I used to be someone who never had pedals, and then I did a couple real world flights and completely changed my position and bought some the next day for my sim setup. Could never go back.

Craziest part about this is if he didn't relentlessly continue his vendetta against Flightbeam and instead developed KATL, LFPG, KDFW we would likely have no idea since it seems Mir was the first domino to fall, which allowed everything else to follow.

Ok but PMDG released frequent updates almost monthly after release while Fenix mostly did nothing for over a year. Its a big community feature request I don't think its horrible for them to highlight it. Same with Fenix Block2. You can bet that Fenix will hype the sharklets update and again no issue with it. Just seems like a weird way to hate on them when you reference a competitor who basically did the same thing last time they had a huge patch.

Lol Fenix hyped Block 2 (or V2 whatever it was they called it) like crazy for months.... Cant win if your PMDG. People just blatantly use factually false examples to hate now.

To be fair they dont price to top of the line. Many people also dont care about this. No comments from me on SEA I'm happy enough with BMW/Amsim but Feelthere definitely fills a niche. I have there BNA and its totally acceptable. No regrets on purchase.

Its obvious to me they likely had to release publicly as terms of the grant and now was the only time that made economic sense with the ini one comming for 2024.

The CRJ was first out but severely neglected post launch. Lots of P3D issues with the A330, what did everyone expect?

It seems you are previously qualified on the type.... Yes you are defiantly in the 1%. They sell 10,000s of these... I'm not even faulting you for trying to get them to make changes. Its just every single PMDG thread you come in with the same stuff over and over. Its a really solid product, and I would say outside maybe Fenix is the most high fidelity airliner in MSFS. I'm all for trying to make it better but like this isn't the way. At some point there has to be some acceptance that its not perfect but that its a really solid product and I've just never seen it from you. Also you would be amazed that the time it takes and "indifference" as airlines put it for Boeing itself to make updates due to errors in the code, and they have teams of 100+ software engineers working on this.

This is my main point of contention..... What other devs that sell a 777-300Er are they below? Seems like you expect them to be better than some mystery dev that doesnt exist.

I'm not saying things arnt off, fully admit things might be off but LRBS literally comes on every PMDG thread to complain about this.... All for a product that is in the ~100X (depending on airline size) less expensive than the actual Boeing electronic product. Like I get that things can always get better but it honestly seems like he can never be happy and I'm sorry a software dev making 70K a year hasn't fully been able to replicate the Boeing internal programming effectively enough, especially when 99% of the market is happy with the product. Edited to add: I used to work at Boeing, the SE team working on each individual system on these modern jets are almost 10+ deep. Unless Boeing gives the source code to PMDG, which they obviously wont its asking a lot to a small team of devs to replicate these systems 1:1

I feel like every PMDG topic you come in here with your super detailed and nit-picky comments about SUPER minor items. Yes the FD is a little jerky (although definitely massively improved over the 737) It's software for a entertainment based sim and priced accordingly. feels like you are expecting exact 1:1 with the real airplane at super magnitudes of reduction in cost that Boeing charges for their sim environment to airlines. I don't love PMDG and especially their communication but outside of Fenix and maybe iFly (assuming MAX meets expectations) who in the last 4 years produced a complex modern airline at the level they do? Its not perfect but its pretty dang good. Also looking at your post history, because I'm so intrigued why you have this obsession, it seems you basically post negatively about everything. Not the greatest way to live life.

LOL MSFS has the wrong info, but if you dont have 3rd party info that is actually correct you wont even see this error isn't the comeback you think it is.

Can't wait for all the "its tested in a sandbox, Asosbo isn't responsible for 3 party errors" people to come out and apologize. Figure I'll be waiting for a long time. No public beta contrary to almost every other release, updated with errors, but yea we shouldn't discuss if the project PM maybe isn't cut out for the job or else we are toxic.

No checking every add on compatibility would be. I'm sorry I just cant accept that you choose to not do an open beta and then your update CTD with one of the most widely used add ons in the market. Its a self inflicted error.

Can I bookmark this for when they mess up a MP add-on again? Y'all really need to get on the same page, first they are not responsible for 3rd party content as their sandbox only worries about the base program during updates (What I was first told). To now they check EVERY marketplace addon for compatibly before updating. They do not. There are plenty of MP addon airports that were broken due to updates that the dev had to fix. They didn't CTD but they were definitely broken. MS doesnt check any addon compatibility, but they should.
