I've been excited about 2024 for a while but in most compare video that I watch, I prefer the 2020 look

This airport (NZMF) is a fantastic place to go glider flying in MSFS 2020, LOWZ being another. If you haven’t tried gliding in the mountains you should try it. Very different experience compared to flying a GA plane in the same locations.

well done brother

The 2020 version is more true to life, around the airport at Milford having visited in real life :)

I do not have any expertise or familiarity on Canada. I do am an enthusiast on both flight sim and weather/fluid dynamics. Just don't know about msfs 2024. Just from a European point of view. Few things. Msfs seems to be unable to distinguish altitude with seasons. Temperature decreases as a very rough rule of thumb usually 1degree celsius per 300 feet or 100 metres. Idfk about Fahrenheit, no one uses Fahrenheit. In the alps, it is therefore possible to get snow at 6000 feet as early as August or as late as June. It has snowed in the alps at 2000 feet in all months. In Alberta, I think Alberta is generally colder in summer, but its close, it might ever so slightly therefore be a year-round thing. Snow at 6000 feet is unlikely in Summer. Apart from that, and I know Alberta isn't like ya average tropics, you can easily get snow in October, easily. I actually think even where you live, everywhere in Canada snow is possible half October. This to be everywhere in Canada. To bring home my point, I think Montreal is the last place in Canada where, apart from Vancouver (very specific climate there in Canada), where it snows, historically, the earliest date seems to be there the 25th of September. In a land climate, typically from half October is when you can expect the earliest snow. However, this time is also very polarising. You can get 25 degrees celsius one day, 3 days after, or 6 hours later it snowed/snows. On altitude however, not even a question. This isn't snow though. This is baked in sattelite data. Msfs doesn't distinguish between altitude. The only thing is that in summer "snow" exists on mountaintops because satellite imagery has made these, and there does not exist data for Microsoft bing without snow. The terrain therefore always has snow.

Those fake aircrafts from Asobo still exist in 2024. That’s bad.

The big difference to me is at 2:50 where you see the pavement differences- much better in 2020 imo

I'm hoping 2024 runs well in VR..nice video btw,keep up the good work 👏 I'm subscribed 👍

2024 doesn't look good it looks very washed out

Irrespective of the graphics, unless VR has undergone a better optimisation I’ll be sticking with 2020 for the time being.

I was here yesterday in an R22. Amazing scenery in 2020

Keep in mind that it is 2024 Alpha which means it is not done and will have bugs

This is the alpha, it’s like everyone has completely ignored that. The alpha doesn’t represent the final sim.

What about Madeira Cristiano Ronaldo airport? Nice video

Checked photos of the second field, trees have been cleared on approach like 2024 but its a grass strip, no money here for a sealed/concreted strip out in the backcountry. So 2020 is more accurate. Btw there is another strip West of Milford airfield up a valley near a rather nice looking camping lodge. That would be a challenge to get into I think. Thanks. Laurie. NZ. 😊

Checked on native trees in the area, so 2020 on the second airfield looks correct as they get to 30 plus m tall and 50 plus m tall up around 300 years old. Laurie. NZ. 😊

its alpha more updates will be better

I've been through it in a helicopter (this was a VERY long time ago--1986), and it seems that the colors IRL are a bit more vibrant. This could be due to weather, air quality, any number of things. However, as far as the texture and scale, your video captures a lot of it, given that the Grand Canyon is one of those places that is barely even captured in IMAX. You simply have to be there.

The colors and cliffs look way better in 24 overall to me. 2020 is just overwhelmingly an oversaturated green to me. Also, I had the chance to fly in the Midwest US during the alpha and what they have done with farm fields is super compared to the grainy satellite imagery from before

the terrain colours in 2024 are so wrong which is really weird. Even if you load up bing maps the colors in Milford sound are way more accurate. I am excited around 2024 but they need to get some consistency and realism in texture color toning. Im sure all of this will just be semantics in the end though. Milford airport has mostly small trees and shrubs surrounding it. 2020 gets the representation much better than 2024.

