October 17, 2024 Development Update Blog Discussion

Those new VTOL aircraft are amazing.
It feels like everything is about to change. A huge Star Trek like jump forward.
I think I still want a gas tank backup if there is no EM Harvesting tech built in.


The Global Event.
Kind of a tough crowd at the start it seems. But they got into it! Rightly so. You’re in a room among people doing things that have never been done before. Things that no other sim/game developer on Earth is doing. And. You’re an elite small group getting to bask in that.

It was nice basking in the replay.
It answered things I missed or did not see in the Alpha test weekend. Especially visualization of Sids and Stars.
I felt silly for having doubts or for having missed that.
Love the Skyvector like planning.

Love the particle physics

Loved hearing about more FIRSTS for MS/Asobo/Partners/Community Creators:

  • Glider Database - All hand crafted Glider airports
  • New Glider nav, systems, planes.
  • VFR Obstacle Database. Over a million objects.
  • Incorporating Flight Aware data. 91% transponder accuracy of real-world traffic.

No mention of other SIMMING like: Fishing, Camping, Treasure Hunts. Expanding simming in Digital Twin. :slight_smile: I’ve got the Campout Utility and now need something for my avatar to do beside sit there, drink Coors and snap photos of critters. heh

And. Where is the MS GOLF multi-player DLC for MSFS? :slight_smile: “Get there!” :slight_smile:

Cheers & Best!
