Can't get inverted up and and down to work in external view... I've done exactly as I did for cockpit view (just remap up and down in controller camera settings) but it just won't work.
Can't play like this, every time I need to do some quick maneuvering above water or close to buildings my brain farts and I go crashing.
 
So, unless I use the Series X controller, not my Elite, I can't take a screenshot? Every time I press the Xbox button the four square menu also comes up.
 
Those world updates aren't small. My village layout is correct so will be interesting to see if everything else is once its finished updating.

It took the screenshot before those boxes appeared. You will be all good. I am using the Elite 2 and use the guide button and it happens to me too, but it's always the proper shot.

Did the basic control training last night. Should I learn how to take off and land and then move on to the real game or just go ahead and get in on it? TBH the trainings are BORING.

Also, man the controls on an Xbox controller suck lol.
 
So if you are playing it off GamePass what all should I install thats free and is there anything that is a must buy?

Im going to try this out tonight after work.

I just downloaded the updates for the US and Japan, gonna try them out first and see if my interest continues.

I lol’d when I flew out of the nearest airport and eventually found my house through large landmarks, that was great

Why can't you download the world updates when the console is off? What's the game downloading the updates to?

Even on PC the updates are kind of a nightmare. You first have to run the MS Store app, download a patch there, then run MSFS and download another patch. Finally you go into the marketplace for world updates, as those are actually treated like DLC "purchases" even though they are obviously free and part of the game.

I pretty much sat there all night getting the PC version updated. Didn't even get a chance to fire up the Xbox version.

On the Xbox it just downloaded right in the game menu.
