Yes, I'm also finding this.

This morning this was also mentioned in flightdeck2sim stream. A bit better but not quite there yet.

also on his landing he also questioned the tyre failure happening too easily I think

I don't use the tiller for steering just the rudder. Sharp turns under 10 knots which is the norm, I see no problem. Can make a U turn easily on the runway.

are you refreshing the page after hitting submit? sometimes it takes a while for a reply to go through, if you refresh while its still updating it will post it twice

Nope, just one click and waiting for it to post.

I haven't been around for 2 weeks and I'm unable to get the Ops Center to login to the server, they still didn't fix this? Am I just better off downloading the new version from their servers?

I think you just need to run the updater.

navigate to C:\Users\{username} \AppData\Roaming\PMDG\PMDG Operations Center right click on OpsCenterUpdater.exe and select run as administrator. This will update it to the new version.

I wonder if they are going to have a 737 MAX in the future.

Use it for cockpit familiarization and scan practice.  It's a very different cockpit; would have been nice to have a sim rendition when first learning it.  Many more people will be transitioning to them in the coming years and a sim version would be nice for them to have...

Fly longer missions than the NG is capable of.

more than that I would expect MCAS, the Maneuvering Characteristics Augmentation System. cough.

You would expect what from it though?  It's simply a subsystem of the STS that helps flight control pressures and effectiveness resemble the NG during a stall recovery; so in the sim, just a characteristic of the flight model.

Of course I'm sure some make believe accident investigator will try to use a video game to "re-create" or "study" the MCAS accidents to get some YouTube clicks out of people's deaths, but that'll be a fool's errand; well even more than usual in this case, since the current implementation of the MCAS makes that impossible anyway ;).
