Microsoft Flight Simulator is long and boring But it’s just really relaxing, flying planes. This is a very good game to calm down too, seeing the sights, especially with discovery flights. Any series x players or pc players, give it a try next time you rage at Warzone https://t.co/9I3UOzh05k

@MSFSofficial Load progress and continue because I am unable to access the top menu bar. This is on the Xbox Series X. Please fix so the menu bar appears as soon a progress is loaded from a save. Thanks.

@MSFSofficial Hey guys, I have spotted another issue. I have Saved a flight I just done (when taxi and parked and switched plane off) and when resuming after loading and wanting to resume there is no menu bar at the top of screen. I just can't get it to show, gone, no where to be seen.

@MSFSofficial The last hotfix is an absolute mess... I tried to make a flight from Madrid to Ibiza two times and 2 CTDs... The first one in cold start, after contacting with ground services while speaking. The 2nd one while navigating on main menu. I wont play until they fix this piece of s**t

@GiftedGimp @Bomberherald @MSFSofficial @Xbox Just had a drop in frames going into Leeds Bradford airport, wonder if it's the weather that's causing it as it was pretty cloudy and overcast as I dropped in Altitude, once below the clouds the frame issue stopped.

@Bomberherald @MSFSofficial @Xbox Wonder of it was a server issue, being THAT bad. As said on a DF interview with devs the ****pit, the game hud and overlays are basically a web browser that streams data, along with the world streaming in from servers.

@MrGarry2u @MSFSofficial @Xbox The Xbox version is the PC version. There's always going to be little hiccups. In 190 hours on the game this is the first issue that I can't pin on my settings 🤷‍♂️

@MSFSofficial Seriously @MSFSofficial @MSFS_Support Where can I submit issues... the game worked fine on PC before this "xbox" update, and your hot fix did nothing. I've spent over 200 bucks on in game add-ons, I want my sim back, working on PC.

@MSFSofficial Good morning! I need some help remapping the default cursor stick on Xbox from the Left Stick to the Right Stick. I cannot find the setting. I play with my sticks reversed which causes an issue with the cursor when I toggle it. My head and the cursor move together.

Only in Microsoft Flight Simulator when dealing with insane levels of bugginess does one want to plow an airplane into whatever surface is below. @AsoboStudio The hot fix *sort of* worked. Not as many CTDs but major issues with cameras and loss of aircraft control. 1/2

@PaulRoo80 @MSFS_Support @MSFSofficial Anyway. Back to the topic I created. The issue to be able to delete flight plans and saved flights is needed on console. We need to be able to remove these when no longer required. I hope the PC issues get addressed for the PC player.

@PaulRoo80 @MSFS_Support @MSFSofficial PC to them is an after thought. Sure that's down to player base being mostly console I get that. Where Flight Sim has always been PC and not console. However, still not sure why it would be sabotaged to suit console. PCs are usually left to run as high as ones machine will allow

Is Microsoft Flight Simulator down right now?
