The QW 787 is okay for people who are hobbyist and enthusiast, but it isn't for those of us who are actual airline pilots.  I would like to have a sim that is closer to the real thing so that I can practice and stay proficient using my home computer.  I don't want to be too hard on QW, because it really is a nice sim, but it just doesn't' measure up to the accuracy of PMDG's 777.  

VNAV, Systems, FMA's, and many many other issues plague the airplane and the FMC.  It just enough to mess you up.  

I would be willing to pay for the value of a PMDG 787!!!

Not to mention twice the price if they decided (PMDG) but also a long dev. cycle.  I think we all including myself would enjoy something like a PMDG quality model, but lets be thankful that QW has a very decent considering the $20 or so alternative -

 

 

I'm pretty sure a 787 and/or 777X will drop eventually. We do know, based on a recent job advert, that they do have a new aircraft in development besides the 737 BBJ/freighter/MAX models, and thinking in terms of business sense, it's almost certainly the 787 since the 777X hasn't even been delivered yet. PMDG also showed potential interest in an E-Jets product line, but we'll see about that.
