For the first 15 secs I couldn’t tell which was which. I only figured it out after I realized the camera on the right side kept shaking because of whoever was holding it. Insane. Imagine what it’ll be like in 10 years…
Since the 90's (and probably before), I've been saying "Imagine what it'll be like in x years...". Even with MSFS98, FSX, etc., this is INSANE. Not perfect, of course. I'd be dumb to think it would be. But, the quality is excellent. Sometimes, the biggest noticeable differences are from the time the aerial imagery was done vs. current time or VFR slow n' low with some issues. Even then, if you didn't know the place, you'd see it as very, very realistic. Toss in head/eye tracking, butt kickers, DIY cockpit stuff, VATSIM, etc. and you're well beyond what commercial flight training simulators were 10 years ago, by a long shot. "Imagine what it'll be like in 10 years...". As long as they keep it up and don't stop developing it, it'll make this video look like a PS1 game... :)
The game's graphics are incredible. People who focus on ground level detail kind of miss the point, which is that all of the game's visuals optimally should be viewed from the perspective of an airplane, not street view. When you play the game the way it was designed to be played, the experience is optimal.
@YQualityo It's weird how high quality and low quality on the ground mingle together. For example trees and grass are epic, but then you have the post apocalyptic city streets. Hopefully eventually we get better photogrammetry systems. It's beautiful, but definitely not a walking sim yet.
@@RaccoonRepublicFor many of us, this game has become as much a walking sim as it has become an airplane sim. Do you know why? As you wrote, the graphics in nature are wonderful. And that's the point. Cities cannot be made better with current technology because they are based on images created by satellites. We can travel the entire planet, but it is impossible to model the thousands of cities of the entire planet in true-to-life detail. But even so, there are more famous hand-crafted urban objects that are beautifully crafted. And the game takes up 1.4 Terabytes of space in this form! The point is, the game is beautiful on the ground, in the mountains, in the valleys, on the savannas and on the water's edge, yes in natural environments. It's an amazing experience to travel the planet in nature with such graphic detail!
Damn that's awesome syncing of the two videos, and I actually thought the real one was on the left for a few moments there - I need to set up some cabin window views as it's not something I've ever done in ANY flight sim going back to 1982!!!
We're getting closer to looking like the real world, but you can still tell it's a video game, especially when you check out the horizon or the highway or the parking lot right before touchdown.
Very impressive! The one easy way to tell the difference here though(apart from the obvious camera shake) is the shadows and lighting, notice how the game is a lot brighter, and more crisp-looking, and the shadows are hard lines, as opposed to a soft smudge 👍 I think if they added a camera shake like some of these "realistic" camcorder fps games coming out, with softer shadows, then this would be damn difficult to tell the difference!
Looks pretty incredible. As said, trees issues aside the details look great. (I'm looking forward to the trees being fixed in next few months). That said, I often look at where the sim is and imagine how much better it's all going to look in 5-10 years! Hard to expect better, but its going to be fun to see the development
you can tell by looking at landscape directly below horizon line. it's very expensive to include all that distant detail, so they render it as a veil of fog.
The big giveaway for msfs is the cars. I do hope they end up remodelling them as the current ones arent that good ATM. I do really love this sims graphics though, 10/10 🎉
im sure that it would look 100% real if all you did was give the camera some grain and other effects to make it look like it was taken from a real camera, because in msfs you get a perfect view of everything, theres no phone camera resolution, and other specs that its going through before you see it, so adding filters and stuff like that would make it look a lot better, and also realistic camera shake, someones gotta do that for a video and compare it to real life like that because im pretty sure it would be 100% perfect, also how tf did you manage to sync it so perfectly lol, great job
A way you can tell the difference is the ground view. In have noticed on the right there is way more detail then then left. Another thing to point out is the camera quality iphone is different to a screen recorder on a device.
There seems to be horizon(atmospheric)-subsurface-scattering missing when looking into the distance (on the Flight Simulator)... this makes it look a tad less realistic. But this is nice stuff :)
I couldn't tell which one was MSFS 24 until I saw a truck disappear and turn in a weird way , great graphics , I think Microsoft reached photorealism on this one
I think at this point its the developers choice not to more accurately replicate the less 'clean' and bright look of real video. Because they sure could do it very easily from the looks of this
Very good - when you say 'ultra graphics in 4K', is that an add-on which one has to pay extra for, or is it just a setting within the simulator itself?
Wow 😮 I did not look at the beginning, so I did not know, which one is real and which is FlightSim. I really thought long time, the right is the Sim, until I saw a truck on the road disappear on the left😅
Pretty much default ultra in 4K with DLSS for this to avoid frame drops. This video is where there’s photogrammetry so that could also be a factor, a lot of ground textures still seem low res even with all settings maxed out and gigabit download speeds
very nice, but I don't understand why the wings in fs can't be more shaky like the real thing. If that would have matched I'd seriously had a hard time guessing
I love how whenever I attempt to record a video of a plane landing, there's always people cheering, but in these videos, there's never clapping and cheering at all 😭
This is the longest it ever took me to realize which one is real life lol Noticed which one was real life when one of the fking vehicles vanished into thin air on the road XD
i spotted it right a way the colors and reflection on the real is different the PIXEL version on the left view is too dull in the colors but it's close yes
That is pretty freaking good. Now I want to see a video matching a high speed Mach run in an F-18. I just don't think the speed simulation is correct in Flight Sim in terms of doing 1000 MPH....When I am doing MACH 1 in the sim it just doesn't seem like its going fast enough over the ground. I've seen hundreds of high speed fly byes as a ground spectator and it just doesn't seem like the jet in the sim goes as fast as I think when watching for reals. ...hahaha Did anybody understand any of that word salad? I guess I watched too much Kamala.
I wrote my own flight sim which doesn't have graphics nearly as good as this, but with a lot more wing flex and shake I think it feels more real than this- that and smoother shading with some grime and blur, they are very close, the discrepancies seem pretty superficial at this point.
Hi have subbed your channel and follow you regularly. As a senior I am learning but have a problem with moving aircraft over to 2024 from 2020. I tried to move the a380 over with no luck. It says installed but does not show up. Any ideas what I am doing wrong?Thx
It depends on the aircraft from the ones I’ve tried. Items bought in the marketplace should be automatically moved, it could be that some need an update to work properly. Hopefully the next update next week will allow for more to be used
Still looks too 'clean'. See how there is a haze between the wing and the camera? But in the game the "atmosphere" between the wing and camera is just perfect clarity?
Does MSFS really gets data from reallife? Thats awesome... but i think it is required to have a stable internet connection huh? Never played the game... but it looks so awesome and inviting...
The replay didn't animate the aileron movement...lol. If that was working and the devs implemented some better wing flex and flap shake/vibration then it would be hard to tell...all of which is totally achievable.
The way you synched this is incredible
Agreed. Only the time of day seems wrong (shadow in one and not in the other).
Time of day and year is matched to the footage, the shadow is more due to the clouds letting through more light
@@TropicalTech2 what gives away the fact its a sim is the ParkingLot.png
@@SimonGrayDK The shadows are definitely there, just notice that they're quite a bit softer in real life.
Amazing work!
For the first 15 secs I couldn’t tell which was which. I only figured it out after I realized the camera on the right side kept shaking because of whoever was holding it. Insane. Imagine what it’ll be like in 10 years…
Took me a few sec also, and the shaking was the only obvious give away. Playing this would probably melt my computer though.
Realistically? Not too much better. Look at most games from 10 years ago, they don't look much better than now, with the odd exception.
Since the 90's (and probably before), I've been saying "Imagine what it'll be like in x years...". Even with MSFS98, FSX, etc., this is INSANE. Not perfect, of course.

