"Pre-order before 25th April to receive the Diamond DA42 update"

Can still buy abit later.

Well dovetail flight sim will be out around october ish. With less payware content than x-plane.

Will be 9 or 10 based to work with most graphic card i think.

Does not tell how well they do bug fixes. And how sounds get recycled.

Or how they only include 2 or 3 missions for each train.

So lets assume for a moment that with the DLC model so obviously making a lot of money for a lot of companies, that it will apply to the new Flight based sim from DTG. The question then becomes how it would/will apply.

 

If Flight had had all regions of the world available separately for sale when it launched, would it have succeeded? I think probably yes. It stands to reason then that this would be the most likely scenario for the new sim. Sell the regions as DLC, you buy the core sim plus a region or multiple regions with the rest of the world you haven't bought being water. I think this would work for them. I only fly in Europe so I would only need Europe, I'd be perfectly happy with that.

 

If it takes off then third party devs would have no choice but to accept the restrictive terms on offer to develop for the new sim unless they want to sell only to an ever diminishing market for FSX. Of course P3d is the elephant in that room. If/when they go 64bit and if DTG go with the DLC model then devs have an avenue and each sim will go it's own way, one marketed to us and the pros that use LM's sim as a platform for whatever it is they use it for and the other to the masses through steam. I think all of the simmers on here could live with that prospect.

All regions would not help much if planes for sale is made arcade(simple start, no systems to control)

Well it can be noted that x-plane have 30k units sold. And that will equal about 15%.

777 and 737 is not likely to come in x-plane soon. As x-plane can not simply use fsx coded software.

probaby got an adware.

Wont help ad blocking it.

Will guess flightfactor have a 787 and a 767 planned. but release date on those is useless.

And md-80 is picked up by rotatesim and ats.

Well more chance of ixeg making one. 

Pmdg it will depend  what aircraft it is.

As dash 8 and dc 6 got different user base.

Would add that seasonmaxx will have nearly same effect when it gets released.

Well if fsx:se dlc was important news. Not that i like froogles relations with pc pilot.

Well if youtube videos or that thread on x-plane.org does not tell something.

As well as that teams long dedication and pride.

Matt-

 

I have an entire thread with the current round of information for Xplane.  You can find the latest information in that location.

 

As information changes, it gets updated.  If there is nothing new to add, it won't change...  Pretty easy to keep track of changes that way.

Well Can we not get a explanation on 60 day announcment.

Well can post a question and reply from facebook.

Hum, no answer to my questions...

1. Is the next Flight sim will be build with FSX engine or Microsoft FLIGHTSTORE engine?

2. I really want a boxed version of the next FS that doesnt need Steam to play!

Microsoft Flight Simulator X: Steam Edition We currently own the updated Microsoft Flight game engine. Some sections of this engine are based upon the FSX engine. At the moment it is far to early to say whether we will use this engine or a different one for a new aviation simulator. Likewise we can not say whether this simulator will use Steam. At the moment we are focused on working with Microsoft and other developers to bring content to FSX: Steam Edition. - Martin

Wrong thread.

Not that i think average avsim users prefer flight 1 product.

As i think dovetail will make dlc for their next flight simulator.

Gents-

 

Some of you really need to read the other posts pinned in the forum...  If you did, you wouldn't be asking about FSX:SE, P3D, etc....

 

(And since nobody asked specifically, yes, Xplane too.  LOL)

 

Really guys- please read the stuff we put here!

Is not x-plane project reveal three months overdue.

Well dovetail will certanly wants their bit off cake.

But margins is pretty important in flight simulator business

publishers got control over dlc. limit steam have made.

x-plane have a few from aerosoft. but they release it much later on steam.

http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2014-12-10/airbus-at-crossroads-as-a380-jumbo-faces-spend-or-fade-conundrum.html

I guess flightfactor could  build it.

But pmdg does not got compentace on those planes.

If PMDG were to do one yes. Maybe in a little more refined way but given that the desired outcome is the same...

I doubt any military boeing will be picked. But market for those in a sim like x-plane would be bad.

As it was said it will be made for fsx also.

Leading edge simulations got a 747-400 in development

And aerox-planes got a 737NG planned.

I'm quite a fan of Mike Ray's books on flying airliners. In his earlier books he has clearly indicated that MSFS is the way to go for airliner simulations and not X-Plane. In his more recent books, however, he hasn't mentioned X-Plane either negatively or positively at all.

I hope this upcoming IXEG will change his mind because I would love to use an updated version of his handbooks based on the X-Plane platform. Of course, if IXEG would work together with Mike and release the Aircraft together with a dedicated book written by Mike, that would be absolutely brilliant.

 

There is the usual impatience that is common to flightsim hobbyists when a really promising add-on is soon to be released, but I must admit that while I would love to see an early release, deep down I prefer the IXEG philosophy of getting this done properly the first time. From what I have seen and read, it looks like this will be a superb piece of software engineering.

Aerox-planes and flightfactor, rotatesim and many other will do that before im afraid.

Doubt it will be considered.
