Probably not. Their last update said "next update 01.30 !" but it was later changed to "next update 02.06 !".

Good News
  • We have been able to identify the issue that prevented us from launching our Alpha build yesterday and have a fix in place.
The not as good news
  • In order for us to implement the fix we needed to do some work which will require us to once again test a new build to before we can push it live.
What does this all mean
  • Without putting out a hard date we believe we can have this resolved sooner than later. Unfortunately, while we work on testing the build, maintenance is likely to continue until the new Alpha build goes live.

We understand that everyone is excited (us too) to jump in and help us test/explore the new Alpha build. As such we thank you again for your patience and understanding while we continue to work through this issue. The team has been hard at work to address this and we will continue to update you as we know more. We hope that after this has been resolved that wait will be worth it and everyone can jump back in and enjoy the latest Alpha build.

Thank you again,
-Microsoft Flight Simulator Team-

I don't even need to watch it - just the thumbnail tells me MSFS wins (for me).

I LONG ago tired of everything looking like that terrain does in X-Plane

Its not just terrain. Kinda eye , er ear opening as well

I can only imagine how much the amazing sound work in MSFS will benefit a VR experience also.

Correct sound, coming from the right physical locations, really helps to sell the experience to our brains.

Ugh! X-Plane sounds are not so great to put it as politely as I can. The rain on the aircraft was especially poor. That sounds more like someone popping bubble-wrap... :ohmy:

Maybe they are testers untill the release and can fly about a year before us. And we get couple of pictures per week untill the release.

As far as we know the inviting is over, no news about any more invites in the future.

Those of us who did not get in by now are likely not going to ever get in, unless further announcements are made later on.

 

We lose.😞

Sad... I thought they said, that everybody who signed up, eventually would get in? 

Oh well...

I was under the impression they once said this, too. The next round would certainly be with the start of the beta, if not earlier.
