Lack of Communication from Microsoft and Asobo

And less support when they numbers drop so low the allocate most of resorces to the next game.

Huh? What does that mean?

I’m very patient with bugs etc., but I see more efforts trying to hide the volume of problems than to fix them.
It is probably my last visit to this forum since it does not help users, just a place to check other users frustration. Depressing.

Hello @CptPlaza,

We are not making any efforts to hide bugs. You can see all the bug reports submitted by players in the Bug Reporting Hub section of the forums. The reports we have entered into our internal tracking tool will be tagged with feedback-logged or bug-logged. Issues that have been resolved will be tagged with fixed-on-live.

Thanks,
MSFS Team

It looks like people are going back to MSFS 2020.

Blue is MSFS 2020
Green is MSFS 2024

This is due to:

  • Lack of communication from Asobo and Microsoft
  • MSFS 2024 should still be a beta title.

I want to know when more 2020 content transfers will occur. I’m still missing about 15 items, not including fly Tampa Vegas. many items are still marked as disabled not available.

I mean, MSFS 2020 is an excellent fallback option so it’s not surprising.

Instead of it being released as a beta, it would have been more appropriate to have released it as ā€œearly accessā€. Then release a beta, then a final release…:wink:

Where and when will this be published?

Thanks. Pleased to hear that people have had time to relax over the holiday, which is important. I’ll be looking forward to all updates / fixes that apply to both 2020 and 2024 across Xbox and PC to get us ALL simming again.

But you are making a lot of effort to not communicate what bugs are activly worked on and can be expected to be addressed in SU1 and what bugs will have to go to the backlog.

And there is a a lot of effort put into ignoring VR alltogether and not giving any substantial feedback to VR users at all.

All we get is a generic " we are working on it but we do not tell yoh on what and when you will get it".

And this is nothing else but ā€œbach to business, as usualā€. A massive ignorance to the current stste of the sim.

Of course none of this is aiming as you personally or any other community manager.
I understand that you can only communicate what is signed off.
This is aimed to the product manager who decide to not release any useful information.

would it be too much to ask for the issues that have been fixed on live to be listed in the patch notes, like every other developer does when releasing patch notes?

in the space of 3 patches we’ve gone from 50±line patch notes, to 3-line, and now to 1-line.

Hello @speedwayst4r,

The patch notes always list every change in the new version. Today’s hotfix release only resolved a single issue, hence why the patch notes had only one bullet point.

Thanks,

After the failed launch of the MSFS 2024 simulator, Microsoft / Asobo has learned nothing. The developer still does not communicate clearly, we do not know what kind of repair work is going on in the background. There are hundreds of bugs, I would like to see a list of what they are working on, what bugs they will fix in January.

My opinion is that they still do not care about us, there is no honest communication. Microsoft / Asobo said that they are watching and reading the forum. I do not think they will do this, because then they would see what the community needs.

Unfortunately I was wrong…Content.xml duplicates entries on every start! - #66 by MaGer1965

I agree …you could argue its in MS/Asobo’s interest to have more playing 2020 at the moment than 2024 …
People have bought 2024 …so cash in pocket.
No market place yet in 2024 …no further revenue, however the 2020 marketplace is still open…$$$$

Why do you think that is the case? What would marketplace opening do? You already have access to all the existing addons that you purchased in the marketplace.

The marketplace being closed off prevents new purchase.

The only thing I can see is that more developers may release compatible versions when the marketplace opens up. May be that will increase the engagement number. I hope that is indeed the case as I also want this new sim to succeed.

But without some major fixes coming in soon, I don’t see this sim becoming great anytime soon. May be in 2 years sure, 2020 took that long to.