I don't know about you, but I fly the F16 about 400 feet above the ground inverted, just to look at it lol
I adjusted my console setting and tv setting and it’s absolutely gorgeous now
It took me half the video to make sure I knew which video game was the real one.
Of course it did
Stop being stupi_. You can see in thumbnail which one is which.
Really? You can see it very fast on the unreal shadows
What? While msfs is pretty realistic, its very clear which one is real life
Because the guy fly whis max graphics in flat places whis a good generation... but else it's 2020
I'm happy I've lived to see the full trajectory of this sim, from 1984 to now
Me too. Going to buy a Ryzen 7 RTX 4070 game rig so I can run 2024 @ ultra
Quite incredible - if we’d known how realistic they’d become we’d never have believed it.
I couldn't tell which was real until 1:27 when the truck suddenly disappeared in the left video
That was the real video. The truck and it's driver are still missing.
@@chaspfrankIt will be fixed in the next World update
@@Orikix What makes you sure of that?
@@chaspfrank On unrelated news: Eighteen-wheeler truck found hanging from control tower in Orlando airport.
You should have gone to Specsavers.
Damn that's awesome syncing of the two videos, and I actually thought the real one was on the left for a few moments there - I need to set up some cabin window views as it's not something I've ever done in ANY flight sim going back to 1982!!!
I had no idea which was which until the end when i saw the traffic lol 😂
That road always seems empty, was the same in FS2020 as well
@@TropicalTech2change the traffic density.
@@EmeryE2 It's on ultra and its fine on most roads, just some don't seem to have any traffic
Man this is just the single best video showcasing msfs24 out there
Agree, brilliantly made video
Real life needs to up its game.
So true
So so true!
haha yes... at least 8k and 240fps !!
The trees in MSFS 2024 are way overgrown. Other than that - very true to life
Well, it may be the result of climate change (too much carbon in the MSFS 2024's atmosphere) which trees and other vegetation thrive on! Hahahahaha!
This is so very cool! And syncs very well, while landing!!
Those straight cut shadows tell me everything
I need to start playing this damn game!! lol
We're getting closer to looking like the real world, but you can still tell it's a video game, especially when you check out the horizon or the highway or the parking lot right before touchdown.
You know it's good when you have to remind yourself which one is real. Great video.
Synched up perfectly. And looks so good too 🔥 FS2024 seems like a worthy upgrade from 2020
As always,great! thank you!
Thanks for the support!
Incredible video man!
Thank you!
Always very interesting perspectives, even if there is still a considerable difference
Very impressive! The one easy way to tell the difference here though(apart from the obvious camera shake) is the shadows and lighting, notice how the game is a lot brighter, and more crisp-looking, and the shadows are hard lines, as opposed to a soft smudge 👍

