Are you in the UK were most of the server issues have been reported?

I am in the southeast of the US. 100 Mbs cable internet and have so issues.

My location tag says Florida.

I would suggest a internet test and check the latency of your connection, something like speedtest.net. Internet speed is important but not as much as latency speed (connection to a server) well MSFS servers needs to work properly too.

My speeds and latency are spot on. They just suck when it comes to 2024.

Nice well the problem is certainly not on your end. Its an issue with server base reliant software like MS2024 in which is what I expected. Not the users fault at all in your circumstance. That is why I choose to stay with 2020 for now and my connection speed is the same as yours.

I had not noticed.

I am in Tampa, have lesser internet connection and I have had no issues. MSFS 2024 looks and works great on my end.

The only issue I have encountered was on day one when after install and flying around a bit I logged off to finish my work day and when I tried reconnecting I got the in queue message.

But the next morning everything was fine again.

So, it is odd behavior.

I'm thinking it's MS Server issues. All depends on the path it takes, time of day, alignment of the planet, etc, hahahaha

The mountain is still in the cloud and I’m not talking about mountain tops obscured by clouds.

As the sim settles in we can have excuses about the servers not being ready for release but in a few weeks if this is not fixed what will be the excuse then?  Likely it will turn to frustration, then realization, then resentment.

Don’t worry the usual apologists will flood those threads and convince you that they are right and your eyes are lying lol.

Local SSD/NVMe storage is relatively cheap these days and it makes no sense to be so dependent on high capacity remote servers and very fast bandwidth for the sim to work acceptably.  The day MSFS2024 was announced as being mostly cloud based with a minimal local storage footprint I was very concerned at how it would all playout.  Regretably it seems those early concerns have turned out to be well justified.

A moot point for all those playing on Xbox consoles under game pass....

 

Like it or not... that's where the sales are and none of that crowd care about cheap PC storage.

 Well I guess that is the rub isn't it?  What might be called the traditional flight sim enthusiast who has progressed through past iterations of the genre and along the way upgraded their PC hardware every 5 years or so  is being left behind.  In order to get the resources of Microsoft back in to flight simming we made this faustian bargain that whatever was developed it had to work on Xbox.  Maybe the way this is going to work out is those who are able to get the thin client model work well can enjoy the the new features that come with MSFS 2024 (after the bugs are ironed out) for the rest of us there is MSFS2020.

I was sceptical about streaming the whole sim before launch. Now I actually love it. Im maybe lucky but I haven’t had any streaming issues with 2024. In 2020 I had streaming issues for 4 years!! I was one of them that had too disable PG. Now im running PG in 2024 with no issues super sharp. Im so happy that I now have a whole world full of PG that I never seen before, for 4 years:)

So 2024 kinda fixed my streaming issues:)

Your mountains look like my mountains when I have Dynamic set (Graphics options) and the desired FPS is set higher than your system can deliver.  It appears the sim reduces TLOD when the FPS falls below the target you set.

I did a bunch of test cases yesterday in the A2A Comanche at 10,000' / 165 kts over the San Diego mountains.  Setting the dynamic target to 20 gave me beautiful detailed mountains with a Dev Mode frame rate of 25.

Setting the target FPS to 25 showed considerable loss of distant detail/resolution.  Setting the target to 30 made the mountains look like the ones in your image.

I just leave my dynamic target at 20 and consistently see a Frame Gen rate of 40 to 45.

I've experimented with this.  This photo was with Dynamic set to OFF

Do you have a stat to prove this? In one live stream a few moths back MS claimed the user base was 60/40 based on PC.

As if the XBox crowd were happy about this release and its "new tech"... take a look at the official (though censored) forum.

And how much they invested into their servers.  If the summers anything to go by, not much 

Inexcusable. They will and have to let us by choice download all world tiles!!! We wait for this.
