GOTY hey ? Weird.,. All the GOTY (RPG  mostly) I bought in the past were products wrapping up the game and some DLC to reignite a slowing down market and a signal that no more development or DLC were to be expected. Just sayin’, nothing personal, your mileage may vary etc. etc.  😇 🤣.

Love it!

But it is another example of this weird marketing department they have. Why release this news some hours before SU6? Could they not have waited until tomorrow? I am sure this will create some confussion 🙂

This would actually have been a nice Xmas update.

oh that poor Porter guy 😡😰

True, but what about the ten year project? 🙂

I hope they implement at least ray tracing, MSFS water reflections need it so badly! And Italy world update of course 😎

I'm really hoping the arrival of the Super Hornet means support for supersonic speeds in the flight model and properly collimated HUDs

So the two free handcrafted US Airports coming with this update.

• Patrick Space Force Base (KCOF)
• Marine Corps Air Station Miramar (KNKX)z

Miramar makes sense, but why Patrick Space Force Base? It has nothing to do with fighter jets from what I can find. It's search and rescue and co-ordinates the unmanned Rocket Launches at Kennedy.

I'd say maybe because it's in the new Top Gun movie so they already made it. But I'd think they'd leave more things for that Expansion.

I couldn't for the life of me figure out why MS/ASOBO was plugging the MIlViz Porter so heavily in their ads on Twitter...I was seeing it in NZ, everywhere...d'oh...

Well i certainly look forward to trying out DX12

What is the current status of MSFS and DX12?

 

The turboprop spinup looked a lot better in the video than it is now! In fact imo all prop spinning animations are really poor in sim at the moment. Hoping this fixes that
