November 15, 20241 yr I'll keep MS2024 vanilla until the following are 100% compatible, then I'll switch sims as long as there are no other significant issues. I can wait for scenery and other bits and bobs.

November 16, 20241 yr 2020 looks and flies so well for me right now so I am going to wait for a while. Otherwise, its to many things to add to an already burdened todo list.

November 16, 20241 yr I’ll probably just explore the new world using some of the new aircraft and wait for announcements of compatible addons. We’ll see how long I manage to stay addon free though 😀 Dave Current System (Running at 4k): ASUS ROG STRIX X670E-F, Ryzen 7800X3D, RTX 5090, 55" Samsung Q80T, 64GB DDR5 6000 RAM, EVGA CLC 280mm AIO Cooler, Brunner CLS-E NG Yoke, Thrustmaster Warthog HOTAS & Stick, Thrustmaster TCA Quadrant & Add-on, VirtualFly Ruddo+, TQ6+ and Yoko+, GoFlight MCP-PRO and EFIS, Skalarki FCU and MCDU

November 16, 20241 yr 1. Do nothing 2. Launch MSFS 2020 3. Complete long haul with my 777 while reading the forums to see what has transpired with the launch and what others are experiencing (Big fan of watch and see with all of my current add-ons in MSFS 2020 working as well as they are right now. ) 4. Purchase and install vanilla MSFS after the flurry of activity calms and probably let it sit until I confirm certain add-ons are working seamlessly. (Spad.next, FSUIPC, Simconnect, OI4FS for my opencockpits HW drivers, ASFS, FSHUD, AIG etc) No need for "me" to start testing these in FS24 until they are confirmed working otherwise I wont have a true baseline on what is/isn't working, performance impacts of each add-on and what could be an add-on issue vs core sim issue. I do tend to be pretty methodical in how I approach things though. I guess it comes from both my job and my "other" hobby where we never try to change too much at once.

November 16, 20241 yr Like others, I'll keep MSFS2024 clean while exploring the new features and interfaces. Once I'm confident with that, I'll start considering add-ons. My priority there is the JF Vulcan. Surely not everybody was kung fu fighting. https://rationalwiki.org
November 16, 20241 yr Nothing. Absolutely nothing is essential for me, all nice-to-have stuff that I can easily live without as I enjoy all the new stuff, try the new features and functions, mess around and as the days and weeks pass, more and more addons will become available.

Same here. Already plenty of stuff to try and planes to fly, will gradually wait for addons to be compatible afterwards. Dont want to mess it up at first day of launch. FS2020 will still be running on my pc, so can always launch it if I want to fly addon aircraft while I wait for 2024 compatibility. First ones anyway, will be probably Navigraph and littlenavmap, the others can wait. And controllers setup!

As I've stated previously, I will have greater demands on my finances and time than buying and using a new sim. So, I'll have the self-enforced luxury of waiting until the initial bedding-in period has occurred, and initial bugs identified and hopefully fixed before using a vanilla 2024. After that, I'll see what I can remove from it (fingers crossed for no more 'Aviators liveries' and a UI that allows for simple removal of unwanted liveries without manual editing and deletion of files🤞), followed by gradually installing compatible products. Could take some time, but no rush.

November 17, 20241 yr None of the repondants here have mentioned the elephant in the room, being the lengthy configuration setup time required to start up the very first flight. If you don't fly with just keyboard and mouse, you must have controller hardware, like throttle and flightstick minimum. Since Asobo did not create a 'controllers config transfer program' (between 2020 and 2024) I know I'll be busy for at least 2 hours doing all that necessary stuff myself manually. But It will certainly be worth it ! Just be prepared :) Edited November 17, 20241 yr by Eclex Dave Swigert WIN 11 i9-14900KF 64 GB ram Viewsonic 32" 60Hz 2K monitor NVIDIA MSI RTX 4080S Asrock Z790
