Same problem

Same problem for me

Live weather is also down it seems.

Same here. No marketplace, Authentication Service is unreachable message after trying to log out and in again to reset it.

Connection lost here too. Just when I was thinking I haven’t had issues with the sim for a while.
Apparently 2024 is working? This is one of the reasons I’m hesitating to switch to 24, I’m worried it’s even more depended on the connections…

Have 2020, MS Store version.

Hi all,

Please keep an eye on our Online Services Monitoring page here on the forums, which will be kept up to date.

Thanks for your patience as the team work to resolve these issues as quickly as possible!

I don’t know if it is connected, by i just had 2 ctd’s in 2024 as well and all loads very slow in there…

Hi all,

Can those of you who were facing issues in MSFS (2020) earlier today let me know if you’re having any success now, and if there are any features still unavailable?

Thanks

I was having issues with the live weather option not being selectable, and trees missing from the terrain. The trees came back, and the “live weather” option can now be selected again. Loading times also appear to be notably faster now than they have been for the last couple of weeks. … And it just CTDd. Restarted again. As per a different post, live weather clouds are still not being rendered when METAR indicates these should be present.

No live weather for me at least since 10am GMT.

Store and online functions where not working earlier today. Everything seems back to normal now.
