For the love of whoever's upstairs, you all need to calm down. We're talking about some pixels and lines of code built by a private business to cater for your hobby. Nothing more. Have you lost all sense of priorities?? Some of you seem to have lost what elementary respect towards others is. This thread used to be a gold mine of great information and conversations, now it seems it's only a bunch of whiny immature people showing off their skills. It's pretty sad. AS folks, I do not know how you cope with this deluge of intellectual misery. Hold tight, for your own mental sake. We are also talking about the favorite hobby of many simmers where they spend their valuable free time. I think it’s comparable with waiting for a new car that get‘s delayed for many here. So I can understand some frustration. For myself I can say that I‘m also eagerly waiting for various aircraft’s in development and sometimes I‘m also a little bit frustrated and think about stop flying until the biggest wishes gets released. I just don‘t post it every day in the forums and ask for release dates etc. So besides that the negativity and disrespectful posts needs to stop, I understand why it happens. Perhaps it was not the best to show so many screenshots that early, it created too much hype too early and many (including myself) thought a release at the end of June could be realistic. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carl Järvholm MAGYe 36 Posted July 14, 2023 Share Posted July 14, 2023 I’ll just write this here to dilute all the winers. This is crazy. It’s like watching lord of the flies god damnit. People turning in to animals for what? An FS add on? We have a bloody date now where meaningfull info will drop. Use the search function for questions and hold your breath until July 21st.

Leonardo Meschini 18 Posted July 14, 2023 Share Posted July 14, 2023 aerosoft I understand that the development of such an aircraft is not easy, but let's talk about the fact that the delivery has already been delayed by at least 6 months. The time would not have come to answer basic questions such as the price at least. In my opinion it is all this "silence" that creates discontent. 1 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SimPilotMika 44 Posted July 14, 2023 Share Posted July 14, 2023 Will the A330 at least have a modelled entrance area that I can open the cockpit door for?

Vee1 13 Posted July 15, 2023 Share Posted July 15, 2023 It gives a smile about how the simming community has grown. From a niche of “wanting to learn” flyers (or real pilots) to when MSFS came to be. With MSFS it became another “x-box game” for many, (personally it’s a great and realistic simulator) where a lot of newcomers were very young people with little to no understanding of how a “serious” plane is built with lines of code and 3D modeling. I have been in Flight Simulator since Microsoft’s Flight Simulator 4 and I am one to have seen the change of “weather” in the forums. Now, it is true that the new addition of people in the community can give a great boost of income to flight simulation software companies. But I guess the forum moderators will have a lot more to moderate now than before. And we “oldies” will have to bear with some of that “weather” change. But then again, life has much more to offer than just forums and Flight Simulation. Aerosoft, all the best to this new team and all the best for a very good launch of the A330 whenever it will be. 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was in this community since FSX in 2010. I’m noticing the change too, MSFS has seen a massive amount of new people who stem from the gaming community rather than the simulator community since MSFS was the next best thing in the gaming world I feel happy knowing I was in flight simulator before it became popular 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bojangles 87 Posted July 15, 2023 Share Posted July 15, 2023 MSFS has turned the flightsim world head over heals. Wether that is for good or bad I think it’s up to the individual. It has been renaissance for GA flyers, they get a plane every week, a new scenery every day. For some reason building scenery’s for this simulator is like making toast for developers. Whike on the other hand making airliners has been an enigma for developers. I will not comment on the difficulty, but clearly there is an issue as a whole for the airliner developers when it comes to their planes and MSFS. I get the visual change has taken time to develop but it seems like the common culprit is the flight model and VNAV. At this point in time, it seems like it is less on the developers and more on MSFS. Developers can crank out gorgeous planes all day, but based on what the likes of PMDG alluded to in their forums and Aerosoft saying they are having difficulties with the vnav. I am beginning to wonder if currently MSFS is just a hot mess under the gorgeous looks. MSFS for myself personally is turning more into a scenery simulator than anything else. If I want to fly low to the ground I’ll fly MSFS. If I want to fly an airliner I jump into XPLANE 12 with my auto ortho. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have flown the 737 and a320 so much it is painful. I like the bae-146 but for some reason, personally I think it is better to fly in x-plane. The Fokker is intriguing but again we have so many vor to vor planes in MSFS where it makes the flyer calculate everything. Don’t get me wrong, I absolutely adore that flying it is so rewarding. But sometimes on a Saturday night with a beer I just want to fly that scrumptious RNAV arrivals that takes you into those hard to reach places. there are brilliant people working on these planes and I know they know how vNAv should work. It is now just seeming like it’s not their fault and it’s more MSFS for just being a total pain under the hood. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can’t fly in XP anymore because of the bad Australian scenery (including ortho), and the lack of utility addons like GSX etc. Right now I’m waiting for the A330 (since it’s the only reasonable Qantas Airbus) and then when the A350 releases I’ll fly that.

No she's saying she wants another high fidelity or study level airliner that is NOT quite small and is pretty much only used for short hauls like the BAe146 for example, and e.g they tend to be old fashioned when it comes to navigation which is probably not what she wants. PMDG 737 and the Fenix A320 are pretty much the only ones out there that suit her wants but she's been flying them so long she's gotten tired of them, so she wants another plane that is close to or on the same level as they are in terms of systems, flight model, you name it.

Aerosoft might have aimed for a 2022 release, but never promised it. Mathijs made it perfectly clear, in each of his posts regarding a release date, that no release date has been decided and the only thing he commited to was a 2 weeks notification before the release. Please feel free to find any post of him in here stating anything else. Everything else is purely made up by users who either ignored relevant parts of an information given here or believed what other users said. Example: Q: "So could we say between 1 - 4 [months] lets say?" A: "Without any guarantee, lets." What some users made out of that: "Hurray, the release will in 4 months." See my point? By ignoring 3/4 of the given answer I would also come to that conclusion. But that would only be 1/4 of the truth... Honestly speaking: the only reliable source of information regarding the A330 is here. In the past it came directly from Mathijs. Now just look to the left if a user has an "Aerosoft" badge or watch out for the A330 web page that has been announced for the end of this week for the latest information. 5 5 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EDIT: He to She. Even if you confine the spectrum to that very narrow-angle, there's plenty more than the PMDG 737 and Fenix. Obviously, she wouldn't be here if Aerosoft's level of fidelity wasn't sufficient for her, and in that case, even the 787 and 747 with the new avionics from the AA2 are perfectly eligible. The truth is that for a completely new simulator platform that has been out less than 3 years, what we have in terms of all types of aircraft (including airliners) is absolutely luxurious and historically unprecedented. I'm starting to suspect a lot of people 'round here weren't around when previous new platforms without backward compatibility were released, and aren't aware of the usual pace at which aircraft are developed in this kind of situation. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
