Bit harsh there; I for one am grateful that they spend their time to answer questions from the community and explain some of the features and other behind-the-scenes things. Of course they can't be on top of everything, or know every single detail of questions asked on the spot. I think a say two-month schedule is fine for these QA sessions.

Top 10 add-on airports for MSFS of 2021
TheJAG replied to FilbertFlies's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
When you download from flightsim.to as a registered user it will keep a download list that you can refer to in your profile, it will actually tell you which freeware items have updates. Don't wait for Asobo, it's already here :) -
MSFS Testing & Hubble Space Telescope
TheJAG replied to David Mills's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
You're right, an update solely to fix bugs, and to give the team a well earned rest. It's a shame we're again in a speculative thread on how Asobo conducts their business. Mistakes happen, it's a living beast that Asobo / MS is pushing forward. Whilst some errors happened for whatever reason, a gazillion other things that *could* go wrong, didn't. Clearly we all want a perfect simulator from day 1, but that's just not how this sim works. We have gotten something that was a good way there, we're now on the journey with them to perfection, C'est La Vie - accept and move on. -
I'm in exactly the same boat as you; whilst it's tempting to upgrade to something lightning fast now, the inflated prices really make me think twice. Once everyone get their social lives back and get off their computers supply should outstrip demand and we should see sane pricing again. I'm certainly going to hold off until then. RTX 40xx series is probably my next stop together with a next-gen CPU. So lucky that MSFS performs so well on current hardware with reasonable reach on the sliders (2070S+9900K), it's just for VR (G2) where I wouldn't mind being able to go harder on the hardware.

SU6 pretty much makes it obvious....
TheJAG replied to Sesquashtoo's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
Not sure if I had wanted to wait for this another year, but yeah - if it was marked as 'early release' maybe the frustration across parts of the community would have been less. We're truly blessed though with the level of engagement and content provided by MS/Asobo, it's markedly different to any other releases of FS. The amount of pay- and freeware available is truly mind boggling; when it was first released I thought it would take at least a couple of years to get to this level and see where we are now! Only recently I tried my hands on VR and got a G2 - long time simmer here, biggest smile ever! -
Righto, good plan, gonna party all night for this big announcement in December!

Sim update 6 tomorrow 19 Oktober
TheJAG replied to pmplayer's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
If they've pulled this off properly I'd be very grateful!! I wish they would improve ground handling/friction soon too, but it's slated for next year. At least it's in the pipeline! -
iniSimulations A310 coming to MSFS
TheJAG replied to Zangoose's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
Really fantastic news, back in the old days I loved flying the Sim Soft Workshop A310. This will be a day one purchase for me for sure! -
MSFS Addons Linker - organization idea tips
TheJAG replied to captain420's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
Readme's mostly, yes. However, in a fair few cases when using flightsim.to the developer will have filled out the "Dependencies" tab. -

How do you buy your Orbx scenery?
TheJAG replied to chickster25's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
ORBX for me too, it's a great app - very easy to navigate and the map that shows addons you own, which are discounted and the others available is cool. Marketplace, yeah nah, not unless I have too. I'd rather use the developers installers for quick updates, but having to manage many is a pain in a way. I just put all the app icons in a specific section on my desktop and check them all once in a while which works well. -

Thanks for the explanation Andy, I was wondering what the best process would be myself!
