[08APR22] PMDG 737 for MSFS Developer Update

Featured Replies

I think saying they never fix anything is a bit harsh and untrue considering they have released updates for various products over the years. Sure we might still be waiting for certain things they have announced previously but obviously priorities have changed currently.

Agree with this completely. Sure, the DC-6 could use an update, but I fly her often without much concern of those awaited updates. I also do-so, knowing that they're working hard on some seriously needed complex airliners.

Obviously, its good news for the DC6 (new product), and you are correct about it.
But how about the long-standing issues with LNAV etc for so many years regarding the 737, 747, and 777 that are still not fixed?
Let's be honest about it and acknowledge the shortcomings. 

747 Captain for the last 39 years, and still learning. 

Don't forget that FS20 is a constant evolution sim, and PMDG leaves their products the same for years, no evolution or further development.

Missing the PMDG DC6 in MSFS 2024 (she's here, but...).

FWIW, RSR confirmed the order of release is the 700, then the 600 then 800 then 900 in the Skyblue podcast this evening.

Well he will have to sell them pretty cheap if he wants people to buy more

I don't know why you think this is dumb^3. If you don't want to buy a variant, don't buy one. You really can't base frustration on the fact that you'll only have to wait a few weeks longer for the plane you actually want to purchase.

Ah no, that was just in numerical order from 600 up to 900 for the remaining packages. RSR already stated multiple times that the -800 will be second in line. So I don't think that changed.

Seems to be confirmed by rsr in his last postcat. 700, 600, 800 and 900

That's just taking the pis* of the customer base now.

I really wish that people would stop all of this "the 700 is being released first so that PMDG can milk the customer base before the popular versions are released" BS. Do you really think that the vast majority of the PMDG customer base limit themselves to only flying real world types on real world routes? Flight simulation is so much more than that. Anyway, there are loads of 700s flying all over the world. Granted, not as many as there are 800s, but so what? If you are that bothered by it, set up a self help group for butt hurt 800 pilots. You can grumble about it with like minded individuals to your heart's content.

All seven of them.

Good go fly your 600 I'll wait for the 800 and fly the proper plane on the proper routes. Some people like authenticity shock horror!

Best regards,
