Why I Was "Wrong" About MSFS | Real Airbus Pilot’s Analysis | Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024

[@Eichetheking]

The jetbridge being attached to the glider in the background at around 17:29 is comedy gold

[@speedbird8326]

OMG that's hilarious ! I saw a glider also parked at KSFO at an aerobridge. Quality Asobo programming right there.

[@G_de_Coligny]

Just standard microsoft quality control…

[@jesseordonez5088]

The floating jetways are also right up there! Get it? 😅

[@peterregan8691]

Not airliner related but yesterday I took the paramotor up for a lazy sojourn around the Lake District in the late afternoon sun. Landed on top of Crag Hill, walked up to the summit of Grisedale Pike to take in the scenery, then flew back down to the camp site at Braithwaite. I’ve done the walking bits in real life a few times but not for a few years and my word it brought the memories flooding back. All in VR, what a sim, incredible!

[@RJ-lh8vm]

I’m having fun, and getting pissed at the same time. For example, the Cessna I bought for my company, decided to had a brake failure on landing, ran off runway, crash with some trees, lost a lot of reputation, and ended up with a $140k repair bill. That’s a lot of missions to repair the plane. My bad I guess, since technician did indicated landing gear needed some maintenance.

[@jxk4500]

I was surprised with all the hate tbh - I knew it would take a week or two to iron out but im generally convinced MSFS 2024 is a serious step up.

[@beijingpete]

There was a bit of a gen Z tantrum going on I feel.

[@frap9965]

Well it’s obvious it was a bad start but I was confident it would become a better sim. And it’s starting to get there little by little

[@Hobbes22]

Completely agree with you. It looks like it is going to be something special after the initial issues.

[@christopherbernhardt]

@@beijingpete I don't think it was a gen z tantrum. I think it's upsetting seeing everything go so online. The idea that I should download every aircraft every time I want to use it is a bit crummy and you see a lot of issues from that.

[@edwardsutherland461]

Fair play to inibuilds for politely feeding back and you revisiting it, it's refreshing given the state of discourse on this (and lots of other things) at the moment. I still haven't dived into 24, my fingers were badly burned by the opening week and the bugs I experienced.

[@elmar001]

Grow up! geez!

[@gervanwilliams1409]

Yep. Three CTD yesterday. I’m also still setting up my Honeycomb Bravo and TCA Airbus. I’m also not seeing the “amazing” scenery and texture some folks are excited about. 2020 is by far in a state of enjoyment. Maybe 2024 in a few months.

[@edwardsutherland461]

@elmar001 sorry, what do you mean? I'm hardly throwing my toys out of the pram

[@DenB_73]

Great insight again. The PB function in the sim is dramatic. Also jetways connect well at first, but when I go to Outside camera, it tends to be all over the place, Most of the time right through the cockpit. I've got the GSX update installed and that seems to be working better for now Also for PB

[@casaamaril]

You seem to have everything working well in MSFS 2024, it's a joy to behold and looks great, unlike all the negative comments I've seen in the last twoo weeks. But things seem to be looking up and I'll probably be installing my copy of the software within the next week or so, although MSFS 2020 hasn't lost its appeal.

[@paulm5025]

Great video, as always! Kudos to you for doing another review of this aircraft and also to Inibuilds for how they gave the feedback to you. The passenger window view of the landing was fabulous... mesmerising to see the detail of the wings and the control surfaces.

[@theoldar]

People have memory holed how buggy MSFS2020 was. MSFS2024 will be fine.

[@NookaNifty]

Excatly

[@Supercalle10]

Microsoft Flight Simulator have never had better default aircraft than what is available in 2024. I think given a bit of polish and stability this sim is going to be something truly special.

[@danowat4302]

All I know is, I am having the most fun I have ever had in a flight sim, and I have been simming since FS98!

[@Extremesmoltentom]

53:54 good to see the Gatwick - Queenstown EasyJet route in included in the sim. 😂

[@ryanking6811]

You should fly an approach into KASE one of these days

[@megabitegaming9655]

Can I just say it was a problem when I started and I've now had the most amazing experience the career mode has really drawn me in and congratulations on an honest review

[@nightflyer40]

Great vid!

[@Beeterfish]

Have you tried Fenix A320 in FS 2024? V1 rated it way better in FS 2024 than the ToliSS version in X-plane. Would be interesting to see your take on Fenix in FS 2024 as well.

[@simulacrae]

People forget how crap fs2020 was in the beginning, constant ctd’s, the planes were shit and they couldn’t even follow a flight plan without veering off in some other direction. FS2020 got good for real somewhere around mid 2023.

[@SteonCZ]

Exactly!

[@kingofleinster]

Did I just see the jet bridge connect to a glider ?

[@caesaragomez2135]

Saludos Into the Blue Simulations, como está. Queria saber como ves el estado actual del simulador, sobre todo como ves las fisicas de vuelo? que eso es lo que nos interesa a nosotros los Simmers. Thank you.

[@jhallock]

Wish I hadn't sold my Series X, 2024 would be fun on there in 3 months or so. 2020 until further notice for diehard airliner simmers.

[@ItsRobert1]

Get a pc You might find a deal today.

[@BloodSteyn]

Could you share your sensitivity settings for the benefit of make glorious MSFS?

[@kaeptnbaloo]

Can't here it anymore... It had / has SERVER problems... Not SIM problems...

