Hi everyone, I’ve been using MSFS 2020 for a while now with around 2000 hours of experience, and I’m wondering about the following before considering the upgrade: Does MSFS 2024 actually bring enough value to justify moving from 2020? How stable and well-functioning is the new career mode? …

I personally enjoy MSFS 2024 but I only play free flight. I have 6,852 hours in MSFS 2020 and don’t use it anymore. It isn’t even installed. For my purposes MSFS 2024 is just better. I hop on VATSIM or PilotEdge and fly high-end addons such as those from Black Square, A2A, Just Flight, FSReborn, COW…

As someone who flies exclusively in 2024 now, I would say it depends on what you want out of it. I only use the free flight mode, and it especially shines for VFR flights, but is also fine for airliners, with some issues (notably instrument lighting problems at night). I don’t fly career at all, bu…

[image] CagriTR4: Does MSFS 2024 actually bring enough value to justify moving from 2020? It entirely depends on the type of flying you’re doing. Free flight bush flights and VFR GA, it’s probably worth it. I can’t speak for other types of flying really. [image] CagriTR4: How stable and …

I’m a relatively casual flight sim user, though it is something I very much enjoy doing. I removed 2020 quite a while ago now, flying 2024 exclusively. A lot of the early problems have now been mostly resolved with SU3 and I think that for most people 2024 now works fairly well, though do be prepa…

2024 is slowly evolving, much like 2020 did in the beginning. You would have thought a new iteration would be much better right at the beginning, but it is supposed to be a full re-write, so…… that’s computer programming for you. I held off buying 2024 until the reports showed it had finally become…

I’m 16 days into my migration to from FS2020 to FS2024. It’s been a lot of work and frustration, but overall I’m pretty happy with 2024 at the moment. Things I like: 2 minute Sim load times (vs. 8+ minutes on 2020, with a ton of markeplace and community content) Night flying is very visuall…

For free flight, 2024 is performing quite well now. VRAM is still a problem. I see no reason to go back to 2020. For career mode, don’t bother, still riddled with issues.

”But yesterday I did two flights in the new Citation X, one in each of 2020/2024, covering the same ground, and I actually enjoyed 2020 more.” What was it actuallt that made you enjoy more in 2020?

You’ll only get better graphics, that is OK. Apart from that, MSFS 2024 is a frustrating bunch of bugs. I asked for it as a Christmas present, which means someone spent 140 euros, and honestly, I deeply regret it. The amount of bugs makes it more frustrating than anything else, and with every updat…
