    I refuse to wait in a queue to play a game. What a load of nonsense. If this continues I'll be asking for a refund.

  • So they underestimated the initial day(s) load.. all the issues are due to one of the MSFS services and associated server-side cache. They did load tests with 200,000 concurrent users but actual relea

  • My god would you people stop it. So inappropriate 

Jorg. Body language and expressions. He is clearly not pleased from what is seen.  Actually appreciate seeing that in light of what has taken place.

Yeah they're honest about it at least.

Transparency and honesty is the only way to fix a bad situation.

So they underestimated the initial day(s) load.. all the issues are due to one of the MSFS services and associated server-side cache. They did load tests with 200,000 concurrent users but actual release day was much more. Frankly they should have known it'd be way way more than that?

But I like the honest and transparent report.. hopefully they'll keep doing more of these.

So does the Queue screen now work and we should wait or is it still borked?

Honesty is one thing.... They are relying so heavily on cloud based content..  Not so sure this is a recipe for success.  Certainly not off to a good start in that regard.

200K concurrent users. They should have staggered the release. May not have stopped the problem, but it would have helped.

Is all going well according to them and their partners.

yaaaa alllrighhhttt

Don’t get out of the sim or you’ll be waiting in line again.

 

just a friendly heads up

Too late. I got out because I only had 9 airplane no aviator content. I unistalled and reinstalled MSFS2024 and since 12PM  getting "too many users are trying to connect..."

Yeah, nothing is truly fixed. They put a gatekeeping bandaid on server entry and its not helping noticeably at all.

It doesn't really sound like a "cloud" issue - it sounds like things are bottlenecking through a critical server-side check, that check process' cache has completely overflowed and melted down, and they're scrambling to scale it up for more people.
