November 23, 20241 yr I'm not switching to 2024 until: There is Option to start free flight in the cockpit cold and dark, no requirement to walk around and do things first. There is ability to download specific aircraft and scenery to my computer. Ability to disable marketplace items such as custom scenery, addon airports, aircraft.. Issues with community folder location are fixed. ALL server and streaming problems are fixed, and EVERYTHING loads completely and quickly. Maybe a month?

I doubt if any of that is going to be fixed in a month.

November 23, 20241 yr For most of the top irritants I doubt we will see significant progress in at least 1 year. This is based on the average lead time to deal with bugs in msfs 2020, the amount of issues introduced in 2024 (and some are not glitches but actually design decisions) and the habit of creating new ones when solving another.

On the world map pick a spot that is not a parking spot (I.e. not a white dot). You’ll spawn out or in cockpit, cold and dark, without any preflight items required. The second and third on your list will probably come when the market place opens. Servers are getting better each day since launch. I don’t know what community folder issue is… But, there you go see you in 2024 soon! 😘 Edited November 23, 20241 yr by Los

This wish is already fulfilled. Walkarounds are done when the airplane is started on the parking lot or terminal, and you sit in the running cockpit with running engines when you start on a runway. 🙂
November 23, 20241 yr I've just had the most spectacular flight in the PMDG738 and I asked myself the question... why would I bother replacing this with 2024 in it's current state? I'm with the OP, I'm happy to move across to 2024, but it needs to be sorted. I don't need to experience all the angst and headaches of things not working and bugs and issues everywhere. Life is too short! In the meantime, I wish those who have moved to 2024 all the very best, I hope things continue to improve. Once they have, then maybe I'll join you.

November 23, 20241 yr I said in a thread a couple months ago that I planned to wait at least 3 months before buying FS2024. Based on what I'm seeing in this forum the launch is even worse than I thought it would be so now I'm thinking more like 6 months. Just not worth the hassle when FS2020 is perectly flyable and still impressive.

November 23, 20241 yr My plan before the release is still sound, enjoy the new features of 2024 until PMDG 738 and Comanche 100% compatible, then leave 2020. FS2024 • PMDG 738, 77F • FSL A321 • A2A Comanche, Aerostar • BS Baron, Bonanza, Caravan Pro • JF Tomahawk • TAOG H500C BeyondATC • GSX Pro • ChasePlane & Flow Pro • TDS GTNXi • FSUIPC • AutoFPS • RealTurb 9800X3D B650E • ROG OC RTX 5090 • 64GB DDR5-6000 • VKB Gladiator, STECS, T-Rudder • Tobii 5 • ISP 1 Gbps
November 23, 20241 yr I want to buy it but I'm getting conflicting reports of what works and what doesn't

I had a similar plan, but the flight model alone convinced me to take the plunge and uninstall 2020. I’ll just grow with it! Consider it an adventure. Edited November 23, 20241 yr by Los

It always starts me inside. It's what I choose to do. There is no marketplace nor its associated content manager. There will be soon. Ever since 2024 came out, I haven't missed 2020 and haven't flown it. I'm in the minority, and the reviews on Steam prove that. I'm very happy about the whole thing. 5800X3D, RTX4070, 600 Watt, one or two 1440p 32" screens, 64 GB RAM, 4 TB PCle 3 NVMe, Warthog throttle, VKB NXT EVO stick, Honeycomb Alpha yoke, CH quad, 3 Logitech panels, 2 StreamDecks, Desktop Aviator Trim Panel.