Very exited for this beautiful new simulator

Agreed. I'm super impressed

4 years +hundred of bucks to REPAY FOR SAME STUFF + BLU HAZE FILTER that the dumbest programmer create in 5min and xPlane use from 3 years on mobile app + MISSIONS + an add-on system that Is NOT a Total Nightmare - the necessity to STAY ALWAYS ONLINE and preying that fiber connection could grant a decente graphics MICROSOFT IS ALWAYS MICROSOFT 😂😂

Excellent video as always, thanks

Just curious if there will be regular 'world updates' similar to msfs 2020 to add photogrammetry to cities etc?

Oh, if only someone (hint hint) could fly a helicopter over Fulham, London and do some aerial footage over the streets near the football ground. Great videos btw, many thanks.

on rough uneven places like a beach - I would normally do a stall-landing - reduce speed until a few knots about stall speed and then flare enough to lose the few knots - the aircraft winges but touches down at minimum speed then I do not press too hard on the brakes but with a balanced pressure to discourage skidding. ground roll can get loner in this condition but remains smooth.

You have nade a comparison with the payware Milford Sound expansion of NZA on. Despite this MSFS 2024 is much better, look even at haze that now is easily visible and those tree .... they look really like real.

I was watching the following real life video about the mountains at Milford Sound airport: ruclips.net/video/ielylawXHF4/видео.html , and those mountains at timestamp: 3:19 on your video do not look correct for MSFS 2024 Alpha, but more accurate in MSFS 2020. What happened to that big mountain on the right? Why has MSFS 2024 made that mountain less imposing and seemingly further away? This is not the same as real-life, so they have messed up somewhere. What do you think?

That was a great comparison. Keep at it. Practice makes perfect . I am pleased how much more natural the lighting looks in 2024. 2 weeks to go ! (Hopefully)

I was a passener in a 6 seater single engine flight from Queenstown to Milford Sound in 2002. Truly epic scenery.

Very nice 😊 greetings from Norway ❤🇳🇴❤🇳🇴

it looks amazing. Reminds me of the impression i had last time being their. Thanks for the nice video!

great video: but please next video about wind water and trees animation thx❤

Why render a 21:9 video in 16:9? Us 21:9 people now have hugh black bars all around instead of using the whole monitor

Great Video! Would like to see British Columbia footage!

Good Lord, never seen so many cruise ships in Milford!

the clipping around objects with water behind them is still attrocious if not worse than in 2020

Just so you know that is as far from what NZMF actually looks like than you can get. FS2020 has a few awesome versions available for that airport.

I cant believe they still havent sorted the live weather for Milford Sound, thank you for the video though.

Milford Sound <3

Dude, when you use outside view of plane, either turn your microphone up or the sim sound down because your very hard to hear.

MESH is still borked sadly.

I flew the tech alpha as well and did some of the same canyon flying. The jump in fidelity between 2020 and 2024 is nothing short of amazing. The small details really jump out as well, like have species correct trees and shrubs in the canyons instead of generic trees. I can't wait!!!

Your scale changes when you scale something.

Hi, Phil from the UK… re the monitor, I have a 4K but find when trying to run graphics at Ultra, things slow down a lot. (I have a good spec PC btw). However, as soon as I go to 2K, frame rates climb significantly, without any noticeable degradation of the image. We have always been told, Flight sim is a balance or trade-off, and so it seems. Hope this helps….

I can’t believe how good those canyon walls look. Makes me pumped for release!

Environmental shadow clipping still a problem that has plagued 2020 as well. Still not resolved

What i miss is real fog or adjustable fog/haze fs2020 doesn't have fog does fs24 have it ??

The fact you can do drive your plane on the beach like this proves that there's still some lacking realism, lol. Try that beach drive in real life and you would probably regret it. 🤣🤣 Seriously though, some incredible graphics, and I'll be excited to pop in and see it when the game launches! I've always been super casual - but just being able to putt around is an enjoyable escape once in a while. If you fly like you would in real life, we're getting close to a point where the game is indistinguishable from reality... which is downright breathtaking.
