Although the launch of Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 did not go as smoothly as possible, the game's servers are now operational. But there are still a lot of things that need to be fixed in the game and the developers have released an update regarding this.
Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 gets better
After servers being unavailable for hours at launch, Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 is now available and accessible to everyone. Jorg Neumann, head of the franchise, said he was “pleased to announce that the issues regarding access and streaming have been resolved. » In more detail, the reliability for entering the simulator would now be 99.999%.
The servers are now working as expected, but the game still has some more or less annoying problems. Among the most problematic, we note performance not up to the level on Xbox consoles, or various crashes. Deploying a first patch has helped, but more work remains.
The developers confirm that they are currently preparing another patch due to release during the week of December 2, with further stability improvements and other fixes. But the biggest upcoming update is planned for the week of December 9, although its contents are not yet known.
Content removed pending resolution of related issues
One of the current issues also affects much of the content in the market from Microsoft Flight Simulator (the game of 2020) to Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024. Recent community reports show that some third-party add-ons are causing significant issues, including preventing certain users from entering the simulator.
The cause does not seem to have been found yet, but to avoid crashing access to the game, the developers have simply decided to temporarily deactivate all non-aeronautical content of Microsoft Flight Simulator in Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024. This is a big problem for those who purchased in the previous game and who therefore cannot use it in the new game, but the next update will allow this to be managed more finely.
As part of the update scheduled for the week of December 9, we will add the ability for users to disable/enable content on their own. We will also add a secure boot option to disable third-party content in case of a crash when starting the simulator.