1:07 new warehouse completed!
LEFT SIDE looks more REAL LIFE than the RIGHT SIDE. This is MADNESS!
IMO what get's it done over MSFS2020 is the lower contrast in the ground textures which makes it less movie like but way more realistic
The warping of the anti-shake was a dead giveaway that the right side was the RL video.
Still an absence of road traffic in MSFS, that's the biggest giveaway as far as which one is real is concerned.
At least you can turn the crying babies off in the sim
Looks pretty incredible. As said, trees issues aside the details look great. (I'm looking forward to the trees being fixed in next few months).

I'm Amazed you manage to land it before it crashed, and I don't mean the plane, 😂
They certainly nailed the color saturation this time, wow. 24 is gonna be killer when matured with updates, locally cached addons etc etc
Absolutely incredible graphics!!!!!!
bravo to the french studio Asobo, it's incredible!
Amazing!!
Thank you!
Nice edit. Well done.
The big giveaway for msfs is the cars. I do hope they end up remodelling them as the current ones arent that good ATM. I do really love this sims graphics though, 10/10 🎉
I have never seen a more realistic video in my life
Can't wait to get a Thomas Cook livery on that A330.
left more shaky and wash out filter, then its perfect. nicely done with the timing!
im sure that it would look 100% real if all you did was give the camera some grain and other effects to make it look like it was taken from a real camera, because in msfs you get a perfect view of everything, theres no phone camera resolution, and other specs that its going through before you see it, so adding filters and stuff like that would make it look a lot better, and also realistic camera shake, someones gotta do that for a video and compare it to real life like that because im pretty sure it would be 100% perfect, also how tf did you manage to sync it so perfectly lol, great job

