People that say that it is just an update are not really accurate. MSFS 202 was largely run on a single processor CPU core, and that means that it was at the llimit that it could reach grapically. In virtually all but the most poorly mismatched CPU/GPU compinations, the CPU single core load was the limit to performance. The new design spreads the work over many cores, and this is what allows MSFS to have far more detailed graphics and a host of new features. I could care less about the career mode, so am not really affected by the shortcomings of it, but everywhere I fly, MSFIS 2024 is a better looking sim. Non - photogrammetry areas look far better, the clouds are spectacularly more detailed, terrian is superior, and night flying is vastly improved. It is a huge improvement in the terms of graphics, and this would not have been possible when the sim was running mostly on a single CPU core. There is no doubt that 2024 was released with far to many bugs, but in the end, this will absolutly be a better sim. We just have to be patient.
@@theflyingdoctor Yes, this is actualy the real improvement in MSFS, but because people can't see the CPU core workload when flying, they can't appreceiate what this has allowed in the game. The Graphics are far better now, and that would not have been possible under the 2020 architecture.
And I would say this as well. The graphics on 2024 are better for any given Graphics global setting. Running 2024 using the "High End" setting gives better graphics than running 2020 at the "Ultra" setting did. or at least they do on my system.
I find the “it was overloaded” excuse to be incredulous. One of the major advantages of having access to a massive cloud system/network like Azure or AWS is that without buying additional hardware, you can literally fire up (temporarily use) a massive number of servers and data flows to actually VERIFY the performance before going live. I don’t discount the epic scale and amt of data/flows involved…but MSFT literally has COMPLETE CONTROL AND UNLIMITED USE OF AZURE yet still choked.
Hardware scalability and caching issues can be unrelated. Just like good hardware can’t fix bad software. Also I’m sure they did not provide an open Azure checkbook to Asobo. These are all charged back internally by departments.
I find the explanation totally believable due to my experience. I had pre-ordered the sim, but was on a trip when it was released. I installed it 2 days later with absolutely zero issues. I've seen some bugs but I'm sure they'll be corrected.
I have been banned from the MSFS official forum because i said the control bindings that are by default ara a Cluster F@@@ ..DO NOT criticize this game there is nothing wrong with it!
I wonder how we view the continual development aspect of the sim with the world updates...this was there in 2020. Most people just want the sim.to work, but it would be difficult to know how customers might be rewarded for their loyalty. You can of course request a refund and just run with the standard with GamePass. However, refunds are in the hands of the vendors... as for me, I just want to see action, and evidence of dedicated investment at a disproportional level to sort the sim.
Free aircraft are nice but please fix the aircraft already in the sim almost all of them have no pilots in them at all and others no instrument panels I use a series x to fly on fs2024 to this day not all of my fs2020 aircraft I've bought have arrived in fs2024 I'd also like my ww2 aircraft pilots avatars to show up as well .Most if not all my fs2020 aircraft in fs2024 have issues of some kind panels missing, pilots missing etc. I thought that Microsoft said that military fighters or bombers would be allowed to carry ordinance or have guns I've yet to see that as well 😢
@@theflyingdoctor How long? I set it and forgot about it and carried on playing for about an hour. Nothing happened. Maybe because I didn't set the clouds and I need to be under one?
I wouldnt mind the ability to buy the damn thing!! The payment portal has a massive bug that keeps demanding I check the info I have inputted when everything is inch-perfect correct. Someone tell Microsoft they're missing out on some cool $199 from my hard-earned resources.
2020 was a pile of garbage and so I didn't bother buying 2024 and I'm glad I didn't. The list of fixes in 2020 is still outstanding so their little 2024 list will also go nowhere.
Yet here you are not only watching videos about it, but whining about something you did not buy, have never played and have absolutely zero first-hand knowledge. MSFS 2020 is a great sim, as is 2024 - I'm guessing that you lack the funds to buy it and/or the computer to run it. Maybe stick to FSX.....?
The thing about flight simulation, if you look to say XPlane10-12, or FS2020 is that there are some peope who are simmers who love being part of the leading edge of pushing what is possible, and loving the customisable parts of the game (hence the community aspect and add ons). These folk will consider that identifying bugs, putting in fixes, and refining continually, is part of a journey. Whereas there is a gamer/mass audience element to the following - that we also need - who are looking for a more polished product. We need both. FS2020 became a superb platform for study level simulation (whatever study level means) through mods. Msfs also highlight what they will and won't proritise. Three outstanding features - the Navigraph/Simbrief integration, the sim being able to use multiple cores (way more efficient and faster) and the ever-improving flight dynamics. Despite a disastrous launch I think the sim is on the up.
I cant play online ik on xbox and just got gamepass ultimate

That's a superb summary- and I wondered when someone was going to highlight that all the cores in CPUs are now being used...
I am sure it will be really good, but it may take a little time. Yes, I agree that perhaps it was released a bit early. But I am thinking ahead.

@@shenmisheshou7002 - Yes, thank you, that is also what I am thinking - IOW it might turn out to be great!
I hope they fix how hard it is to use aim rate on a controller
I hope the surprise plane is one of the ejets. That would be great

Alright now give it a rest

@@baomao7243 also why a worldwide release at the same time!?
Any idea when they’ll be adding those new planes?
Nope. They may have said in their video. I think it is part of the next World Update.
I'm waiting for game to get out of "early access" before I go back! Game and planes clearly not to a standard for full release.
I'm still quite disappointed overall with this sim. However I know things will improve with updates and patches like fs2020 did it'll just take time
Navbigraph don't provide charts. MS use Lufthansa mapping
I have been banned from the MSFS official forum because i said the control bindings that are by default ara a Cluster F@@@ ..DO NOT criticize this game there is nothing wrong with it!
Next? More apologies and free planes

@theflyingdoctor mine was half price on cd keys so it's a keeper, as peeps say, 'its got potential!' I can wait:)
Static rotors on other players, wrong aircraft models, pop in and out way too close.
Multiplayer is TERRIBLE for a $200 friken game.

How do you get the rain? I turn up precipitation and it does nothing. I also don't get any lightning no matter how high I set it
The rain can tak a while coming!
@@theflyingdoctor How long? I set it and forgot about it and carried on playing for about an hour. Nothing happened. Maybe because I didn't set the clouds and I need to be under one?
Have to be under a cloud , the windscreen wipers still don't wipe the rain away or not in the Westland scout helicopter anyway.
@@vangoghoff5521 Thanks I'll have to try. Except I could hear rain on the canopy last night but couldn't see anything. Just mist. Maybe I was too high
@@ArcanePath360 ....I hope Ur talking altitude! ;)
