MSFS Not Going Well so Far

Featured Replies

For starters, I am missing all of the premiums deluxe airports and aircraft. I can't even get a plane off the ground, and my controls do nothing. I don't see how to calibrate my joystick although it says it is set to Madcatz default. I can't even release the parking brake, as I don't understand what the "num delete" key is. I am extremely frustrated. Did they seriously change all of the keyboard commands we have been using for years?

Cheers, Pete

This is the Del key on the numpad. It is usually shared with the numpad period key. You'll need Num Lock disabled.

According to the official forums, this is a known issue and they're looking into it at the moment.

Did you purchase the software through Steam?

FS2020 

Alienware Aurora R11 10th Gen Intel Core i7 10700F - Windows 11 Home 32GB Ram
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti Super OC 16GB - Pimax Crystal Light VR 

I knew there was a reason I hadn't posted here in over a year. Thankfully, 'Kapitan' has reminded me why.

This forum used to be like minded people discussing and helping and debating. There were no 'word not allowed gamer flame wars' like many forums I can name. Shame really......

"Rushed" is the word that comes to mind, I got access yesterday for the first time and was very disappointed to immediately notice bugs and issues.

The game seems nice though, a significant improvement over X-Plane, but far from perfect.

I need a better PC spec to be able to run it on good graphics though.

I am trying to be better than that but I have had enough of the folks who think they are "helping" by providing responses such as the one above. It is completely unhelpful and not necessary.
