16% now and slowly activating

same here, been stuck at 6% loading language for quite a while now, hope it start showing more progress soon… as I type this it at least changed to 7% yay, that means it isn’t stuck just slow.

Same here. Just at 10%. This is just likely more downloads to get the sim ready, this will likely be a one time especially when half the planet is trying to load this at the same time.

I am on a I4900K and for the last 19 minutes, I have only come so far as 13%. I have a 990 pro samsung m.2 SDD card. With 128GB DDR5 memory. Why does this part take sooooo long? I want to fly.

Guys, the game just released. It’s gonna be the slowest initial download you’ll see in the sim’s lifetime. A cubic bazillion of us are all installing the sim right now.

I would venture it’ll be far slower to install, and to load, today than it will be between now and FS2029…

At least the music’s way better than FS2020’s!

This VFS packets is not about download speed, but about creating a secure file system structure. Like NTFS or old days, FAT16.

Who at Asobo thought this was a good idea for the entire duration of the initial download?

Edit: None of the Nvidia control panel frame limiter options have any effect. Even after alt+tab and minimising the application it’s still just rendering as many frames as possible.

usual server saturation problem.

I was hoping that with the new concept of the game on the cloud this problem could have been overcome with the implementation of more servers and instead no.
