  1. I'm still newish to 2024 and only have flown the Duke, CRJ, fenix, A300, MD-88. In my first test this one had some performance issues vs the rest. But one flight isn't a fair test either. More tests to follow.
  2. we live in a day where so many people have streamdecks, hardware FCU's, hardware MCPs, CDU's. All of that are invisible to the stock sim settings.
  3. yeah I get it. I have so many pieces of hardware now that I've put on the rig over the years. For me that wouldn't be an option. In fact it would be impossible.
  4. It's software that allows you to manage key bindings/axis and all sorts of other things. Streamdecks, switch panels. You basically use it to create profiles. So in theory you can not use the sim for anything other than the camera system.
  5. The more you learn to use spad.next, the less you will ever want to use the sim controls. So powerful. Also nice having an actual backup on your machine. Not to mention bindings for same aircraft in 2020 are largely automatically working in 24, and likely the next sim.
  6. Nope. They are not great with that. They either communicate or completely ignore.
  7. there have been a handful of third party developers over the last year who have said this.
  8. that doesn't really tell the story though. How many 777-300ER's did they sell in old sim? The DC-6 is not relevant. It came out when the MSFS numbers were still very very high. You are incorrectly assuming I'm turning this into a sim vs sim. I am not. In fact I don't use p3d anymore. I'm just trying to say that it's false to say MSFS is still riding the initial wave. Many of those users moved on to something else. Clearly the market is still bigger now than the p3d days however. Other developers have commented that msfs isn't quite as big as it was right at release. Which tracks with less mainstream media coverage and streamers not showing it in game benchmarks at the frequency they used to.
  9. Show me where they say the markets is STILL huge
  10. Fair point on the F28/146. I'm not sure the flight sim market is so much bigger than p3d anymore. It was at first when MSFS released. It's definitely bigger. But I get the impression many newbies came and went. ATR: much more common than the Q400 now. It's one of my favorite planes. So I absolutely want it to come though. One thing to consider is that the plane runs outside the sim. Always has. Considering that, I think majestic will in fact be able to push the ball over the line.
  11. I feel this is a very unique perspective. It seems across the board that people are happy with the V2 release.
  12. Well fenix made the a320. One of the top two most popular models. Q400 doesn’t attract as much interest. Not saying you are wrong about them hearing another developer could be coming in. Just flight also isn’t super rapid getting planes released
  13. competition is great. But mostly us diehards who want the Q400. It's not in super demand.
  14. I had hundreds of hours in the plane and not had that happen. Many of those hours in the training edition. I appreciated the external controls with the higher resolution settings for accuracy. the plane when proficient would fly exactly by the numbers on approach. Weight and balance was also done nicely especially if you flew it often. in fact I remember there was a third party iPhone app to speed up the w and b. My only issue was the gear pin bug. It was recognized but never fixed . Sometimes despite checking the plane, it would treat it like the gear pins were left in and prevent you from retracting gear. It was intermittent and rare. But very annoying
  15. Yes I owned the pbr update and even simulated it years prior with tomato shade. But that update visually was still not near the level we see with other airplanes nowadays. But I accept that considering how good that plane was.
