Yes I believe it continues but you lose live weather, traffic, and the scenery degrades. I think this has happened to me only once and in 2020. MSFS 2024.

Yes in 2020 happened also to me but for msfs 2024 i think is different because it's only an online game and an offline mode with crappy terrain doesn't exist

I launched a flight and then killed my wi-fi connection so there was no internet to my computer. The sim immediately displayed a big white block message on the right hand side that internet was lost and the game may become unstable, but it did continue to run.... for about 1 minute. Then I got a screen saying that MSFS requires a constant internet connection and the game would be paused until the connection was restored. Once I turned the wi-fi back on the game did indeed resume right where I was in active pause mode. So, I suppose the answer is no, if you lose internet you cannot play until it is restored, which kind of makes sense given the nature of the beast that 2024 is. That said, in the 198 hours I have played 2024 this has never happened but I suppose if someone has poor internet connectivity then this title may not be the best choice. MSFS 2024.

I have to say I do not fly streamed aircraft, I only fly third-party ones that are in my community folder. But even with my relatively weak internet -- 50 Mb -- in a house with 17 wi-fi devices connected I have not experienced any real issues. For me the benefits of streaming far, far outweigh the drawbacks. Note: I did have issues during the first two weeks after launch, but I have about 200 hours and the game has been rock solid since mid-December. MSFS 2024.

My internet was bad for an hour last week. Flying the A330 into Madrid at the time. Textures not showing, couldn't read anything in the aircraft. Just wasn't a pleasant experience.
February 17, 20251 yr Yea, I experienced this too sometimes when I flew the default planes and I have seen other references to people having parts of their plane missing or fading in and out. I do think it is better to have the aircraft downloaded and not streamed, an option I think is coming with SU1. But also just last night and today I have had blurry runways on landing, at KBUF and CYSH, something that has not happened since the first couple of weeks after release. MSFS 2024.

February 17, 20251 yr I believe one reason for the large size of MSFS2020 was that it did indeed have a fallback graphics mode for if your internet was unavailable. Now, however.. with MSFS2024, if you have no internet, you are simply SOL. It's not a huge showstopper for me, but I can understand if some people resonate with the cartoon below.
