Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 launches today! #GossiAirways will be trying it.
The entire game is built around Azure and their AI services, with the whole planet streamed in live rather than a large local install - they call it a thin client.
So, strap in to find out if Microsoft face pies Azure marketing wise.

PS: it's been hung for 5 minutes at "Loading languages" for me, I have a feeling it's going to be *one of those* game launches.

Oh god. Reddit is people stuck at the same place as me, or a small number who got in and are posting images like this.
Safe to say MS Flight Simulator 2024 may be a legendary game launch, the servers appear to have collapsed.

The Power of The Cloud, with Azure! I'm 12% loaded after 50 minutes.

somebody thought using ChatGPT to explain the debug log in MSFS would work, lol https://www.reddit.com/r/flightsim/comments/1gv3tcf/investigating_the_issue_reportloadingtoml/

Best meme so far
The game has 34k viewers on Twitch and almost every streamer is stuck at the first loading screen.

The Azure marketing team tomorrow after the MSFS 2024 launch and mainstream news pick up on it

Well done to Microsoft for having Microsoft Defender detect Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 as malicious
-
the internet is having so much fun at least
-
good news, I'm at "9% VFS Activating packages" after almost two hours.
-
might leave my PC on overnight and see if I unlock this achievement
-
lol, the download stopped and I'm in a login queue now
-
After 4 hours I’m still not past the login queue (with the power of Azure) but I am enjoying all the images people are posting online.

Please wait a few what
Put some more hamsters in the wheel Microsoft

I paid €285 for the collectors edition and all I got are the online streams of a loading screen and broken gameplay. 🫡
they didn’t even bother to post the collectors edition yet. Admittedly I’m old enjoy that this shit is just hilarious. Feel bad for the devs obviously too, somebody is going to have the task of making this a soothing all green PowerPoint for Satya Nadella.

Well I checked back in the MS Flight Simulator 2024 Reddit, there’s zero critic reviews still as they haven’t been able to get the game to work, and the community content is as you’d expect.
MS put out a statement on launch day saying they’d fixed the issues 🤨

My fave video clip somebody posted so far.. the power of the cloud.
