Why I'm Worried About MSFS 2024 | Top 3 Concerns

Shout-out to Miltech Simulations for saying their FS20 aircraft will be updated for free for FS24 as soon as it comes out!

I share some of your concerns, but I think it’s too early to jump to any conclusions, at least until there is a lot more detail provided in the monthly dev updates. The trailer showed a lot of nice things as to how they’ll improve immersion, which makes sense since that’s what sells it for 80% of users, but it doesn’t mean the details you mentioned didn’t get implemented for us in the 20%. I imagine it’ll be feasible to install both 2020 and 2024 side by side, so that at least we can have a period where we use both, as things get updated and moved over, which is what I intend on doing. Thanks for the video Blu!

The biggest thing that MS2024 needs to be able to spread the workload over all threads of the CPU. It is absolutely insane that the current one only works on 1 or 2 threads of the CPU. It's 2024, let's not use 1998 coding anymore.

Yep, have a big motion platform and when moving from DCS to MSFS to differences in heave are immediately noticeable.

I think the key thing missed in this video was the talk about Marketplace items being moved over right? PMDG for example is on the marketplace so I'd imagine it also move along as normal. Of course we're five months out from an actual release. I think we'll probably get more clarity as we get closer to release.

I pray the default atc is somewhat fixed and doesn’t fly you into mountains

I have a question! Does the current 2020 sim have multi screen? Many years ago I could do it. All I can do is stretch the view to my 2nd and 3rd screen, which distorts the view. Your thoughts?

Blu, Bluebird was talking about updating their 757 to take advantage of any needed NEW features made available in 2024. For now, the assumption is that all of the planes will work with the old FM in play and third party devs will opt into the new one which doesn't take a lot of work to do.

I'm a real world pilot light single and twins.i use VR for that real experience and the only unrealistic thing for me is the crosswind .You won't get anything as bad as that in the real thing well over the top.

My question is will new planes like the Airbus 330 by Aerosoft will be available for folks that own msfs2020 as a downloadable/payware olanes that will work on msfs2020? Backward capabilities

Alot of dev have no more info than us on the backwards compatibility of their add-ons, and Microsoft confirmed that they will give an early version to developers so they can verify that it works correctly as I understood

As a developer what I can say about retro compatibility is that the add ons will work as expected(assuming great retro compatibility is implemented), but if you want the new features to work, the developer will probably need to roll out an update. For example, android 14 still supports older apps build for older version of android(for example, if I build an app for android 10, it will work on android 14), It work’s but new features that came with android 15 won’t work until the developer updates the app.

Actually I have the same concerns. 1 won’t it be too much of a game instead of a simulator. 2 will my add ons work properly. Is it really better from a flightsimmer point of view. For myself I’ll wait like six months before I consider to move to msfs 2024 . I aspect a lot of issues in the beginning and I’m interested in a realistic flight experience without having problems with the software.

Weird how my brother saw me flying on FS2020 and asked if there are things to do like transport or jobs kinda like roadrunner. I told him this new one might be like that. I hope its both a sim and somewhat a game.

1:55 Am I the only one who noticed in their trailer this helicopter has the main rotor turning correctly, but the tail rotor is turning backwards?

Agree with these and other comments - even though I cleared coaches, shaders on pc and game the dam micro stutters every time arriving at airports etc is a must fix for me in either version 🤔

Looking forward to what Jorge has to say at Expo next week on this topic. The flight model is a much debated aspect of MSFS 2020. I have many IRL pilots that recently moved from XP over to MSFS and their biggest gripe is the flight model and how the planes handle on the ground. Really hoping with all the new bells and whistles and programming that they can improve 2024 in various areas.

Oh blu! Its been a while man. You bring me nostalgia of pre fs2020 lockdown vibes. The background music is beautiful man, adds to the feeling of nostalgia. What is the music bro?

biggest concern is the flight model as it is probably optimized for xbox players on xbox controllers so they can easily do the helicopter pickup missions

Also wonder if the career style applications like A Pilots Life 2 from Simbit World how will that be compatible. Or virtual airline addons.
