I would think that question would be better asked of an Aerosoft employee instead of putting Mathijs in an awkward position, but don't let that stop you from spamming it a 21st time.

Credit where it's due, the included manuals and the excellent series by The Dude really helped me get off the ground with not just the CRJ, but became the basis for all the airliners I've flown in the sim since then.

Flying the CRJ made me a better sim pilot as well! 😉

Anyone at FSWeekend who've seen the update demonstrated?

I’ve asked.  They employees either reply in part, or promise to reply “soon” and 8 months later still nothing.   So yes, I’ll ask someone who may be knowledgeable.  
this isn’t a national security topic. It shouldn’t be that hard in this long to get an answer and you didn’t add any value to the conversation so there is no point for you to chime in.

I imagine this would be the absolute last place to get any information. You have to cobble together tiny bits of info from across sources and arrive at the consensus that it was due in Feb allegedly and now hopefully before July.    Honestly, our best hope is that there is a developer somewhere quietly working on a High Fidelity CRJ Family and we just don’t know it yet.

Hans will show the new version at FSWeekend in a few days. I have been doing a few hours on it yesterday and love it.

@Mathijs KokSo that didn’t happen. Where was the new version?  Yet another missed mark and no communication.

It used to be called credibility.  This company is not familiar with that term.  Why is it so difficult to explain how this went from Feb release to hopefully by end of q2?

Take it easy, the updated CRJ was indeed showcased in the Aerosoft booth, running on MSFS2024. Looked like a nice update. Release was said to be very soon.

That's the problem, we've been hearing for years that the update will be out soon, understand that no one believes it.

Don’t tell me to take it easy when I asked a fair question and pointed out a trend of misinformation.   If it was indeed presented, why then have there been no articles or news or content showed?  
 

Like others say, it’s been years with very little info and any official commentary goes radio silent.

Hans was at the FSWeekend. He showed the new CRJ to hundreds of people and replied to every question. People liked what they saw.

You've got the information you need, a confirmation that the update is in active development and being demonstrated. Now stop nagging and enjoy the sun.

I don't even understand your indignation, you don't even own the plane and you're the most upset out of all of us.

Nobody posting here knows the answer to the XBox question.

Technically it's possible for 2024, depending on what HH deems a "deep overhaul" allowing it to be Xbox compatible... But if I were a betting man....

 

This is what's puzzling to me, not even a casual mention of this on FSElites site (the sponsors), nor any outside conformation of HH being there, aside from the statement made by Mathijs. You would think that after all this time, an update being "Soon" would make pretty big waves and the main organizers (FSElite) or any social media attendees would have at least something. But crickets....

On a different source it was told the CRJ release was moved out by a week. If that all is right, first streamer should show it on the coming Monday. It will be releasead Thursday next week. It will be available for 2020 and 2024, also on Xbox (even due to market place this could take longer) and finaly this should be all by no charge for the ones already been owner.

Yet he has not visited the Aerosoft forums since early January, nor answered any questions from his paying customers in months... Why is there no info provided here? Or where is the rest of the "marketing campaign" that you suggested?

 

Mr. Hartmann is from a different era and clearly has no idea how to communicate. Needs to have a CRM course.

Hans is the developer, not the project manager or handling marketing. I have done projects with him for a few decades; he never handled that part of the business. You are barking up the wrong tree.

There is a comment on the aerosoft discord from a member of aerosoft staff saying the release date is planned to be Tuesday https://discord.com/channels/1024582293563641916/1151809525914009621/1351833417255223326

Cool. Thanks. Any chance you can get a formal scene shot citing Xbox inclusion as well?  I know someone above cited Raphael but no official image
