What feature do you miss the most in MSFS 2024? Leave a comment! For me, it's Parallel42's contrail effects! And also, I miss being able to install custom soundpacks to default aircraft such as the B747-8.

Over the past few weeks, I’ve done some testing with MSFS 2024. Despite its numerous bugs, one aspect I truly appreciate about the new simulator is its significant performance improvements and smoother FPS. These enhancements ultimately made me change my mind, prompting me to switch to MSFS 2024 and transfer my aircraft and other add-ons to it.
Fortunately, the development version of the FlyByWire A380 operates almost flawlessly in MSFS 2024. This allowed me to carry out my next flight in the new simulator (although I must admit, the first few minutes were still recorded in MSFS 2020).
The only issue I encountered was that my MSFS 2020 store version of inibuilds Los Angeles Airport wouldn’t work properly, so I opted to fly to New Zealand instead.
>>> MSFS 2024: HOW TO remove ALL default traffic and use FSLTL instead <<<
MSFS 2024 currently has lots of default liveries (Boeing/Airbus house liveries) and outdated aircraft type (e.g. DC-10) flying around. I've also seen cargo aircraft docking at passenger gates. This breaks the immersion - but thankfully, this can be entirely turned off and replaced by FSLTL:
It has been widely reported that the FlyByWire A380's acceleration and climb rate is too powerful. I tested this and can definitely confirm that this is the case. Takeoff acceleration even under MTOW is too rapid, and climb rates of 4,000fpm and more under full payload are not realistic.
FlyByWire are already aware of the issue, but in the meantime, you can do the following to immediately get more realistic acceleration and climb rates:
1. Open the FBW A380 engines.cfg file. 2. Under the heading [TURBINEENGINEDATA], change 'static_thrust' from 80213 to 70000.
This reduces the A380's power by around 13% which in my view gives a realistic experience for the time being.
This hopefully will be no longer necessary once FlyByWire have fixed the issue.
Just installed MSFS 2024. I have to say, I'm not impressed. I have played MSFS 2020 for more than two years and know it very well. I expected something more intuitive and better looking. • Spawned into Frankfurt EDDF. • Only livery available for A330 is default Airbus livery. Would need to purchase other liveries (seriously??). • EDDF airport is default, looks worse than Asobo 2020 version. • Runway textures and taxiway textures don't look better. • Took me ages to figure out how to move into cockpit from "walking perspective". • Adjusting and setting new controls seems unintuitive. • Drone Lock and Follow mode is just as hard to use as in MSFS 2020. • Joystick axes of Airbus Thurstmaster Sidestick are not recognised (got that fixed now ...). • Several parts of Airbus Thrustmaster Throttles (flaps, speedbrake) are not recognised (not sure why, all plugged in). • Tobii 5 is not recognised. • Nvidia filters are not recognised. • Road traffic looks exactly as in MSFS 2020, cars are driving through each other. • Clouds look like in MSFS 2020, no significant improvement. • Air traffic still behaves erratically. Planes move through each other. Takeoffs look unrealistic. Planes randomly disappear. Planes jump up and down on the taxiway. Lots of default liveries. Some planes are stuck motionless in the sky. AI sound quality is not better than MSFS 2020. I thought they had fixed AI traffic - it does not look like it. • ATC sounds like in MSFS 2020 - unnatural voices. • 3D photogrammetry covers significant forest areas and mixes it with auto-generated trees - does not look good. Bridges near KJFK end in water. • Changing seasons does not change colour of fields (e.g. brown field turn into green field). It'll take years to fix all this. For the time being, MSFS 2024 is not playable at all for me. I'll stay with MSFS 2020 until there are major improvements.

2. Settings/General/Graphics/Global Rendering Quality: Turn 'Traffic Airport Quality' off.
3. Install FSLTL as usual.

Thank you all for voting. My next flight will be in the FBW A380 from Dubai to Los Angeles.
This will be done in MSFS 2020 as the aircraft is currently not compatible with MSFS 2024.

I had high hopes for MSFS 2024 and expected to be able to dump MSFS 2020 this week.
But MSFS 2024 is not ready. It needs a few months (or years?) to grow up.
For the time being, I'll stay with MSFS 2020.
