General Pre-Release Discussion

I am looking forward to being able to get some 737-300s, probably end up getting a lot of them.

Can’t forget the New Generation variants as well - especially the B736 & B737, looking forward to seeing them in the game

Hopefully will have a snazzy holiday airport in the Med to deposit a ton of Jet2 and Thomson 733’s at.

736 is the one I’m most looking forward to. Pair it up with the A318.

Madeira would be lovely for that

Yup or Tenerife South, Lanzarote, PMI, Faro or somewhere in Greece

100% this :index_pointing_up: it’s basically two airports with LATAM airlines, needed somewhere different like Vancouver or somewhere else. I’m doing SCL now, whist it has more stands then GRU and having same airline again isn’t great but saying that prefer it to GRU.

We figured out that its better to start from scratch, we learn with every new model and we can apply the new skills. The only thing we use is the graphics for the liveries in some cases.

Oef that sounds like quite the task
It would fix a lot of models with slight disproportions I guess
But as always thanks for the clarification

GRU and SCL would be massively improved with TAM and LAN additions in full. Would give a lot more diversity. There are the additional LCC carriers but again there’s a lot of overlap there and it does feel like you’re doing the same airport again, though SCL is a lot nicer an airport to grind than GRU is. Would love Vancouver or Calgary addition, plenty of Air Canada and WestJet action amongst others and would be a pleasant change to the same airlines again and again.

Should get some African airlines with the 737s right?

Almost certainly, yes

Is there going to be any update soon? Even like a small 3.4.1 or something? Intrigued to see what is, probably just bug fixes?

3.4.1 will definitely be the next update, but so far the only thing known for sure to be coming in it is a minor bug fix. Funnily enough, as you sent that I was updating the Future guide to include that haha.

Also worthwhile noting that when the potential future 757 liveries were mentioned, ERJ liveries were also included so might see more of them.

Makes no sense to add it as it looks similar to the A320-200 with the exception of different winglets (can be modified) and is not in service anymore (last one was withdrawn in 2016)

You guys know what I just realized? The devs release the ā€œbiggest airport in the the gameā€ every other year! Just hear me out: December 2019, IAD. December 2021, LEJ(which is bigger than MCT if you don’t count the expanded terminal which doesn’t exist in real life yet). December 2023, LHR, and December 2025 is finally HKG. While of course, I could be on to absolutely nothing, but maybe, just maybe… I could use this information to figure out that the next ā€œbiggest airportā€ will release in DECEMBER 2027!!!

I rest my case.

My guess is it’s not a hard and fast thing but rather as the tech improves and as players get bored of small to midsized releases they add a large one, and that has just happened to be every two years. The December thing is I think just because while AIRPORTS don’t follow a pattern, RELEASES generally do and there’s always a major one in December, usually for Christmas.

My money is on ATL by 2029, there’s nothing bigger than that and there has to be something in between that and HKG

Yeah, think 2 more US airports will be added, could see DEN or SEA, but JFK would be very popular. Love ATL, move my main hub there lol
