June 19, 20232 yr The news about 2024 hasn't and won't change my buying habits. If something interesting will be released I will buy it and enjoy it. I live NOW and not in the future. No one knows what the future will bring but I do know what I can do today. Besides, I do think that MSFS 2024 will not be a completely new sim but more or less a paid update (even if it needs a seperate install) so I've got no real worries. But even then... if MSFS 2024 would turn out to be a COMPLETELY new sim which would require me to buy ALL my beloved addons again I wouldn't change my buying habits for the reason mentioned above.
June 19, 20232 yr I will be buying some Orbx stuff in their next sale. Michael Thesen MSFS, HP Reverb G2, Gigabyte B760 32Gb, Samsung 970 EVO, Geforce RTX 4070-TI, Win11, i7-14700KF, Thrustmaster T16000M, Saitek Pro Flight Rudder Pedals
June 19, 20232 yr I just bought the ATR 72, and will buy any Airbus / Boeing / Embraer worth the buy airliner. I am also still trying to decide what ATC program to invest in. Gliders of quality are yet another strong option. The helicopters so far didn't impress me 😕 Edited June 19, 20232 yr by jcomm Flying gliders since 1980 Flightsimming since 1992 AMD Ryzen 5600x, 32GB RAM, GPU Nvidia RTX 3060 Ti 8 GB, 1 TB and 500 GB nvme2 SSD drives, HP 27" 60Hz LED monitor @ 1920x1080, T16000, Hotas from old X52 Pro, Saitek Combat Rudder Pro (2010 model)

June 19, 20232 yr "2024" will be a different thing apparently, i don't even know if i'm going for it left alone deciding upon purchases for MSFS. I tend to enjoy what i have at present.

May be interested in purchasing the PMDG 777 (if it reviews well). Why would I deprive myself of enjoying these add-ons, bearing in mind we don't know when MSFS2024 will arrive?

June 19, 20232 yr 2024 will be so close to our current 2020 that i guess most of the updates will be on both versions parallel (e.g. ATC). I dont stop buying, will enjoy the stuff now and later in 2024.

June 19, 20232 yr I will continue to buy, but a lot more selectively. Previously my purchases sat unused for months before first use as I naively thought MSFS 2020 would be around for many years to come. MS2024 will definitely reduce my spend but not stop it entirely.

June 19, 20232 yr Made no difference to me. I'll keep buying, they've made their statement, it's good enough for me. Regards, Max (YSSY) i7-12700K | Corsair Vengeance LPX 64GB 3600MHz DDR4 | Gigabyte RTX4090 24Gb | Gigabyte Z690 AORUS ELITE DDR4 | Corsair HX1200 PSU
