Future of MSFS 2020

[berkkp]

Since it seems the A340 and future sceneries are MSFS2024 only, will there be no more releases for 2020? Many people, I think even the majority still play MSFS'20, and would have wished for planes like the A340 to come out for '20.

Hello,

iniBuilds sceneries will only be for FS2024 going forward, yes. As for aircraft in general, this is not a definitive decision, however, for the A340, yes - 2024 only. 

Thank you

It is a shame, because when MSFS2024 performs well it’s amazing and so much better than 2020 for the flight dynamics alone. Trouble is it’s like gambling every day to see what performance you get. 
If Asobo manage to sort out the issues plaguing SU3 before release then great! If they don’t and they release it in its current form then I will be shelving MSFS2024 for at least a year because I have been in all the betas since launch and 9 months later the sim is still a blurry mess and now they have introduced a stuttery mess with consistent 1-2 second freezes every 10 seconds. (If using default/third party Airliners or complex GA aircraft) The textures of where ever you are looking will load up, then disappear and slowly reload in a complete cycle. It’s bad when you’re trying to take off and because the rendered runway textures disappear the ground becomes uneven and will either bounce you up or crash because of a massive pot hole or trench. 
all this is with default sceneries and planes. If you add third party content to the mix, it then becomes much worse. At the moment MSFS2024 is a PowerPoint presentation of what it should be unfortunately.

This is EXTREMELY well said. Asobo/MS need to step up, own it, and fix it.
