Yeah, he was rather cryptic. Here's what he said:

“There’s many good reasons why this [plane] is being done”

 

“There’s gonna be some things associated with that plane that we can’t just quite yet talk about but it’s super cool and it makes a big difference”

 

 

Float version, wakes ( that would be awesome ).

Jorg wants people to post on the MSFS forums as to why you guys think historical weather is important for the sim.

 

Great! Have a look here:

Why is historic weather important! - Bugs & Issues / Weather - Microsoft Flight Simulator Forums

 

and upvote, please!

Finally!

Just like a few others I had requested that from the start. I started and participated in several threads and brought up that question several times for the Q&As. All that had been completely ignored by MS/Asobo so far.

So - as weird as it is that they request that feedback now when it was already given several times months ago - I'm glad they finally acknowledge that the concept of historic weather might be useful.

Voted. And will participate in that thread later today.

Proper waves that the plane interacts with ?

Ability to drive out of and into the water via slipways ?

Please waves or wakes when you take off or land please, at some point? Take care of the important stuff first, then take care of this 🙂

My guess on the Husky - proper maintenance and servicing, like the A2A models have (including maybe swapping of some optional parts).

Or if it is a bit less than that, are these ever used as glider towing aircraft?  That would set it up nicely for the glider additions at a later date.

Great to see the improvements being made, and the direction the sim is heading.... well done all involved.

I just watched it today, it is very informative!

However, something has caught my attention, Jörg mentioned that, they are working on a trailer that is featuring community liveries and to celebrate the liveries that community has created, is that because of CaptainSim's stupid stunt 😄 ?

No, the team started reaching out to livery authors before the CaptainSim incident, but it is definitely timely now, for sure.

Indeed a perfect timing now LOL!

The game is shaping up to be a simulator really fast. Good to see.

I'm glad they put the tree thing to rest. It makes perfect sense

This is interesting. What was actually said?

Yes, their attitude towards not only fixing the bugs, but continuing to enhance the sim and add new features is exactly why this sim will last another 30 years...easily.

This is why I would encourage people to buy add-ons/mods from the marketplace when possible. A steady stream of revenue for the franchise is what allows them to hire talented guys like Working Title and others.

I agree. If we buy it from the MSFS marketplace, the 3rd party devs also get paid, albeit Microsoft gets a cut. But if we care about the future of MSFS, and we want the 10 year promise to be fulfilled, Microsoft needs to continue to see revenue from MSFS and that can only happen if we purchase from the MSFS marketplace.  I want this to become a 10 year project.  Therefore, I will purchase from the MSFS marketplace and I don’t mind if Microsoft gets their cut from the sales.
