I cannot wait to see more about MSFS 2024 as further development is revealed to us.

It really sounds like a monumental amount of fidelity change and that is going to be incredible for us all.

It is so good to see this sim alive and well supported.

(Jörg is awesome. I love his candid ways.)

2024 looks incredible with all this new tech, great presentation and I eagerly await more details in the coming months!

That said MSFS team, is there a possibility you can release at least the screenshots used in the presentation deck in increased resolution?

Which ones do you mean? Most of the footage were stills from the trailer, the videos were inside the current sim to test the new improvements and some pictures were just real life photos as they talked about features (like improved storms) it seems…

So I’m talking about these at the timestamps below for example, those are in-sim shots I believe:

Nope, they are not.

Overall looks + Google Lense analysis of a screenshot I took :wink:
This will point you to the photo, just like above.

Oh I see, so those smaller pics of 4 per slide in the deck are all IRL shots to illustrate their points then… ok cool. So no new visuals shown in addition to the initial trailer that you spotted?

I did not check all pics from these slides but I did not discover anything that to me looked like new in sim footage besides the terrain showcase from Jörg about the “evolution” of the new terrain detail handling.

Ok so that means the one in the top left with icebergs and great clouds is also a photo. roight!

so…is there free flight? yes or no?

Yes as otherwise “you can start everywhere” would not have made any sense as well as building a digital twin of earth. They just could have done specific places if it was just about missions and career :wink:

well, you do have a good point there! Plus, even MS Flight had free flight.

Basically the whole franchise was about flying free in first place, so this won’t change more than likely. Also it would be hard to integrate addon aircraft if that part would have been cut :wink:

Is anyone else having trouble with the audio? It’s really weird, I can’t make out what’s being said, it’s cracking and low volume, IDK. I thought my headphones were broken for a sec.

My only disappointment now about MSFS2024 is that it isn’t MSFS2023 :laughing:
