I bought an Xbox series X 3 months ago to play msfs and i’m loving it, except for the bugs. I have a 4k TV so I am very interested in running msfs in 4k resolution but I don’t seem to get high resolution with my xbox. For players who have both an Xbox and PC, what can i expect if I move to the PC …

When you say not getting good resolution on your Xbox, it sounds like maybe your TV? The Xbox X runs at 4K with a 4k TV. But if you have a 4K monitor, the pixel density is usually higher, so it may seem sharper. In theory at least there should be no difference in resolution using a PC or Xbox X plu…

PC offers multi monitor (which should be implemented hopefully in July or September) and VR. I am a home cockpit / multi monitor guy. PC offers you to get started with a realistic home cockpit with external controls, if you are planning to take your simulator experience onto more realistic levels. …

I run my PC version on a 4K 65" TV.. However, I use for MSFS on my PC not the full resolution of the TV but I use widescreen format. (3840 x 1620 Pixel) in Windows. It gives you more visibilty to the sides in games. Like those widescreen monitors some people have. And the black bars top and butto…

Hi @NanooseGuy MSFS should definitely be producing a 4K feed into your TV. But according to Digital Foundry, the Xbox Series X, MSFS internally upscales from 1440p to 4K, maybe this is what you are noticing? but it should look pretty crisp. If it’s clearly a lower resolution then that’s an issue you…

I started on XBox. I was one of the most vocal members of the XBox community. But then some of my addons I bought would be broken with an update. And then I bought the PMDG DC-6 and Seafront Simulations AI shipping mods, which of course didn’t work when they came to XBox. I never got a refund on tho…

I have read on the hardware category discussion on resolution when choosing the ultra option — varying LOD. On my xbox version (disk, not cloud download), I do not have any graphics options that I can select.

Tgbushman, your comments ring home for me. The addons you mention (and others) are very interesting to me. I don’t want to invest in a costly, high-end PC only to lose interest in a couple of months. I am ready to upgrade — I just need to find the money (read ‘convince my wife’) :grinning_face:

I also played exclusively on XsX with a 55” 4K TV and loved it. But I was sick and tired of CTD with third party airports, even before the infamous SU9. I switched to PC. I can’t hook the PC up to the TV as they’re on opposite sides of the room, and I don’t want to move either. So I just play on a …
