  • Same here. Used to be seconds before 2024 was released.

  • I recall that this was a complaint in the early days of MSFS20 that Asobo addressed in one of their updates which did, in fact, cure it.  It would seem to be back; a punishment to the '2024' heretics.

  • They've got top men on it. Top. Men.

...well Glad it's not just me. Off Topic...I see someone has given up on PMDG DC6. 😉

The sad part is that some people are probably doing clean re-install, thinking something went wrong with the software.  That's an all day event in addition to all the add-ons, and the headache of re-configuring your controllers' profiles if they did not save. I would say at least a week worth of work.  I mean, I use MSFS because there is no other choice but I have always said Asobo is a comprehensive disaster.

I see a pattern here. Last time it was wide spread was also on a Saturday evening (Europe time). This is when I guess the number of users trying to load the sim is higher than usual.

This is really getting tiring. It should just not happen.

Who wants to go to the office on a weekend to fix MSFS?

Monday morning, they'll have their coffee while they talk about their weekend events. By the time they're done, it's time for lunch. They'll get back from lunch  early (2pm) and then prepare for an office meeting. They'll get to it on Tuesday, fixed by Wed. 

No discussions about 2024 issues, that's a whole different animal.

To be fair, people should be assessing the situation a bit more carefully before reinstalling the entire simulator. That problem is definitely on the end user.

Seems like the developers couldn't grab their a** with a hand full of fish hooks!  There is NO EXCUSE for this happening at this point with MSFS2020. 

Someone made a change and then went on vacation!

Server reboot, that was all, problem solved. Way too many simmers crashed the server. Well done. 
 

Welcome back 2024 simmers!