It was the truck doing a Houdini that did it for me
There seems to be horizon(atmospheric)-subsurface-scattering missing when looking into the distance (on the Flight Simulator)... this makes it look a tad less realistic. But this is nice stuff :)
Yeah I agree, early in FS2020 you could change aerosol density to get this effect but that got removed and isn’t in 2024 either
This is incredible
Just incredible
The ailerons are not doing anything. but i suppose thats a replay glitch. Which asobo still didn't fix....
Thank you for sharing : LIKE 652 for you :) Greetings from Poland
Thank you!
Wow. It's only the screen space reflections that give it away
This has to be a trick, they both look real
Look at the wing, the left looks so fake
I couldn't tell which one was MSFS 24 until I saw a truck disappear and turn in a weird way , great graphics , I think Microsoft reached photorealism on this one
I think at this point its the developers choice not to more accurately replicate the less 'clean' and bright look of real video. Because they sure could do it very easily from the looks of this
I already traveled to orlando! I like too much to travel in Orlando!
Very good - when you say 'ultra graphics in 4K', is that an add-on which one has to pay extra for, or is it just a setting within the simulator itself?
This is just the base game running with ultra settings in 4K resolution
Wow 😮 I did not look at the beginning, so I did not know, which one is real and which is FlightSim. I really thought long time, the right is the Sim, until I saw a truck on the road disappear on the left😅
Awesome. They just have to work on those ailerons now.
They are better than what is shown, its just the replay mode that limits them unfortunately (should be fixed at some point)
Good work!
Thank you!
Pilot here, easiest way to spot the real one: Large aircraft wings are designed to flex during flight. The simulation wing is far too steady.
That's a bug with replay mode unfortunately, its much better than shown in-game
It crazy that video game graphics have went this far in realism but I still think we live in a computer simulation as our reality we live in
We needed to be faster than this me over 30 years being in graphic world.
The case when the graphics look better than the reality in the video
One of the few good things about msfs 2024, the graphics.
I'm waiting for the real-life patch because the graphics machine that processes it throws the frames per second out of sync and seems to shake.
Could only tell cos of the crest thats it wow. I need this but dont own a pc or gaming laptop. Nah i need this loving aviation
He difference?
1 water reflection
2 the flaps are moving to counter wind movement on right while in wok it doesn’t move
i ruun ultra asw and my game doesn't look like that. great video just wondering if you can post exact settings?
Pretty much default ultra in 4K with DLSS for this to avoid frame drops. This video is where there’s photogrammetry so that could also be a factor, a lot of ground textures still seem low res even with all settings maxed out and gigabit download speeds
very nice, but I don't understand why the wings in fs can't be more shaky like the real thing. If that would have matched I'd seriously had a hard time guessing
The shadows edges on the fairings is too sharp; but still an impressive comparison
phenomenal !
If the shadows were softer, it'd be really hard to determine which one is real from a first look.
The video on left looks way better than real life. The video on the right looks a lot like Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020.
did boeing ever think of drag chutes to reduce brake wear?
While mcfs is nice, it still has alot to improve
Took me until 00:34 when I saw a little bit of a weird artifact in the left video to know which one was real lol
It could improve a little just on color.
I love how whenever I attempt to record a video of a plane landing, there's always people cheering, but in these videos, there's never clapping and cheering at all 😭
Close. MSFS didn't get the wing flex quite right but man.
Wow.
couldnt tell which one is real until I saw the truck disappeared like a ghost
This is the longest it ever took me to realize which one is real life lol
Noticed which one was real life when one of the fking vehicles vanished into thin air on the road XD
i spotted it right a way the colors and reflection on the real is different the PIXEL version on the left view is too dull in the colors but it's close yes
Ngl the sim looks more realistic than real life
but i see the sky in my game is still unreal ,yours is more natural so how to make this ah
I have all settings set to ultra, it could be that
The game’s graphics are great.

The main thing that still needs work is air texture
Is there a camera shaking software you are using
It’s added in post
I wrote my own flight sim which doesn't have graphics nearly as good as this, but with a lot more wing flex and shake I think it feels more real than this- that and smoother shading with some grime and blur, they are very close, the discrepancies seem pretty superficial at this point.

One day, simulation will be more realistic than real life.
Real life is lag-free though

Yeah, the entire world is there (some places are better than others) Internet speed is recommended 50Mbps
They need to patch the shaky-cam in the real one
both look like real
Shame they still cant get horizons and haze right as that looks almost real up until you look at the horizon and it's completely screwed
