Anyone other Xbox users just fed up that 2024 is completely unplayable?

I haven’t had any major problems on xbox series x, apart from I have to use a mouse at the moment for the efb. I flew a 3600nm flight in the A330 the other day from doha to Iceland with no problems. Just tried the sim with the su2 beta latest update and what a difference with scenery, no melted buildings, trees perfect as I flew over San Francisco.

Having looked into my settings, they are indeed tripling what you have displayed yet I’m getting a worse experience and with no clue as to why

2024 has been a joke on my Series X. Every aspect of the game is a step down from 2020. It’s clear why 2020’s Xbox release was delayed a year past PC. As it stands now, it’ll probably be another two years before this ripoff is capable of running at 30 fps.

It’s absolutely mint on my series x with the new build. I’m sure a lot of it is what time of day it is, though I just did a four hour flight from Sweden to the isle of man in the vision jets and it was flawless, awesome scenery from departure to arrival

All those wows about fs24 on xbox make me suspect there is huge gap between my sensoric fps acceptable minimum and sensoric needs of others… :thinking: I never ever experienced decent performance like 50-60 fps in fs24 :smirking_face:

It is widely known that Microsoft Flight Simulator’s performance varies a LOT depending on how complex and efficient are:
-the airplane you use;
-the airports you fly from/into;
-scenery, POIs and photogrammetry;
-if you use add-ons for other things, like custom lights and weather;
-internet connection;
-the time when the sim is used, as there could be more or less players online, affecting streaming performance;

ALL of those factors affect 2020 and 2024 alike.
Oh, and if in your simming ANY of these factors are not equal or similar to other users reporting better performance, I’m afraid your little humblebrag is unfounded.
Just for some context, I’m on Series S, fly pretty much only airliners (ini Airbus, PMDG 737) around relatively large metro areas with PG on, but rarely in the US or the DACH area, the two regions with the most lavish treatment.
SU 4.18 is not as good as 4.17 in my system, but it is far superior to 2020 in comparable flights. Has your experience been very different?

Thought I was the only disgruntaled MSFS 2020 and now 2024 XBox user! Ready to junk all it.

Just trashed my flight controllers and xbox serie s tired of having to reconfigure and set up my system every time i turn it off and back on.. going to go for more walks and enjoy a book

I’m a new user to XBOX-X and Filght sim 2024. I’ve found the controls to be difficult and very hard to understand. Not sure I’ll keep this…

The game is not playable on Xbox. Asobo aren’t good developers. Can’t even get simple views without several hours of faffing around.

Eh? So what have i been playing for the past 14 months . Yeah the sim was dodgy up till su4 but still playable and since su4 it’s very playable on series x. Near enough every flight for the past 14 months in over 30 different planes have been successful for me. From what I’m still hearing though career mode is still broken.

So how do you switch to a window seat showcase view instantly then back to cockpit??

The same way as we did on 2020 - by getting a keyboard and assigning custom cameras to keys

Edit: And to be fair, changing cameras for admiring the view doesn’t exactly make it unplayable

There are many videos on YT on how to set custom cameras, increase visual realism, operate EFB and perform pretty much any task in FS24.

Im not really into taking an outside view that often as I prefer the realism of flying only from the cockpit

For me fs24 will stay unplayble untill they fix the white dot trapping in cockpit - 1+ year allready!!:exploding_head::exploding_head::exploding_head::exploding_head:

You can turn the white dot off in the options menu

But you can’t stop the invisible white dot from getting stuck and it sucks. Number one wish list item for SU5

The folks I fly with on xbox are quite happy with the results. Not sure what you mean by “not playable”? I see them flying right along side of the rest of us without a complaint. Most are elated they don’t have to by a high end PC.

If your friends on the Xbox don’t mind playing like this :down_arrow:… then ok…
