorted... yesterday was a shambles but fingers crossed it will get sorted...
I am flying it on my Xbox Series S and run it hard wired with 300mbps+ download speed and it is running pretty good but not great. I live in the St. Louis, Mo area USA & we have a new Major League soccer stadium built a couple of years ago & it is Not in the scenery. They also talked about getting all the airports that fly gliders in the sim but the one that is near St. Louis (Highland-Winet Airport (H07) show's no gliders or glider activity. Well, that is disappointing for sure, hopefully they will get this smoothed out with updates & patches...etc.
What sort of bandwidth does your WiFi give you? I have a ropey standard Sky package which only achieves about 10 mbps. I've got into the sim, but I can't even load up a whole aircraft yet, - the sim just shows a map and gives me a 'working' symbol.
@Huddison I forgot to ask, - who is your broadband provider, and what part of the country do you live in, please? Just asking with a view to to moving to that package myself.
I hate to ask a question - should I wait or reload FS2024 if it is using 100% CPU but downloading nothing? It's been stuck at 68% for probably 20 minutes. It says "Loading world data..." but not downloading anything. It's been over an hour and I have only managed to download 3 GB of data. But it is not posted anywhere what the actual download file size is.
Oddly enough, I can actually see that 2024 is pulling in like 5Mbps on the task manager, but the usage history doesn't go up at all for this application. I can't find any other application that is increasing in usage as 2024 continues to pull in data. Really odd
@Huddison I got through! No engine sounds, my download folder is only 11 gigs and wow oh man they didn't improve anything from fs2020 other than a few shaders
I've been spending frustrating HOURS trying to program my Logitech Extreme 3D Pro joystick buttons, switches and top hat to function properly. No joy. It seems that by default most of the stick's 14 possible controls have been assigned to conflict with several other functions? I don't recall MSFS 2020 being this difficult and confusing right out of the box.
Mine looks washed out, colors are muted and everything is oddly pixelated even though I'm in 2k. At night, the instrument's glare overwhelms everything. I was only in for two flights totaling around 20 minutes. Dealing with ATC was wonky but I did like the EFB. I know it'll get better, but my first impression was not good.
For me the biggest question is: will it run on my actual computer or I must buy a new one? How it perform compared to MSFS2020 on the same coumputer? Possibly not with one equipped with a RTX 4090. At presents my Computer is 7 years old, running on an I7-7700k and a GTX10810 with 32 mb RAM . Good for MSFS2020 but with the 2024 version? This is for many of us the biggest question...
THE GRAPHIC’S LOOK TOTALLY THE SAME TO ME NO DIFFERENCE !!! Xbox series X version. You can have your MSFS 2024…..I’am happy with and will stick with the 2020 version ! UPDATE : THIS 2024 SIM IS MUCH WORSE THAN THE 2020 MSFS !!! AWFULL !
@@Huddison With people being unable to login or put in a queue, or loading taking too long. I bought on microsoft store and have been able to play consistently without any issues and normal loading times.
Jealous, i was trying around sams time you were but could never load into the airport, just a satellite view of the cloud cover (ookla reported my internet speed at just over 1gig while i was waiting to load airport and after getting a bandwidth error from sim.)
We were promised that if we had purchased the premium version of msfs2020, all the handcrafted airports would show up in the standard version of msfs2024. That does not appear to be so at all! Is anyone else having this problem?
I think i saw that ally law guy climbing a sky scraper! Lol sim looks great they need to fix the servers though. Sounds like they were being cheap and didn't want to invest in the infrastructure for the hype behind release. Instead let us deal with it and save a buck and wait for it to chill out.
Good stuff. Thanks for sharing. Can someone please tell me how to access that menu at 3: 50 on Xbox. I can't get to the menu I'm on controller 😢😢. Tyty ❤
I would rather have the option to download the world data I choose instead of relying on cloud computing. What happens when they decide to shut it all down one day next MSFS 2030 comes out.
Have you tried msfs2024 on xbox series s yet? I noticed sim.crashes just trying to load free flight. Example, try choosing vision jet & load at KJFK airport. Why did they change menu actions to get around? We learned how fs2020 controls work just to move around menus. Frustrating big time learning curve. Not user friendly Why they replaced great hanger mode to see planes exterior & interiors but fs2024 just loads a 2D inage now? Omg why?
@Huddison anyone know what gamepad setting to turn off (auto centering) external view. I'm flying external mode & pan left let go of stick and auto centers view instead of remaining in last position.
@Huddison Hi,. Could you do me a favor. Spawn in at a big airport like Heathrow or KJFK airports. Are you seeing "Real Commercial Liveries" yet on PC or your Xbox version. I turn on Real Time Traffic and see nameplates with correct traffic BUT not seeing any real life liveries on any planes on my Xbox series s. I wasn't sure if maybe they haven't applied this feature yet or haven't applied or offered it to Xbox versions. I just hope it's a server thing and once things settle down we'll see more stuff.
well like i said before ill stick with 2020 am more then happy with that as for 2025 think it just needs some time too sort it self out then every one maybe happy
@@Huddison I am starting to believe 2024 is a game more than a flight sim. At least on 2020 one could fly offline. With 2024 that is not possible. Even the included aircraft are in the cloud so you can expect half finished planes no thanks.
What?? Have you had a T1 line installed! Can’t watch, jealousy, annoyed and disappointed. 😂 This isn’t going to be fix in time for MSFS2028. That is how they will do it a spin for new version and another £701! 😩🤷♂️🤦♂️
@@Huddison looking at steam account and seems like they accepted my request , and from now on i will stick with 2020 which i have no complain whatsoever , thank yiou
I Think that Microsoft and Asobo Should Rethink this Streaming Strategy, I Prefer a Game that I can Play OFFLINE like on FSX or If Necessary at times MSFS 2020, Not Everyone around the World has the same Internet Connection Bandwith, I Don't like this Flight Simulator as Complex as this one is just solely on the CLOUD. I'd rather buy a Separate SSD Hardrive and Download and Install most of Everything in It, so I don't have to Depend on trying to Connect to a Server!!
Like you (and everybody else), I am suffering the server speed issues and many (MANY) bugs in the software. BUT....

