On the bright side, we might get the full trailer tonight

You may want to take a read of the first paragraph at the provided link. It would only be more official if it had directly been said by Jorg.

Surely you mean under deliver and over promise?

Jorg in the last Q&A: āItāll be days, not weeksā
2 weeks later: āItās locked in for a release next weekā

You need to wait a few more days for a free scenery update to a sim that already has the most advanced and detailed worldwide scenery. An update that most other publishers would release as paid DLC. But is free. And you need to wait a few days for them to continue polishing said free update to further improve it.
The horror!
Iām amazed that all of these major updates are free and appreciate it. Need a few more days for polishing? No problem and thank you!

Correctly stated. And weāll see another Twitch with a āI donāt know what you mean? Or I donāt see this issueā
This is why a lot of us are frustrated. Is it the end of the world? No. Is this just a game? Yes. Are we continuously being over promised on things? Absolutely. Do we believe anything that Asobo says? Not really.

Hereās a definition of the word anticipate:
VERB
anticipated (past tense) Ā· anticipated (past participle)
regard as probable; expect or predict.
The link you provided actually says the anticipated (see above definition) date, which is not a given, absolute or guaranteed date. What Maddin91 said is correct, and the link you provided actually collaborates it.
Donāt shoot yourself in the other foot.

No one really is upset about the UK scenery. A lot of us care deeply that the premium aircraft are a joke, that there still hasnāt been any new airliners added, that a free mod community is making an airplane way better than the publisher has, that several basic things in a simulator still arenāt even developed (replay, ATC, AI, AI behaviors, etc). This is what weāre frustrated with because we all know that if the UK is delayed, after three times, then itās safe to say everything else promised is delayed. It just gets old, as others have said, this is definitely not the first time.

I prefer MSFS FFS
ā¦sure, we only paid Ā£120 each, + various add-on + investing in some high spec hardware (some of us at least) to actually make it work at a reasonable fps with a decent level of smoothness . What`s sad though is that one of the members here had to step in and fix or find a solution to the terrain spikes which were introduces by latest patch and promised will be fixed in days by the devs. A lot of people seem to forget that this is the third delay, sorry but not good enough service!

[ā¦] most advanced and detailed worldwide scenery.
Sorry, no, not most detailed, IMHO.
Airports missing because they are not in Bing maps?
Most detailed?
Seriously?
Most detailed would have been when google and bing maps have been used.

We hear your frustration that we can do better.
What we (the community team) are really asking for here: If we had a magical time machine, what could we have done better in this specific situation?

Delayed? Good. That means itāll get more polish.

I think for starters donāt tie your self to these Sim Update and World update time frames.
If something is ready ā¦ TEST it and TEST it again, then make an announcement that tomorrow the update is coming.
We are actively working on an update for UK and will be released soon.
In the meanwhile keep improving and releasing without being held to some weird time frame.
The sim keeps growing the people are happy (donāt break more than you fix) and you donāt have some unreasonable time crunch on your end.
My two cents.
Time lines work only if delivery is guaranteed.

Frankly, I am quite sure that you reported it as soon as you learned about the delay. So the main lesson should be for the project team or however itās called in the software world.
In terms of community team maybe it could have helped to come already with some explanations, context, etc. about why we get the info so late (this is in fact the main issue, not the delay itself) and also something to give us confidence that the next target date is for real. In these cases, transparency about failures really helps.

No, that means they cannot deliverā¦also, and keep promises !
Thank you.