[@joshuasmith7621]

Works perfectly fine for me since day 2. It was only on day 1 that I had issues with servers.

[@brandonchappell1535]

Still crashes an freezes a bit though. Lotsa bugs in career too. But servers do seem fixed

[@JackJohnson-cm6jk]

any chance to get a shorty on the curve settings you are using? Lovely Vid as usual. Miss your xplane content.

[@fear2218]

Are these the Flightbeam Auckland and Inibuilds Queenstown airports for 2020 running in 2024?

[@ivandiazpadilla9231]

Your tutorials are interesting. Could you share your joystick configuration with us? Thank you so much!

[@jesseordonez5088]

What is the add-on for the camera movement?

[@13nickh]

Do you have a specific profile for trackir5? I just got one and it's not nearly as smooth. Thanks!

[@finnmacdonald9542]

Why did you fly that loop around the valley? Irl they land straight off the rnav.

[@IntotheBlueSimulations]

Hi Finn, Indeed, I saw some vids where they land straight off the approach. I could be wrong, but I think that’s only applicable to the RNP (AR) Z approach though? As I mentioned during the video, I wanted to fly that approach, but it isn’t coded in the sim. The visual manoeuvre was entertaining and picturesque, at any rate. I hope that clarifies things a little. Do let me know if I’m wrong. All the best!

[@Envoy2207]

i have encountered camera slew downwards and hotas hot working

[@Nemura12]

It's not a big step up but an improvement. Thanks for the video.

[@damcopter]

Please, can you tell what is the state of Flight Models for GA aircraft? On MSFS 20, the only aircrraft I am able to decently enjoy is the A2A Comanche. I wonder if MSFS24 has improved on this topic. I will not buy it until I am convinced that 24 is not as arcadish as 2020. Thank you

[@matteolosardo]

I fly GA in real life and I'm pretty happy with the flight model honestly, I'd say its more matter of finding the right control curve in the settings

[@damcopter]

@matteolosardo thanks for you feedback. I am also a professional pilot and I am very dissapointed by MSFS20 compared to DCS for example. I agree with you on the curves to be tweaked but my complaints are about the "binary" behaviour of msfs20 FM. I really hope 24 has more depth on that matter. Unfortunately I will not talk about the helicopters (I am a Chinook pilot IRL)....because MSFS is nowhere near being able to simulate helos FM. And the CH47 is not modeled properly in terms of flight controls....

[@brandonchappell1535]

Its definitely improved, some defaults still arent amazing, mostly a more fluid floaty model though, an generally feels more alive, which is better than the rubberband fm in 2020. The cessna gets smashed around by pretty light winds (may be bug), and g58 and baron dont feel much different and now have bugs. I have no desire to go back, even with the bugs and crashes, some areas are huge visual upgrades.

[@damcopter]

@@brandonchappell1535 thanks for you feedback. I like the fact that you are mentioning the "floatiness" of the FM. This is definitely what is missing in MSF2020. I am glad that you seem to feel some floatiness in 24.

[@matteolosardo]

@@damcopter I've had reports coming from helicopter pilots that the flight model got improvement as well, so you might want to try that! I've never flown one irl, so I'm not qualified to have an opinion, the only thing I know is that in the sim I cannot keep them straight XD

[@blackbeardsghost6588]

Thank you (everyone) for making sure this sim is polished before I dive in. I'll probably purchase it in a year or so.

[@G_de_Coligny]

Let me stop you right here with the warm and fuzzy bullcr@p: YOU STILL CAN’T HAVE THE COPILOT TOPLESS.

[@brandonchappell1535]

Still waiting for the mod 😂

[@nawnaw4709]

That's not safe for flying 😂

[@G_de_Coligny]

@@brandonchappell1535 it’s one f the things that baffles me… This and the fact that in 2024 more than 30 years after the first War in Zee Gulf we still do not have a “Bagdad DCA by night” screen saver but meanwhile had a karaoke version of “afterdark”’s flying toaster ride of the Valkyries theme on MacOS…

[@speedbird8326]

You weren't wrong about FS 2024 in your first video. You were spot on. The truth is MSFS2024 is an utter bug-ridden disgrace. From the disastrous launch, when they should have known about server loads, to the hundreds and hundreds of bugs in the program. Airports missing terminals, entire airports missing, airborne jetways, aircraft with wings missing, avatars hanging upside down out of flying aircraft, blurry terrain, CTDs etc etc. It's pathetic and what's infuriating is Jorg's utter denial of that reality. They rushed it out and they knew it wasn't ready. It's going to take a full year before it's even close to fixed. If you're wondering who the beta testers are, it's the people who bought this joke of a program. I got a refund as I won't reward their incompetence.

[@burtleboeuf1429]

add to that flaps resetting themselves mid flight, zero fuel guages for no reason, audio loss, character getting trapped under the aircraft, contradictory notifications and I've barely played it on Game pass.

[@speedbird8326]

@@burtleboeuf1429 Yes I've seen those and many more, but I got too tired of typing !!!🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@elmar001]

Unfortunately for you your rant here is fact-free and full of lies. I have no doubt that you would lie about your own mother to try and advantage yourself.

[@Mud_AleX]

Asobo fell short for the project span... they should´ve stick with MSFS2020 and make an even more stunning product...

[@nilp2000]

FS2024 is great and bugs where expected. I do not agree with all the complaints from the click collecting youtube community.