That would be like saying “I would rather download all Netflix shows instead of just downloading the app. It’s just not practical at all
@04boogie-t14 some people may like that more.....im 38, i remember when you could buy a game and play it WITHOUT the internet 😱......unfortunately developers dont do that anymore because they can't keep charging you for Add-ons.
The download would be way larger than any normal PC could handle. It’s in the 2 Petabyte range.
Patience, it's going to settle.
This is exactly what I predicted in your London in FS 2020 video. You've done well getting into the aim at all. I' m on day 3 and haven't even seen a plane yet. For me, the worst new aim experience since Fly 2 was released.
Really hope you can also get in soon (be prudent with your timings ;)
this sentance sums it up `Loading Page Patience Simulator 2024 😂`23 hours to get it working one hour of flight and now Loading again , what a mess .
It is mate; no two ways around that.
I so enjoyed this video; reminding me, this is just the beginning of the beginning. Always looking forward to your thoughts.
Thanks appreciated :)

We knew things were better by the tone of your voice in the first 30 seconds. All flight, there was "pep in your voice". I have a new hard drive (M.2) arriving in 4 days so 2024 should be a bit more stabilized.

Raise a Pint or two for Huddison for braving 2024 . I shall wait till sometime next year even though that cloud gaming thing is concerning for me.
Hey Mike :) It'll even out sooner or... later.
Here's hoping it's the former 😂
You got onto the game. Wow. Good for you. Hope you have fun.😂
Thanks :)
Man, shots fired. LOL
I got into it first thing this morning on XSX, loaded up very quick. I've done a few flights around London, Barton and Blackpool, and have enjoyed what I have seen. The lighting in particular is stunning. What we need from Assobo and quick is the option to download the world updates and other DLC asap. Everything is set to stream at the moment including the Orbx packs. I believe we'll be okay when the online store goes live.
Great to hear you got in to. I think things should settle down over the next week or so.
Ive been in all day. Graphics much better and i walked around RAF Cosford. Wow!! It was incredible. The buildings the grass and fauna and roads.
I use to watch you on twitch but now I just watch youtube.
Good to know it’s good on Xbox x I can’t get past the spinning disc on start flight screen,is the lod a lot better than 2020
When editing your controls for the first time it will prompt you to set a name for your control profile, and give you the option to apply that profile to all aircraft, and a second option to set this profle as default.

Have you noticed any improvements in frame rates over 2020 in the same area and settings.
It's roughly equal to FS2020 performance from my experience.
Do you plan to make a video on how to make the settings for the controls on turtle beach velocityone flightdeck i hope so
Sheesh, I need 4 of me :D
Finally reloaded! Ok, so it starts with me outside. Click on Views-Pilot and I’m still outside. How do we get into cockpit?
Move your character near the aircraft's door and you will be able to click it (or A button) to get in.
Thanks! 👍
Did I notice in the early part of your flight the traffic were driving on the right???
Possibly.
What sort of bandwidth does your WiFi give you?
I have a ropey standard Sky package which only achieves about 10 mbps.
I've got into the sim, but I can't even load up a whole aircraft yet, - the sim just shows a map and gives me a 'working' symbol.
I currently and typically get around 500-600 mbps per sec.
@Huddison thanks! I bought a fancy new machine and controls to run FS2024, but now it seems I can't avoid upgrading my broadband too!
@Huddison I forgot to ask, - who is your broadband provider, and what part of the country do you live in, please? Just asking with a view to to moving to that package myself.
I wonder when the release date is. Day 2 still can't play. Hopefully it gets released soon.
It's really not acceptable.
Have had on XSX lockups, missing cockpit textures, half the aircraft nor working, or pick an aircraft and locks up

