Hello guys,
I have been playing the game since launch and problems keep appearing since the moment of the slow download. I am not willing to talk about frequent crashing (despite good specs: Ryzen 2700x und 2080 Ti), but the autopilot in airliners like A320 Neo, B747 and B787 is horrible and extremely annoying, in them all!! Suddenly stops working and plane does not respond to any input given at any time, any altitude or any speed! And I am not assigning any crash simulation!!!
The same applies to autothrottle!
Is any one facing a similar issue? Could you manage to solve it?
Thanks!
UPDATE on 30.08.2020:
So dears, to sum up some of the issues I met, I am putting that in short, keeping in mind I am not a true pilot, just a hobbyist simmer:
This is what I noticed so far. If you noticed some of these bugs, all of them or other bugs, please share. If you could manage to fix any of them, please share as well!

But you should not compare the game to other games as the other games have also Demo versions and cost less than that of MSFS 2020. Let me ask you to get what I mean: can you drive a car if it has a faulty rear windshield wiper? Of course you can. But can you drive a car with a faulty gas pedal?!
Which oter Flight Sims cost less than FS2020 and contain the same level of base content?
So is the case with MSFS 2020: the bugs it has are like having faulty gas pedal, faulty brakes, etc in a car! You cannot then use your car! The bugs the game has let the game be not playable!
I disagree. All the GA aircraft work extremely well, and the airliners work well enough. I've completed numerous 10+hr flights in airliners and most of them without any issues.
I suppose I'm being a bit more accepting of this because this is such an ambitious undertaking, and with the pandemic it's been even more difficult to develop games than it already is which I'm sure can be attributed to the issues. I've watched numerous videos with the developers, Q&A streams and it's obvious the developers are passionate about this so I'm confident the issues will be fixed over time.
Look my friend, I would agree with you, the game is really a huge game that has a really great potential with the amazing Scenery and Graphics that I guess no developer would bring such a game for long time now. I agree with you, I give the game my support. I myself am not planning to get a refund for the time being.

So I am not planning to have a refund for the time being, but if MS does not fix these "silly" bugs by their upcoming update(s) and although I really support the game for now, I would rather make use of my right of refund in case the bugs keep getting ignored as they did since alpha stage, even if I had to consult a lawyer and file a lawsuit, because I purchased the premium deluxe version and not a standard version!
I have only flown the smaller airplanes.
If you pause the game with autopilot on then resume - nothing works and you almost always crash. the planes simply spiral to the ground.
pushing the ap btns or trying to fly manually - nothing.
Some things that also could be improved.
When you pop out the windows for the G1000 - it would be nice if the buttons to control them were present.
Replay mode needed - I echo that.
Still working on getting ILS working properly - works a charm in x-plane 11.5

The auto throttle in the Airbus is such a pain, i have the same issue as you, it goes on randomly, even if i have no speed set, very sad.
