[Polls] Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 Sim Update 5 Feedback (PC/Xbox/PS5)

I paid full price :skull: but yes the sale hasn’t reached PS5 players

Hi folks,

Thanks for making us aware of the issue with the Carenado sale on the PS5 Marketplace.

I’ve escalated this for investigation by the team.

Thanks
The MSFS Team

Did I? I had a sale in the Turkish region

With every long haul flight a huge stutterfest ( not flyable ) after 5 hours +

Grrrrrrr also again “ hashtag” in the ATC

Those are bugs solved in previous version 
 and where applicable before that.

How come these ald bug are happening again ??!!

So frustrating

Still no sale on PS5 @Chewwy94 despite the landing page banner advertising it as thus!

Yesterday, I flew a mission out of the Mexico region. Well they were a magnificent set of clouds with the weather radar working a treat in the PC-24.

Honestly, I don’t know if they have been updated yet but I cannot see why folk are complaining about them - although that seems to have calmed down.

The downside was - as it was the 2nd flight on the PS5, the stutters were very bad at the airport and on the runway. They did clear up once aloft.

The PC-24’s landing speeds still need correcting, particularly on the smaller runways, it’s crazy and causes crashes and revenue and reputation loss!

Just tried to do the Heavy Cargo mission on PS5.

Once the airbus loaded in it said I did not have enough memory so it disabled my AVIONICS - really???

I entered the cockpit and the mission immediately failed! I did not even have time to touch a switch or get the EFB out or get the INI EFB switched on.

It has now tanked my reputation! Come on Asobo - how are PS5 players supposed to even play this game?

EDIT
I had to exit sim, clear cache and then it allowed me to fly. This was after I only did 2 x 2hr cargo flights yesterday. It shouldnt run out of whatever memory that fast, surely - is this the sim or the limitations of the PS5 machine?

And again the same updates 3.1 GB and after that the 3.2GB. Same as yesterday and I’m not on the Beta side.

Why
?!

Anyone else getting constant radio chatter in PS5 Career mode? It is non-stop - I have live traffic disabled? I can’t find a switch to turn off ATC chatter - I didn’t even know this was a thing in the in sim career mode.

I just completed the Heavy cargo gold mission in the A330-300P2F on PS5.
While descending through the clouds near Marseille the stutters started in all earnest. OR Should I say graphics stalls, thats what it was. It would descend for 1 s and then stall for 2 s and so we went on all the way from the arrivals proc until the stormy clouds cleared for a clear landing.

It seems the wonderful cloud formations and rain are upsetting whatever graphics is in charge of that. I will say again, as soon as the clouds stopped, the stutters stopped.

I hope that’s helpful to Asobo to know!

Just to add, I had cleared my cache prior to doing this mission so it is not that!

Clouds can be a pretty heavy hitter on a PC.

As a PlayStation player, I just feel like I’m being taken for a ride.
Not only have we had a game that’s unplayable for over a month, but the communication has been a joke, and we still haven’t received any decent updates.
No, they’re focusing on sales to squeeze even more money out of us, instead of giving us a game that actually works—one we’ve already paid a lot of money for.

But no, you can’t even get the sale right—not even that works.
Big announcement, huge banner, but do PlayStation players actually get the discount? Of course not

It’s such a pathetic, terrible way to treat us PlayStation players.

Do your customers mean nothing to you? Is the main thing just to rake in the money, and now you’re looking for somewhere else to play?

Is there at least an apology and compensation in the works?

Actually, this should be reported to consumer protection agencies.

I reported this 2 days ago above, post 1223/4 for the PS5. The Community manager said he raised it. However, sometimes I feel it’s about maximising profits. If they say it is a sale and folk just go to the MP they most likely buy without realising there is no sale for Carenado products. Honestly, there is a lot that is not right with the MP.
From dishonest advertising, bot votes on the products, AI pictures, so yes. This is an American based Co, they don’t care at all how you spend. It is a well known fact here that “buyer beware”.

Today same updates 3.1 GB and after that the 3.2GB again. Now 3 day’s in a row. What is it for and why the need to install this every time again?!

It’s great that minor fixes are being implemented (though 3GB isn’t small). It’s better to detect what’s been fixed and what’s broken in the system. I’m all for minor fixes, not major fixes every six months. Yesterday, I flew for an hour at 1,000 meters in an area not covered by photogrammetry, and I saw the simulator at its best yet. I’d like to keep it that way. Settings: hight, RTX 3060 12gb, 32 ram, 2560x1440.

Think a few weeks of silence is bad, well if it makes you feel any better we had 2020 su16 which was simply the single worst example of software development, visual downgrades, uncaring and complete absence of acknowledgement or engagement with their community by Asobo for nearly 12 months now.

Appreciate the emotions I read here, believe me I have been there. Unfortunately they will sip their latte and get paid no matter how much they degrade the experience for us is the sad reality we must accept.

At the airfield: stuttering.
During takeoff: stuttering.
En route: stuttering.
On approach: stuttering.
After landing: stuttering.
This stuttering kills the immersion—it kills the game!
I WANT SU4 BACK. NOW.

Same here
 “Your game needs an update” again and again

When i start the MSFS 2024 simulator, i nearly always have a “fake download” of 3.1 GB, directly three times in a row, before the game loads
 The whole process takes 2–3 minutes each time and after this, it loads to the main menu


But when i look at my live internet traffic tool, there are always only a few KB of download data, never 3.1 GB! :man_shrugging:t4:
