Honestly I’ve been the biggest supporter of these guy but it’s getting ridiculous.

Same same.

For transparency: I'm a community mentor at the BATC discord. However, I do not get paid for it in any way.

Nothing new. PMDG is fixing their products to work better on XBox because that’s where the $$$$$ is.

For those who can’t access the original, here it is (with minor paraphrasing, for clarity).

“Captains,

There has been some dev time bleed off on the 777 project, so our projected release date has now changed from an unspecified time in the future to a different unspecified time.

The good news is that this change in dev focus could potentially have allowed us to release a 737 update (better magenta line!), DC6 revamp, Xbox planes AND the EFB. But we haven’t actually done any of those things.

However, what I can say for sure is that at some unknown time in the future, I will get the green light to give you a wildly inaccurate estimate of when you’ll get the (partially functioning) EFB. 

Yours sincerely, with great joy.

Captain Bobby R.”

LOL... I always said that if you gave away free money on this forum that 1/2 the folks would complain about the amount and the other 1/2 would complain about the denomination of the bills.

try me

EVGA 850w Gold cert PSU, CUK Continuum full ATX tower.  43" Sceptre 4K display. VR: HP Reverb G2.

Oh look, nearing a year since the release of the 737 line and still no EFB in sight, nor any public estimate for a release date. Not that Robert ever was right about any of those dates in the past. I can't remember a single release of theirs that was not at least 3 to 9 months delayed from initial estimates.

What I would really like to see is some effort in fixing the Gyro Pilot on the DC6 to work with the GPS. 

 

 

 

Didn't you know Keirtt, were not allowed to have an opinions on Avsim. I mentioned I was disappointed in the Fenix delay during a past post when an OG member tried to guilt me about it.

Nah, you just don’t like other people challenging your opinion.

At this point I'm convinced PMDG post these updates just to get a giggle out of reading avsim threads on it!

Apparently you didn’t read the entire past topic, typical. 😉

I don't disagree with your point in the other thread, but in this context, it's completely offtopic.

As they should- they are a business. Please continue to make boatloads of money on XBox so you can pay for developers to make PC planes.
