@@naitorainWhat kind of comparison is that, LMAO! Completely different genres for completely different audiences. Both are good games for what they aim to achieve.
i've been saying this about all their reviews. it's so riduclous and makes all the games look like mush. like if there's ever a time to upload a 4k video, it's for a game review
Just commented the same thing before seeing this. We aren't saying you need to play in 8K, but have an intern take 2 hours to record some game footage encode one 4k version and one 1080p, upload them both to RUclips, pretend you're a viewer and compare the quality. Just try to make out even the broadest of texture detail on any surface that is even remotely moving. You are showcasing the work of a company that has managed to replicate the entire earth, real time shipping and plane data, tracked animal migration patterns, air physics, and increase ground detail by '4000%', yet you display it in a format where many of the quality increase are completely crushed by ultra low bit rate encoding. Please do better.
@@LogicalError007 Can you also see highway and train traffic, with real time amounts, roughly, of cars on the highways, and the real time locations of trains on the rail networks, both freight and passenger?
@@ncard00 Car traffic is not simulated but it's there for the sake of being there. I've seen addons made by community in game store that have real time, train and freight traffic. In 2024 these things will be there without an addon. No real time car traffic though.
I'm very excited with the amount of real-world data in real-time inside this game. Can you imagine a future where Microsoft Flight Simulator just becomes Microsoft Simulator where you can drive cars, ride bicycles, walk around, enter points of interests like historical landmarks (maybe in VR) and all that with actual data pulled from the Maps API and so much more.
much deserved. This game on its own probably justifies half of my gamepass cost for me.. it's been lacking but the rest of the year and 2025 looks good for gamepass. This is coming from a HUGE Sony fan who's looking for an excuse to play my Xbox SX more.
@@bfife22 lol no, now working with the Iracing team or something simmy? Hell yeah, just not someone that only cares about making it simpler for more sales rather than more realistic for being a true sim.
I'm looking forward to someday having realistic crash mechanics and damage models. Everything else is so top notch, but crashing with the plane being fully intact is kinda weird.
@Thamb0 yes, I'm sure plane manufacturers will happily simulate the absolute devastating effects of a plane smashing the ground at mach 2. I don't think any game in our lifetime will simulate anything after 9/11. If you like destruction, try beamNG - not microsoft flight simulator.
As long as you have a PC that runs 2020 now, you're going to have a similar if not better experience with 2024. Part of the reason is that they highly optimized the code for DX12 (which is now it's default renderer) as well as multi core CPU (which 2020 poorly supported). They also did a lot of work on the texture compression and LOD system to make sure it wasn't taxing the GPU as heavily. All of this was done so that the simulator could still work on consoles as they are a huge part of the market for microsoft. As a result for us PC users, we get an even better looking product that runs far better than it's predecessor
@@cptairwolf That's promising if it turns out to be true in practice. 2020 already ran pretty well for me at launch with GTX 1070 and Ryzen 7 3700X but of course the GPU was a big bottleneck.
Funny thing is all he said is just the surface of the real possibilities with study level airplanes, ATC simulation involving real people like Vatsim, cockpit building, shared cockpits, etc…
walk around first person view in msfs 2024 must be a visable character we all users can see during doing walk arounds or seeing them flying and interact in the sim or even walk in your plane as a gast in your plane who wants to fly with you for sightseeing and even speak to them this makes the sim much more livingly like a first person shooter idea thats so much fun in multiplay combined in discord talking to eachother
Does the game have any kind of "travel / relaxation" mode where you can basically just kick back and enjoy the flight without doing anything? I would love that while I recover from some health issues.

Career mode, is what this series needed for so long and why so many never gave this series an attempt. Now, like no one knows it has a career mode now!!!! They have got to get the word out there = STRONGLY!!!!
Why not give someone like me who has lots of storage space to have the option of installing it all? From time to time my internet goes out, so am I supposed to wait to fly somewhere else in the world? Maybe I'm mistaken and it'll be explained soon enough, but from my general understanding it's mostly dependent on having stable internet?
They're making this so realistic that they will spawn other simulators from this game world they've produced. Eventually Ship sims, driving sims, train sims etc. will come from this.
Sometimes a game comes out that is so insane and generational...that all you can do is be glad you are alive to witness it (and hopefully can run it well )
Just wanted to say a big thanks for this one, I really enjoy this guy reviewing and it's one of the first reviews I've felt more inclined to believe from IGN in over 3 years.
The game's system requirements, particularly the substantial 32GB of RAM needed for normal operation and a staggering 64GB for 4K resolution, may discourage a significant portion of the potential player base. While optimization efforts are crucial, it is concerning that such high hardware specifications are necessary for a smooth gaming experience. It is essential to strike a balance between visual fidelity and accessibility to ensure that a broad audience can enjoy the game without encountering technical barriers... It is important to note that all these factors could potentially lead to a lower rating score for the game. Optimization is a crucial aspect that should not be overlooked. Speaking facts, but kudos to those who can enjoy this one 🙃
I cant aait for this to come out, this will truly be life changing! I feel like im gonna spend more time in this than in my school, because im really addicted to my xbox console. Cheers pals! Hope you all have an amazing day and cheerful moments❤️ Much love , Big boss stefans
Official vehicles will never have crashes otherwise no company irl would allow their models being smashed. A great example is GTA cars which dont have real brands vs ETS2 which has real brands and models but no crash model
Do we know if we can do career missions outside of that mode? Like if we want to do Search and Rescue but not want to have to grind through the career to unlock it?
Why are the clips these type of reviewers play always nonsense crashing, ground loops into trees, overspeeding etc? Doesn't really back up that they have much authority to talk about the sim.
So it's The Sims stitched onto MS Flight Simulator. Let's hope this career mode has a military bend to it. We all want Combat Flight Simulator to return. And we still await crash dynamics to return to make it a real simulator experience.
I hope they implement in an official way that mod that adds every single electric line and transformers and poles on Earth and make it more optimized. But I'm dreaming with such things. Though, I don't see how they can pass on that since one man was able to do it years ago on their already existing product.
I screamed when I heard abt the animal system and flying through nature, im gonna chill by the amazon rainforests😂i hope we can do like tourist sight seeing flights on like jets or private planes , and hear people talk about what they are seeing🙈
Why didn't they show the plane collide the tree 4:01 or the other plane crash. They cut just right as it was about to hit 0:11 . Is there proper crash physic in the game??
There is crash detection but you can disable it, that's all this was - they probably didn't want to show on a video that they disabled crash detection.
My PC sounds like a jet engine when playing original, adds to the experience.
I'm still amazed I've gotten 2020 to run on my Steam Deck. Wonder how 2024 will run?
and when a new PC hardware is released:
"but, can it run Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024?"
@user-eq9rw7zi6iok..
