**** Official Microsoft Flight Simulator Thread ****

Went for the Game Pass option as it's cheapest and will judge afterwards if I want to plump up money.

I've has a right time with trying to install this tonight. PC hasn't had windows updates in an age, which prevented Game Pass installing. Updated and BSOD all over the place. Reinstalled OS and then I was getting weird Xbox Game Pass crashes and then mfplat.dll missing errors. Sorted it by installing windows media pack.

Way too late now, so left it downloading the 91GB.

Am concerned how my 4470K, 16GB RAM and 980ti will run this at 4K, i'm going to have to drop the resolution, but I just hate running at non native resolutions. I can see it being a slideshow!
 
Just started downloading this got the £1 game pass offer, will be running on high clocked 5700xt on 1440p monitor

Searched to see what FPS cards are getting but can't find anything guess it's because its just released
 
Damn... I've read all the comments and I've tested it some more... I think it's gotta be my CPU that's the problem?

My PC is stuttering far too much on 1440P at Lowest Settings - CPU getting maxxed out :p

I think I gotta face facts... I gotta do some upgrading... My wallet does not abide.
 
Apologies if this has been answered before.

Microsoft have said that those with the basic version will be able to upgrade to include the deluxe content at a later date. Does the game currently give this option and, if so, can individual aircraft be bought or just packs?
 
Tried flying from Manston to Dover, over estimated the landing, over stressed the aircraft and it ended, not the best first flight! What button is it to get the photo mode where the plane stays still?
 
Anyone downloading via steam? I install the 500mb by steam then goes to the sim but nothing happens on this screen?

Did you do anything different on that first screenshot because I have the same or do you just leave it running like that ? There's no indication anything is downloading.
 
my preload on GP didn't do anything over night, had to uninstall the 1GB and start again, then it downloaded a digital licence and started the install

Once you get into the game installer menu its a long haul from there. I am on 350+ connection and its managed 2GB in last 10 odd minutes.

Be interested to see how my system does once its ready though :)

Right back to bed lol

I went to the Microsoft website and logged out and reinstalled the steam download.
