Finally! This is great news for those of us who like to fly in Asia. I really hope they put more focus into the rest of Asia. It's a very beautiful place that needs some TLC.

Totally agree! An Asia update is long overdue! Can't wait to see how it will evolve. Very exciting times.

Does anybody remember where they said how often they're planning to release world updates? I seem to remember something like a world update every 2-4 months, but can't find it anymore... 

Every 2-3 months. A roadmap from July can be found at the bottom of this page: https://fselite.net/news/microsoft-flight-simulator-information-vr-steam-edition-third-party-info-and-future-plans/

I guess so far we've gotten Sim Update I and soon World Update I, so plans have probably changed a bit.

Well there's a positive sign of intent for future development 👍

Nice one team

That certainly looks very nice, and good to see those impressive bridges with clear space underneath them!

I welcome it, however I think we should get the airplanes working first... I know, I know, blah blah blah separate teams work on separate issues but still...

Darn. Lucky for Japanese simmers. I just want to fast forward time by 5 years so we have world updates for every major city and region in the world 🙂

But you would be 5 years older… better wait :-)

There is no but still.. about it. A scenery deveopler is not going to reprogram avionics. Simple.

i rather have them fix the bugs first, pls

but yes, looks nice.

Maybe adding new stuff will help fix the bugs in the old stuff.

As one who is on a somewhat slow internet connection, can I assume that one will not actually download this update unless one chooses to fly within Japan?

Ah bless. 🙂 No you can't.

I would imagine that the landscape updates and poi's would be in the cloud, but any upgraded airports you would download, as it is currently.
