A soup.
I like the idea that people use “up to” because in theory, there is a finite chance that anything could happen due to the quantum nature of particles/waves.
It’s within the realm of mathematical feasibility that several electrons could be activated beyond their normal activation energy, causing an overall effect of the processor speeding up. Therefore they should say “up to 3e10x2 faster”. I wonder how that will hold up in court.
I used to work in HR at one of the largest employers in my country. Layoffs, work force adjustments, rescinding of telework, negative things in general are purposefully picked to be given on Fridays or before holidays.
The theory is that by doing so, you minimize risk to the company. If they commit suicide, they do so on the weekend or during the holidays, off of work time and not close enough that a judge would deem it on work time.
Secondly, weekends or just before the holidays supposedly allows employees to seek out support to potentially avoid a risk to the company (like I mentioned above).
Thirdly, weekends or just before the holidays allows a period of time for supposed emotional cooling, which lowers risks to the company of the employee sabotaging their work, undermining anything, or creating security incidents.
Kind of ironic here, considering you’re trying to personally insult me and bring this exact rhetoric you’re complaining about. You’re all over this thread talking about Reddit. It seems like you miss that site. You can still go back to it, it’s not too late! Hope your day is as pleasant as you are buddy.
Nope, just been keeping up with the MFS2024 forums, where tons of community content has issues rendering and systems not working. Technically being able to load content but not have it work the same way or in a usable manner doesn’t seem like real “backwards compatibility” but go ahead and take Microsoft’s word. We both know they’re good for it! 🤣
I had this exact same problem with the last MSFS. I bought it 4 months ago and never could download the content. The game crashed something like 5 times before I was able to actually get the loading screen to open. Then it was off to the races downloading 150gb of content from M$ servers at a blazing 320kbps.
Figured I’d cut my losses and refunded before my 2 hour window so I could use that money to purchase an actual flight simulator (XPlane 12)
Remake and rebuy everything of course. Did you expect backwards compatibility? Where’s the money in that?
Edit: have a look at people in the game forums unable to have their community content (especially planes) not working in 2024, or only partially working (mismatched textures, missing liveries, flight model glitches). As of right now, there are lots of compatibility issues.
XPlane is fantastic but I play in VR and that is where XPlane downright sucks. XPlane is bound to single core performance on a cpu. It doesn’t matter how good your graphics card is because if you play in vr, your frame rate is capped at single core performance so it is absolutely unplayable (with ASW enabled and all graphics set to low).
For VR, Aerofly FS4 is phenomenal. But the tradeoff there is that Aerofly doesn’t have weather or live ATC. Aerofly actually uses a similar technology as Microsoft (if you enable global coverage). The difference here is that they don’t have access to high resolution orthographic scenery so it’s pretty low res. Performance though is absolutely unbeatable. The full simulator can be run on an iPhone or a Nintendo switch.
Oh no I guess this is where you’re a bit mistaken because 2020 was the same garbage. I bought 2020 4 months ago and I had the exact problems people today are having with 2024. The technology behind how they handle scenery is the exact same unfortunately. Hence why I refunded it before my 2 hour refund window.
This is so true. Release half baked game and have the players pick up the slack with mods.
“Be the game”.
