I am seeing a lot of, “Yeah they fixed a lot of things but they didn’t fix (my relatively obscure bug that I obsess over) yet!”
And that is a good sign.
That is par for the course for early sim patches.
Not seeing a lot of game breakers.
Big seeing a lot of regressions.
Same here, despite Steam downloader saying all files were validated when it finished.
It only takes 12 minutes for me to delete and re-install the sim on Steam.
You people are being way too harsh. Go ahead and flame me if you wish. Games being released early and in a BETA state are the new norm and have been for over 10 years. Accept it or don’t. MSFS2024 is a massive undertaking with a LOT of moving parts spread across several companies. Crying about it isn’t going to fix it. Go play another game and come back to the sim later if it is making you THAT upset. Or better yet, since a lot of you seem to know all about how this “should” have been done. Go make your own software company and develop your own simulator. If the money you spent on this program is that big a deal to you that you cannot have some patience then maybe you should reevaluate your finances and not spend money on games.
Lots of CTDs in the aircraft menu. Started happening last update and has not stopped in this one.
Did you mean to respond to me? Because I was anything but harsh in my post lol.
Same for me
lol…no not specifically aimed at any person. I just hit reply to post and yours i guess was the last one. I’m not an avid forum user. I rarely post.
VR missed out…and now the toolbar doesn’t work.
Jorg said VR had it’s own platform now. Well, he was correct, because VR in this game (yes, ‘game’ ) is now unusable in VR.
Thanks Jorg; really helpful.
Back to Msfs2020 for the foreseeable future. I just knew I’d regret buying this 2024 pile of rubbish.
Oh ok, and you’re right, MSFS 2024 is a massive undertaking, it’ll take time.
I mean MSFS 2020 took 4 years to get to where it is now.
I have working taxi and landing lights on the 38M… runway takeoff lights must be really weak because I don’t notice too much difference when they’re turned on
I’m frustrated too. I left simming when MSFS2020 came out (i was on P3dV5) and decided to wait on MSFS2024 so believe me I get the anger but after 40 some years of the internet, people still think that flaming on forums is the way. It isn’t.
oh then It must be something off on my end. I was going crazy thinking they actually didnt fix the missing landing lights on the B738M.
Ill jump in and try again 
Been grounded since day 1 because no working external lights on a airliner flying up north at dark days and nights is a no/go.
NIGHT VISION lol. P3D had night vision, why doesn’t MSFS2024??
Night vision would be cool. Xplane has it.
But why is blurry textures not fixed
I’m stuck at work. Any chance someone can take a look at OMDB or EGLL and see if the missing terminal buildings are in yet? OMDB i think is missing all of the main terminals and EGLL is missing the East Term 5 Sat term.
because who needs external lights or night vision when your internal lights is like this
Pretty sure the flight deck is about to achieve thermonuclear fusion.
yeah i get that too i found that i have to manually fix the brightness on each displays knobs. Sometimes it reverts back to that bloom though. What VID CARD you using? NVIDIA? check your NVIDIA APP Graphics settings maybe. Turn off HDR? That helped mine a bit.
Today’s game dev is a complete disaster, and your justification of this mess only makes things worse. Gamers should demand quality for the money they spend, not accept half-finished products at full price. The fact that something has been going on “for over 10 years” doesn’t make it normal or acceptable. “BETA as the norm” is pure laziness and shows a lack of respect for customers.
No, I don’t need to start my own company to criticize, just like I don’t need to be a chef to know when something is inedible. If companies take my money, they need to deliver a product that matches their promises—not an unfinished mess. If they can’t do that, they shouldn’t release the game at all. MSFS2024 is just another example of big companies increasingly treating gamers like cash machines.
It’s not gamers who need to “reassess their finances” but game developers who should start respecting their community. If I pay full price, I have every right to expect a full-quality product. End of story.
I hope one day you go to a restaurant, pick a beautiful dish from the menu, and the waiter brings you raw ingredients and tells you to cook it yourself. Because “that’s how the culinary industry works now.” Let’s see if you’d defend that too, saying it’s “the new norm” and be grateful you even got the ingredients.
You are right of course, but it is not necessarily wrong to voice one’s disapproval.
I honestly feel cheated
By the lack of honesty ladled out to Microsoft’s customers this time. I’ve been simming since 1975
and I was an RAF pilot from 1980, so I do know a little. Point is though that unlike 2020, this latest incarnation really is an Xbox game, not a simulator…or so it would seem where priorities are involved.
4 years seems a very long way away.
feel better flaming me?

I am quite adept at cooking so that would be grand to cook my own meal at a restaurant. I would pay them for the privilege of using their kitchen. Pick a better analogy.