@Huddison I got through! No engine sounds, my download folder is only 11 gigs and wow oh man they didn't improve anything from fs2020 other than a few shaders
I couldn’t get further than the screen to make my character. I’m glad I didn’t delete FS2020, so I’ll stick to that for now.
He he, the balloon looks fun.
Yeah, going back to that one later 😆
are the physics definitely better than 2020?
It feels more realistic to me; but I've only done a few flights so far.
Nice video - is there a way to hide the tablet - I fly the c172 and its permanently stuck to the window - I would like to remove it once I'm set up
I'll check.
@Huddison I done it. There is a tiny button top right that hides it but it does leave the suction mount
Hate trimming, so leave it on auto trim. Much easier else trimming all the time
Only got doing 2 flights but had no sound through the headset of my aircraft but everything else was coming through, using pc
Issues abound.
I still haven't installed and tested it. I couldn't take it. Looks and feels so rough. My impression just from watching... I'll give it a week or so.
I've been spending frustrating HOURS trying to program my Logitech Extreme 3D Pro joystick buttons, switches and top hat to function properly. No joy. It seems that by default most of the stick's 14 possible controls have been assigned to conflict with several other functions? I don't recall MSFS 2020 being this difficult and confusing right out of the box.
Issues abound atm with FS2024.
Hah ! Xbox seems to be a clear winner running 24. I can imagine 1000's of PC users heading out to buy an Xbox !
Mine looks washed out, colors are muted and everything is oddly pixelated even though I'm in 2k. At night, the instrument's glare overwhelms everything. I was only in for two flights totaling around 20 minutes. Dealing with ATC was wonky but I did like the EFB. I know it'll get better, but my first impression was not good.
For me the biggest question is: will it run on my actual computer or I must buy a new one? How it perform compared to MSFS2020 on the same coumputer? Possibly not with one equipped with a RTX 4090. At presents my Computer is 7 years old, running on an I7-7700k and a GTX10810 with 32 mb RAM . Good for MSFS2020 but with the 2024 version? This is for many of us the biggest question...
I would try Gamepass and give it a try for yourself - my thoughts are that if your internet feed is ok; you'll be fine.
THE GRAPHIC’S LOOK TOTALLY THE SAME TO ME NO DIFFERENCE !!! Xbox series X version. You can have your MSFS 2024…..I’am happy with and will stick with the 2020 version ! UPDATE : THIS 2024 SIM IS MUCH WORSE THAN THE 2020 MSFS !!! AWFULL !
Buy a pc for better graphics the series x was already on the limit for msfs2020.
It's not going to get much better with the Series X. It can barely run MSFS2020.

