I should have known better

So, I stuck my head into 2024 to see what was up and tried a flight around PNG. Got 8, yes 8 FPS in VR where I get around 30 to 40 in 2020. Seriously messed up. Sad thing is I think it's going to get worse before it gets batter as they scramble to get it working correctly (fix something, break something else). Makes me wonder if they are scimping back on the quality of the help. BTW, I am running a Ryzen 7800 x3D with a rtx 4080 super and 64 gigs of ram, in case you are wondering.

Thanks, Lou. Following. PNG is the main area I fly in MSFS 2020 lately. I am tempted to use 2024 but reports like this put me on the waiting list.
 
Am sticking with FS2020 for a while, until I build a new PC that once I figure what 2024 needs to run smooth VR. I am completely happy with 2020 at the moment.
 
After today's debacle and a supposed update, I asked Microsoft for a full refund. I explained the over 85% of the time shown as "using" the game has been me trying to get it to work. I heard others have failed as they were told that they had "used" the game too much for a refund so I'm sure I'm in for a hard time here. I've been flight simming for what seems ages now and I never thought this situation would arise but I believe I have given this a very fair shot. I have no faith that anything will improve (especially in VR) after today's update addressed no VR issues. I think Asobo is under a lot of duress for various reasons and can't even get out of their own way at this point. We'll see if I can get the refund but am going to think of other options to take if they refuse.

I ditched 2024 for different reasons. Mainly being the shabby controller assignments in the settings, the issues with the marketplace and the library and other stuff. The issues after updates come to mind. You should also be able to install the stuff that is important to you on your machine, but they chose streaming.

They could have just implemented the graphic improvements in 2020, but noooo.

Happy with 2020!

I heard about a new investor in Asobo that mucked things up there and is mostly responsible for this mess. Not corroborated yet though so take it with a grain of salt right now.

Something's definitely funky! I get dramatically smoother VR frame rates on 2024 than 2020.

People bitch about the Xbox, but the funkiness of different PC configurations totally making performance horribad is the worst part about PC gaming.
