It's the same update as last week for the T7. Things are progressing well, but we don't have a release date yet. It's a lot of the same regurgitated information with a few pictures thrown in to distract people. 

Not exactly sure what people are expecting.  Its a status update of something not yet completed.  How much more do you expect from the update.

Not more, less. A status update was provided just last week. How about wait a month before releasing new details?

This is why PMDG has a reputation for being hype train merchants.

I think the popular opinion (and also based on hints from some of the screenshots) is that it will be the LR/F that is released first.

I'm fine with that. Can't wait to start trash hauls.

My god. The crying everytime PMDG does something is so annoying.

An actual picture of the cockpit that isn't hyper zoomed in on a single switch or looking at shelves that people will look at once and then never again would be appreciated at this point. The first actual 737 cockpit picture was shown 6 months before release of the plane.

I find it more hilarious than annoying....Its much like Pavlov's theory that they are so conditioned to complain here almost subconsciously whenever there is a new PMDG post.

Here is a quick flowchart documenting their thought process when a new PMDG post comes out (or doesn't)

You flatter them when you talk about thought processes, Steve.

LOL, I could see the point with the last post about RSR's rude interactions with some very long time forum members, but this time its just ridiculous.   For heavens sake why cant people just be happy they are providing these progress updates every weekend, its better than radio silence for months.

I have two friends who are also into flight simming, and they follow developer updates and flight sim news, but they are not active in any online community. When we talk about flight sim stuff there's a difference to what I see on the internet: Lack of complaining. There is the occasional comment like 'Too bad it's taking longer' or 'I hope addon X comes out soon' or 'That needs to be fixed'. Then, it's on to the next topic. Zero drama.

Then I go online, and see that flight simmers are complaining about getting too many updates for an anticipated release, as if that's doing any harm or they are being coerced to read it. The beta is going well and it's getting closer. I don't know why flight simmers can't just be happy for once or why some need to constantly find fault in every little thing.

In any case, there's nothing wrong in disliking their preview strategy. But you don't have to shout it from the rooftops every 5 minutes. It's just an internet post some CEO makes about a flight sim plane. You don't have to be here if you don't want to.

As I said before - then you will all be here complaining that there hasn't been an update for weeks.

PMDG threads on Avsim are living proof that you can't please any of the people any of the time.

I’m pretty sure at this point you guys have complained more about other users than anyone on this thread has complained about PMDG or randazzo and his latest post. 

No one is rioting. No one is calling for PMDG to stop production. No one is calling for randazzo to step down.

I’ve been a customer of PMDG for nearly twenty years, but you’d swear by reading some of the posts on here it’s almost inexcusable for other users to not agree with something. Practice what you preach gentlemen… if you don’t like what others have to say, move on.

Probably, and that shows how fed up people are with the constant fault finding and negativity.

But that’s the point, you guys have brought more negativity to this thread than the negativity you’re pointing fingers at.
