LOL 2 minutes of vidéo for 3h wait 

A little more than a few hours. We waited 4 years

 

I'm sorry, but that was the most idiotic thing I have seen in quite a while in the FS community.

Summarizing useful bits from the Q&A:

Within 2 months to release, but longer than 2 weeks at least

They are holding release for proper RF legs. (most likely, small chance it slips to the -F)

The -F is going to be the second variant.

The MAX is "very far along", will likely drop in between 777 variants.

All four 777 variants (-300ER, -200ER, -F, -200LR) will be separate variants/purchases

Price will be inline with 737 variants.

No taxi cam due to MSFS limitations, but asked Asobo to give the ability in the future

Expecting less time in between variant releases as they held the first variant a lot longer than they were planning on. Definitely won't take a full year.

Considering cabin announcements as a post-release improvement.

CPDLC functionality will be included on release (Hoppie)

RAAS not happening because of licensing issues

Confirmed they are working on a new airplane line. Someone asked about the 787 and he had a suspicious facial expression as he tried to say maybe lol

The cantilevered main gear on the -300ER is correctly modeled.

No HUD - it's an STC (not a Boeing option) in the real plane and they don't have the data for it.

Coy reponse suggesting they finally caved and may have included the default weather radar implementation

Auto step climbs are included

Huh?  What Q&A

Not going to lie the video was disappointing. Textures look questionable and having the EFB where it is looks silly IMO.
