Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024, a brand new installment of the flight simulation series that Microsoft launched Xbox Series X|S and Windows PCs yesterday, has been experiencing a shaky take-off with long loading times, missing content, and other problems because developer Asobo Studios had “completely underestimated” how many individuals can be logging into the sport on day one, in response to a brand new video that the corporate shared today. Critics, including those on the official Flight Simulator forums, have vented their frustration, with one questioning why the sport’s server load test only involved 200K simulated users—a number that is claimed to equate to lower than 2% of the 2020 installment’s user base. Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 has a Mostly Negative rating on Steam on the time of this posting, with ~3.7K reviews having been published.
…we encountered a problem with one in every of our services handling the brand new systems in the sport like profession mode and various missions. The server answerable for handling data requests got overloaded, causing delays and errors.
In consequence, players are experiencing long loading times and missing content like aircraft. We now have solved the problems and are actually bringing players in at a gentle pace. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your patience. We are going to keep you updated on our social channels, forums, and website. Thanks very much for all of your feedback and support.
