Wait, what? I distinctly recall that the 2020 version was supposed to be a 10 year game…
I’m guessing that it will be supported for 10 years. As what it is currently. While MSFS2024 will be more a game then 2020 is. With aviation career mode and gaming focused activities.
A bit weird since they said they’ll be supporting the current iteration till 2030.
Just because they are releasing this one doesn’t mean that 2020 will stop being supported. Have they said anything about ending support for it?
Maybe they meant keep the azure cloud servers running for 10 years.
God damn was that a good trailer.
I put a 1000h into MSFS2020, surely I can reach a 1000h more on this one!
Feel free to post screenshots of your game when it drops in !flightsim@lemmyfly.org
First one didn’t really appeal to me too much, but this update with “missions” and different things to do looks like I might have to grab it!
Not a fan of this decision. Considering they said in MSFS2020 that they planned to support the game for a decade, it seems very premature to release a new game like this, especially since it seems like very little has changed in the engine to warrant an upgrade to a new product.
I’m assuming this is going the Train Sim World route where everything gets brought forward into the next version, but there are exclusive features locked to 2024. Not a big deal if there will be a substantial discount for previous owners, but I think we all know what Asobo is going to decide.
I don’t think Asobo controls the decision here, but rather Microsoft. The same company that looked at free services provided by Google and Facebook and said “Hey, we can do data collection too!”. Now, Microsoft is the main company that makes you pay for them to steal your personal data so they can fatten their profits.
I’m pretty upset that this isn’t just an update, but a new game. with all the DLC and mods in the old one and this game taking up over 500GB of storage. installing both is gonna be a real pain.
Is there a word to describe cumming in your pants, but in your brain? Cuz I just did that. My god that looks awesome and can’t wait.

This can’t be real. Are they seriously doing this?
“the sky is calling…” for your wallet
They are going to make flight simulator just as expensive as flying in real life!
Pretty sick how theres some legit things to do now instead of kinda just piss around flying
Holy smokes!
I know it is unrelated, but when I saw that ship in the scene with the oil rig, I suddenly wanted a new ship simulation game.
This does look fun, I would like to try fighting fires.
I only played the first during my trial of gamepass. I enjoyed it, but it hasn’t gotten a sale that made me jump on it.
This was beautiful as usual
I love that they actually focused on things to do rather than just flying around realistically. Missions like firefighting, search and rescue, construction and more adds much needed gamification to flight sim!
Wow, looks great!
