So I wanted to give #msfs2024 another try. I successfully created xbox live account beforehand and I made sure it works.

Couple of minutes ago I bought the game, installed it, and went to log in:

Boom #1: Your account is locked.

Ok this isn't that bad, I can use SMS verification to unlock it...

Boom #2: Try another verification method. This verification method isn't working right now.

Fine, lets see what the another method mind me.

Boom #3: It involves drumroll LOGGING IN TO YOUR ACCOUNT!

This is insane. Please Microsoft, I just want to play your game.. I've now bought twice, and will have to refund again...
