The call from heaven is heard, now that the cries caused by the bugs have stopped!
After the storm, the clearing
The least we can say is that the release of Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 was disrupted. We have read a lot of puns evoking turbulence, even crashes. It is true that many players were forced to stay on the tarmac on the day of the official release, due to loading times.unusually long”, as was made clear on the screen of the stunned pilots. In a nutshell, the title was simply unplayablewhich did not fail to annoy players who went to punish the Asobo title on Steam.
Just to interrupt the growing discontent, Microsoft and Asobo have multiplied messages aimed at keeping fans waitingexplaining that the servers were “overloaded with requests”. “We didn't think demand would be this high and our infrastructure was overwhelmed” said Jorg Neumann, director of the Flight Simulator license. Sebastian Wloch, co-founder Asobo, provided more details, talking about the problems related to the database cache, the saturation of the servers, and the measures that were taken to that everything is back to normal. Good news, everything is (finally) back to normal.

“Problems resolved”
Those who have Game Pass or who have purchased the title have surely noticed: everything is much better. In a press release published on the game's website, Neumann see it”happy” to announce that the problems “are resolved”, evoking server reliability “greater than 99.99%”. Not bad, is it? When everything works, Flight Simulator 2024 turns out to be very rich. As we said in our review, it offers varied missions, a structured career, and spectacular graphics. Flight Simulator 2024 “opens the skies to an even wider audience while respecting the franchise's legacy”, we explained.
The Asobo teams do not intend to stop there and will release 2 large corrective patches soon. The first will land during the week of December 2, and the second will land during the week of December 9. These patches will aim to further improve the experience and resolve various technical issues, some of which are caused by third-party add-ons that prevent users from using the simulator as it should.
