To be fair, English is not everyone’s first language and dense prose can be quite a slog in a second / third language. Bullet points would absolutely be a better way to itemize several short pieces of information. 

To be fair anyone could put it into ChatGPT and ask it to summarize for them as well LOL.   That whole AI fad LOL  

I just figured people would have appreciated a heads up that the hotfix is out, I didn't mean to start another RSR critique and bash fest.  

This is obviously going to be nothing more than a critique of RSR and his writing style so moderators as the OP, please feel free to close this thread down. 

People can get their information elsewhere and they can read the hotfix is out even if the thread is locked.  

Shame.

Lets face it, on Avsim, if you post that the "Sun Came up today", an immediate flame war would erupt, with some asking you why you had the nerve to post that...😡

Wow some people are very sensitive here. SMH.

Your reading comprehension is terrible. Or you just have an extremely big bias when reading posts. Either way you should read that post again.

I'll set aside the personal insult to maybe another time.

What is irritating is the same suspects constantly jumping on posts from PMDG which are meant to keep customers informed.

If you don't like the posts either:

a) Do not read them

b) Don't buy the product so you don't have to read them

c) If you can't do a) or b) the rest of us are tired of listening to complaints about the way the information is presented. We get you don't like PMDG or their boss. We don't need to hear it repeated each time they make an announcement.

Is that clear enough?

Didn’t realize the idea that bullet points are a better format for patch notes than dense prose was such a hot potato.

For your reasons alone brevity in prose should always be RSRs goal when communicating to his now very large and very international customer base.  Nuff said.

You can always count on the contents of an Avsim PMDG thread is everything but the actual title.

So…anyone notice any differences?

PS…prior to the patch I found the managed component of a managed descent was somewhat lacking. Hard altitude constraints we treated more as “hopefully” as opposed to mandatory.  I haven’t tested since hotfix application but am on a 3.5 hr flight that hits TOD in 50 minutes so I might have a more informed opinion then.

YMMV. TANSTAAFL

With PMDG you just know what you are going to get, quality from the outset and regular updates. A hotfix already is impressive. 

Is it correct that i cant move the right EFB to any locations ?

 

Thanks

Where is the Hotfix for 737 line that is still broken since Sim update 15?

"...quality from the outset and regular updates. A hotfix already is impressive." 

Well, come to think of it, 'quality from the outset ' and 'a hotfix already' seem a bit contradictory.

Typical of  whenever  there  is  a pmdg  thread, turns into a pmdg  frenzy of posts  against  them

It is indeed frustrating when a product is launched with pre-existing issues or bugs from the previous version, compounded by newly discovered ones. I wholeheartedly share your sentiments on this matter.

 

One should ask how you keep customers informed when you ask them " IMPORTANT: Please don't ask "are you fixing X or Y." If you read the detail section below, you will see that we have a methodology- and a long window in which to work.. I appreciate your understanding." . 

Customers would appreciate what are the actual problems you acknowledge and existing ones. A real bullet list will be appreciated versus an empty statement like " Some issues related to,  A couple of operational bugs, We have a handful of critical fixes, " .  

All I can see is some excellent features in this product that are shadowed by many bugs brought from the 737, plus an unfinished FBW trim speed system and some odd behavior flight characteristics for this airplane flown in manual mode. You wonder, as usual where was/is quality and pre-release check. Lately, every release has been rushed with unsatisfactory expectations.
