   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.

     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.

     Well done to Microsoft for having Microsoft Defender detect Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 as malicious

     @GossiTheDog you should check and make sure it’s not installing Windows Server 2025!

     @GossiTheDog I am quite enjoying Flight Simulator 2024, doubly so because I didn't even need to purchase it to be entertained by it.

     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 🤨🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
