So glad I didn't fall for the hype and waited to buy FS2024. I'm perfectly happy flying FS2020 for another year untill the bugs are ironed out of the 2024 edition.
The biggest turnoff for me is the ui. It somehow takes time to select and load the different aircraft types in the menu, its so annoying and ugly aswell. Why couldnt they stay with the old ui
Personally I’m my opinion I think that MSFS2024 doesn’t feel as immersive as MSFS2020 the fact is that Asobo focused slightly more on career mode than the free flight mode which I think that asobo made MSFS2020 more easier when picking an airport than just waiting 5 minutes launching into a scenery that has a lot of data that has to be out in before you spawn Yeah I’ll stick with MSFS2020
Thanks Brandon - I appreciate your honesty - and I would have expected more of the same from the streamers. I have not bought 2024 yet and I won´t before we see a perfect working sim - but to be honest I am not optimistic that it will ever work as it is intended to. I think they should roll it back, re-think all basic concepts in the sim and re-launch it sometime in 2025 - when it works! With all the experience gained with 2020 I simply do not understand how the management of MSFS can fail to the degree they have done. I would consider letting "the next generation" take over.
Merry Christmas Brandon, this year has been amazing in the sim and the community. Thanks for all you do! And Merry Christmas to everyone and Happy New Year as well 🎉
I have given 2024 a good bash but it seems every flight has some kind of surprise. I am very disappointed about the control settings, it still gives me a headache. This sim should have been beta tested and released when ready. I have wasted several days trying to give 24 a chance. I do like the general improvements in scenery, l have noticed that and I really like the realistic turbulence while flying. I am looking forward to more updates but I’m staying with 2020 until I can actually enjoy 2024 without surprises and wasting time.
I feel career mode could have waited for another 6 months. Like MSFS 2020, they should have done closed beta, giving chance to iron out big bugs + give third party devs to update / make add-ons. Launch the game with core game / sim, with Great free flight mode. Launch market place. 6 months down the line, launch career mode.
MSFS2024 was just not ready for release. I made the mistake of purchasing it on day 1 and regret that decision - very frustrating experiences. I won't make the same mistake again. Back to MSFS2020 for me until I read that the new version is at a reasonably 'completed' state.
It suggests that if there is a next one (2028?) that MS should consider an extended Beta 2, open to anyone, and free to use, for load testing purposes, with perhaps a discount for participants once the sim is fully launched. I think that I'll stay away from 2024 fo at least another month, for the dust to settle.
There was an update/patch today suppose to fix certain airport impacts on fps … I went straight to Liverpool and Heathrow and still poor fps. But Leeds Bradford and EBBR (both purchased) are fine as before. So more testing and less actual flying lol 😂
G’day mate , cheers for the video, but I’m not bothering with the new sim, my loading times are terrible, it took me north of 30-40 minutes to get into career mode, and it takes 10-20 minutes to get into free flight.
I am so Glad i have Not wasted My Money I am Still Loving msfs2020. I Knew that there Would be Teething Problems But OMG what a Mess it so was not ready for release. just my opinion. 😌
Really can't decide how I feel about fs24. I really like some of the new tricks and effects but it just feels so 'gamey' and a bit cheesy to be honest. I like my sims to be gritty, serious sims like x-plane. This just feels so...... hmmm
I just got MSFS 2024 and the biggest drawback is that if you don't mess around with the Graphics settings the gameplay will be very laggy. I have a 3060 graphics card with 16 gigs of ram and most of my settings are on low which kinda sucks.
it still sucks. Really what is better in this versions besides vfr improvements? And a poor made career, and little better clouds?? Colors look washed out, loading issues, no marketplace, nothing added that was on the wishlist in 2020. No double jetways, improved turb. etc. Almost everything is worse than 2020 and will take years to add and fix again. Also for devs there are a lot of issues. Like come on. How can you not talk with pmdg and give them a preview sdk version. to iron out issues. The worse now is we wait for a next update somewhere in q1. Not said what will be fixed?
On the so far rare occasion of when it works I stand by it being more seamless than 2020, faster loading times, smoother performance, far better aerodynamic modelling and a superior natural environment, but as i’ve said in this video countless times, it’s not there yet, certianly not stable enough!
@@PilotStudd faster loading times are nice but you see a lot of people have issues with it. Blurred runways when landing etc. Yes for vfr its nice upgrade. Aerodynamic not sure not seen real proof it's that much better. Performance not sure you see a lot of issues with performance problems on the forum. I hoped for real seasons but also that is bugged. Only nice thing right now is the inibuilds a330 when you like ifr flying.
@ Completely understand the issues, as I’ve experienced them all, but at least for me (especially over the last few days) i’ve been able to have quite a good experience, the reason I still don’t recommend the sim (as I say in this video!) is for the exact reasons you list, hope this helps buddy :)
@@jordivandermeer601 from my experience turbulence is much more apparent and the addition of cirrus clouds really adds to the immersion. Once even more stable and consistent with other add one being made compatible, 24 has a lot of potential
I bought the sim on Friday and not once have I thought of returning it or refunding it purely cause I've got no issues, Now I do have top of the line specs and for me on ultra settings i get about 70 + fps throughout the flight no stutters or performance drops, the graphics are brill, planes are brill everything is fine including the connection to the servers so I'm not sure what people are complaining about.
Tried it once more yesterday, and it was still TERRIBLE, the graphics are awful, I have 1gb internet, it looks like an arcade game, it feels like an arcade game, for me, it’s not a simulator, 2020 is light years ahead, I won’t be looking at this game for at least another year, 2020 all day long

The old UI is rather nice, would be nice to have an option to have something closer to that

Great vid as always ✈️✈️
I still can’t change sensitivity on my rudder pedals or TCA side stick. I have even uninstalled and reinstalled. Not flying it for now.
where I live Starlink speeds doesnt even hit the minimum 50mbs for mf24 to load anything, quite sad

It sucks - layed off a week and tried it again today. Sucks 😢
How can they be working on stability issues when most of us are stuck on 68%....

Really like 2024. Dont use 2020 anymore.
Same, And I got all my streamed airports back.
It should be mentioned that the runway lights should be on in IFR conditions during the day as well
Good spot, i’m not too sure this happens in 2020 either
been using x plane for a while. will not switch yet
i haven't played MSFS 2024 yet, but i'll play the game on Christmas, the graphics are nice & relaxin' doe.
