Sim Update 3 is what we are looking for - 23rd February 2021

Featured Replies

by February next year - 2021 - we will have so much more MFS info & experience,

& will be amazed if Asobo/MS has VR ready by Christmas 2020 - but am ready,

every iteration of Steam MFS, so far, has big positives for flying,

the Robert Young Turbo Bonanza is a dream,

just deployed REX Weather Force - worthwhile experience (always used Active Sky & SkyMaxx Pro before in other sims),

August 18 2020 to February 2021 is not too long a wait,

& we get VR & UK Update by then,

will be patiently waiting in the wings 🙂

Can you imagine if we could already be at the end of November ...
The wait would be even shorter!

This is extremely detailed explanation, a long tech read!!! Here is more friendly variant 😄

Improvements to:

  • FS2020

P.S. Frankly, I no longer believe in any Asobo plans.

So I guess DX12 is not coming any time soon?

It will be nice that fs 2020 will be upgraded once again in February to make sure all of the bugs are worked out and that it will be as close to the real world as possible.

But still there's one upgrade still missing.

To this date as of this writing, it still isn't accessible for we who need to use a screen reader to interact with our computer.

In short, it still isn't accessible to the blind like it's predicessor the FSX program was.

Now, this has to be thought of as well before it becomes fully accessible to all who'd like to enjoy the new flight simulator.

DX12 is coming alongside the Xbox release, which they haven't given a release date for yet.  Doesn't mean it's a long way off, but because it's essentially a new game release for the console, it means any announcement of the date will come with more organized fanfare than their other sim updates.

Hi Ron - you should definitely post about this on the official forums.  Microsoft have actually been really good with their last few major game releases to include lots of accessibility options (Gears of War 5 actually won an award for it's excellent options on this front).  I suspect if your thread got enough attention, Asobo might well put in the work to support it.

SIm Update 3 seems like the big one because it includes all of the work on the Garmin people have been calling for since August.

For me this is the perfect GA sim. My preferred sim for airliners is my fully loaded P3D v.4.5. Since my passion comes from exploring airports and regions I've embrassed MSFS as my favorite sim of all time.

That does not mean that if I ever get the itch to fly an airliner that I can't scratch myself.

By February, the LOD will have regressed so much, that the details wont pop in until you fly past them.

Is there also a list what broke down with the next upate ? 🤪