Are Bush trips no longer a thing?
You should still be able to fly them.
it seems the issue is mainly with steam users. I haven't had any issues on the microsoft store/xbox store.
Which issue?
@@Huddison With people being unable to login or put in a queue, or loading taking too long. I bought on microsoft store and have been able to play consistently without any issues and normal loading times.
Well done!
Thanks ;)
Jealous, i was trying around sams time you were but could never load into the airport, just a satellite view of the cloud cover (ookla reported my internet speed at just over 1gig while i was waiting to load airport and after getting a bandwidth error from sim.)
Hello I m surprised as there is absolutely no AI planes around . Is it normal ? Something you decide by parameters? Thnks
There were some around; it's very buggy atm.
Understood thanks .
We were promised that if we had purchased the premium version of msfs2020, all the handcrafted airports would show up in the standard version of msfs2024. That does not appear to be so at all! Is anyone else having this problem?
I think i saw that ally law guy climbing a sky scraper! Lol sim looks great they need to fix the servers though. Sounds like they were being cheap and didn't want to invest in the infrastructure for the hype behind release. Instead let us deal with it and save a buck and wait for it to chill out.
I’ll wait till bugs are fixed before I throw things away or blow my cool. So, Huddison it’s up to you to shine the light🇺🇸🙏🏼😀👍🪖😳
I'll be endeavouring ;)
I bet Austin Meyer and the gang at Xplane are having a good laugh. What a flop. 2020 is vastly superior.
That is what I was thinking.
I am not handing my money over anytime soon!
keeps resetting my controls after i button map. planes keep randomly spinning and the aircraft is snappy
Just had my steam achievement of completed first flight yet I still haven't seen a plane yet
😁
Good stuff. Thanks for sharing. Can someone please tell me how to access that menu at 3: 50
on Xbox. I can't get to the menu
I'm on controller
😢😢. Tyty ❤
I would rather have the option to download the world data I choose instead of relying on cloud computing. What happens when they decide to shut it all down one day next MSFS 2030 comes out.
Asobo will blame every issue you are having on your internet now.
Instruments looking bad due to streaming is just ridiculous.
Buildings still look like melted cheese! no real improvments there!
I don't know - the lighting is improved.
Beautiful bridge, can't see my airspeed. What's the point? *sigh* 98% of everything that is important is in the cockpit, not outside.
Two days and game crashes at 90%, we shouldn’t have to pay for this until we can actually play.
Settings I set reset every flight or don’t function properly. Its beyond ridiculous I’m giving up for a week or 2 at least
Next they need to combine forza to it so you can drive wherever you land. 😉
Its not flyable on my xbox. Keyboard assignements dont work and I can bind settings to my Velicity one but tgey dont work. Any idea how to solve this?
I'll do a deep dive into the FS2024 settings.
Have you tried msfs2024 on xbox series s yet?
I noticed sim.crashes just trying to load free flight. Example, try choosing vision jet & load at KJFK airport.
Why did they change menu actions to get around?
We learned how fs2020 controls work just to move around menus.
Frustrating big time learning curve. Not user friendly
Why they replaced great hanger mode to see planes exterior & interiors but fs2024 just loads a 2D inage now? Omg why?
That is next on my list.
@Huddison anyone know what gamepad setting to turn off (auto centering) external view. I'm flying external mode & pan left let go of stick and auto centers view instead of remaining in last position.
@Huddison Hi,.
Could you do me a favor.
Spawn in at a big airport like Heathrow or KJFK airports.
Are you seeing "Real Commercial Liveries" yet on PC or your Xbox version.
I turn on Real Time Traffic and see nameplates with correct traffic BUT not seeing any real life liveries on any planes on my Xbox series s.
I wasn't sure if maybe they haven't applied this feature yet or haven't applied or offered it to Xbox versions.
I just hope it's a server thing and once things settle down we'll see more stuff.
3:38 wdym? its not in tact, its floating like 20m above the river and attached to nothing.... watt
Has anybody been able to find the replay tool that they said would be integrated?
In this video the buildings look very bad and missing textures ! 2020 is much better ! Streaming is the big problem....
well like i said before ill stick with 2020 am more then happy with that as for 2025 think it just needs some time too sort it self out then every one maybe happy
I think I'll wait a week or so.
Might be best.
I would love this but being totally cloud based worries me. I'm staying with 2020 for sometime..
You're not alone.
@@Huddison I am starting to believe 2024 is a game more than a flight sim. At least on 2020 one could fly offline. With 2024 that is not possible. Even the included aircraft are in the cloud so you can expect half finished planes no thanks.
Still can’t get the game to load.
This is why I'm hesitant on buying it yet.
Same here.
You should hopefully be able to get in soon.
@@MrCgford1 don’t
@ParZIVal19D i almost pulled the trigger last night. I'm Going to wait and see what happens within the next week or two
Does anyone else have a drifting camera in cockpit view? I cant get it to stay still regardless of what i do!
It might be stick drift on one of your controllers - I get that sometimes when I have my Xbox 360 controller attached on my PC.
What?? Have you had a T1 line installed! Can’t watch, jealousy, annoyed and disappointed. 😂 This isn’t going to be fix in time for MSFS2028. That is how they will do it a spin for new version and another £701! 😩🤷♂️🤦♂️
£70
I have requested a refund ... don't have the patience or time to faff. Hope I am wrong and dont see these videos still in six months time.
I got robbed ,
😢A lot of us feel that way.
@@Huddison looking at steam account and seems like they accepted my request , and from now on i will stick with 2020 which i have no complain whatsoever , thank yiou
Cloud loads will kill your SSD and game as well 🤦♂️
Everything is reversed on my hotus one
Patiently waiting on your setup video😢
I'll get to it :)
@Huddison ty ty ❤️
I Think that Microsoft and Asobo Should Rethink this Streaming Strategy, I Prefer a Game that I can Play OFFLINE like on FSX or If Necessary at times MSFS 2020, Not Everyone around the World has the same Internet Connection Bandwith, I Don't like this Flight Simulator as Complex as this one is just solely on the CLOUD. I'd rather buy a Separate SSD Hardrive and Download and Install most of Everything in It, so I don't have to Depend on trying to Connect to a Server!!
London doesnt look anywhere near as good as that on the xbox series x.
Hopefully, issues on Xbox will be sorted soon.
Managed to load the game on xbx... as for actual flying, it's not happening.
What a mess that game is trying to load it up. Hope they sort it out.

Still stuck on 97%
