YOU Be the Judge - MSFS 2024 vs 2020

[@BerndSchmitt-Martinique]

Hi Mr. Tripleseven ... what a nice idea !

[@AakashKalaria]

I could tell in all the cases Except for hong kong, within 2-5 seconds because of colors mostly, also I could make out lighting differences reasonable well. BUT I am CG lighting artist, so I have an eye for it. I love how 2024 looks in general, but other aspects of the game are so bad. -_- It's difficult to not to get angry at Asobo even for simple thing like UI design and layout.

Interesting observation. The Hong Kong City segment may have muddied the comparison. It uses a 2020's payware scenery, which surely has carried its own photogrammetry and terrain texture etc. The UI design? Well, I suspect it’s been compromised to accommodate the Xbox.

Hello, Merci for this good comparison, and yes thats not so evident to be sure 100% which one is 20 or 24. Anyway they make some changment we liked have on 20 😁. Did you made your choice and flight on 24 now ?

[@discman777]

Right, some new visuals are not easily discernable across the board. To me, they are mostly positive. The 2024’s high bandwidth requirement also turns out not to be an issue for me. In fact, 24 performs better than 2020 with photogrammetry enabled in many instances. On the other hand, there’re still incompatibility cases with some payware and freeware.
