MS Store Update only, no in-game or content manager updates

 

Release Notes 1.30.12.0

If you are playing on PC, outdated packages in your community folder may have an unexpected impact on the title’s performance and behavior.

If you suffer from stability issues or long loading times, move your community package(s) to another folder before relaunching the title.

What did you expect? It's not a sim update, if that's what you think.

While it is a little harsh, I understand Miguel's sentiment.

"Several crashes have been fixed across the title"

They never say which ones!  😕  Surely if they have fixed them, they know what they have fixed. 
It wouldn't hurt to tell us rather than wondering if that pesky 'Russian roulette' GPU error with CTD is going to crop up again sometime in the future.

One finding though that honestly started yesterday prior to this update: I was offline. Marketplace greyed out, no connection possible. Signing out of XBOX and MSFS on my PC did not help. Again, not related to this update but seemingly something changed my data settings in MSFS as online functionality was set to OFF. So just in case that happend/happens to you: https://flightsimulator.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/4408142431378-All-versions-How-to-restart-Online-functionality

Yes as someone who (strangely) loves to read patch notes I would prefer some detailed information, it's very vague at times which is a shame but not uncommon amongst gaming developers.

All platforms means Steam, MS Store, and XBoxes. It doesn't mean the update applies to the retail non-beta version of the sim.

The update was for AAU1.

So not much done in this update which leads me to believe that the next one will be the full release.

Exactly!
I, too, fondly remember the comprehensive and detailed patch notes we regularly received in the past for the earlier flight simulators. 🙄

Sometimes it isn't practical to list all these fixes. I assume anything major will be listed seperately but there could be hundreds of tiny fixes or fixes that only affect a few users.

Ah! Sarcasm!  😆  Obviously you don't want any further detail - that's fine. 
Because it is really, really hard to write a few lines about which CTD's are cured isn't it?  

Let's all guess instead, and compare notes about years old flight sims and their patch notes.  That's a good game. 🙄

Sure, and I wouldn't expect that actually.  I just think CTD's are a pretty major event - It would be nice to see what they found and fixed.
