Is anyone else still stuck on 97%?

Featured Replies

Sorry to add to the many threads, but is anyone still getting stuck on 97%? 

I uninstalled it from the Windows Store and tried again, but thirty minutes later, it still sits on 97%.

I'm based in the south of the UK. 

 

Never seen it get further than that. MS really need to sort their act out, absolutely ridiculous and unacceptable.

It looks like they have shifted people who have already installed the game to a different farm from those still trying to install. Yesterday i think everyone hit the same farm.

Thanks both. I saw quite a few posts of people playing it now and assumed I was one of the few left with an issue. 

I'll go back to 2020 for a bit and revisit at the weekend.

If you have access to a VPN some are connecting to the US and it loads the sim up.

You may be right. I have 0 issues starting 2024 every single time. I keep closing and retrying. It works consistently to boot up faster than 2020 did.

EDIT: I'm using the Store version, not Steam.

And I am using Steam. So they definitely changed some things from yesterday in this regard.

Thanks for this. Just tried, and I’m in.

Store edition, Aviators.

By stopwatch on my wrist:

0 click play

30 seconds Xbox logo

1 minute 12% loaded

2 minutes 17% loaded

2 and half minutes ready to play

Is repeatable. Every time. give or take a few seconds.

Yep, gave up last night and just tried again today and it loads (reasonably quickly) to 97% and then just sits there and doesn't go any further. Also in the UK.
