    MSFS 2024 on Xbox Series X is seriously unoptimized — support just tells me to wait


    Hey everyone,

    I’ve been trying to enjoy Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 on my Xbox Series X, but the performance is just awful — constant stuttering, frame pacing issues, and severe terrain streaming lag that makes the game borderline unplayable.

    I reached out to Xbox support and MSFS support multiple times. Their response? Basically, “wait for a software update.” No timeline, no details, just vague promises.

    I pushed back hard, demanding clear answers and a timeline, pointing out that MSFS 2020 ran way better on the same hardware. Support acknowledged the complaints but still gave no solid roadmap or interim fixes.

    Honestly, it feels like Xbox Series X users are being ignored or treated as a second-tier platform for MSFS 2024. If you’re on Series X and frustrated by this, you’re not alone.

    Would love to hear if others have had similar issues or any tips to improve performance in the meantime.

    My msfs 2020 won't launch.

    You got msfs 2020 now, you should just wait as 2024 is coming out very soon, also all content should be transferred to 2024, so worst case u still have everything.

    MSFS 2024 Update.

    ok. try these other steps.

    Uninstall and reinstall the game:

    Uninstall MSFS 2024 completely.

    Reinstall the game.

    7. Try to fix the installation file:

    On Steam, you can try to "fix" or "restore" the game's installation file, if available.

    8. Check if MSFS 2024 is installed on the external hard drive:

    can i get a quick start or operators manual for msfs2024?

    Hi Elliot,

    Are you referring to MSFS 2020? The exact release date for MSFS 2024 hasn’t been confirmed yet. All we know is that it’s planned for release sometime this year, and there may be more info at the games showcase in a couple of days.

    Is there anything specific in the game that you’re looking for help with? The aircraft manuals offer some guidance.

    If the newer game is indeed the one you’re enquiring about, refer to the Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 FAQ

    If you still have any questions or feedback about this, it would be best to ask on the official MSFS Community Forums or contact MSFS Support directly. You can submit a request at https://flightsimulator.zendesk.com/hc/requests/new - select the 2024 game version in the list.

    Hope this helps.
