Yes, so much for the theory we don't need aircraft add-ons anymore. 

That's always intentional IMO. Make them simple and 'close' enough for casuals on Xbox or Game Pass to hoon around with, but it's never going to be an option for us who craves FSLabs-level quality and complexity.....

It's interesting that SimConnect as well as the legacy flight model (If I heard that correctly in the video) will be supported. Turnaround times should be much faster for P3D developers.

I don’t understand the surprise. In all the time they’ve released Flight Sim products the default aircraft have always been so-so. Hence the release of the SDK to aid third party developers.

Well, to put it simply, they have shown a different A320 cockpit at first. And now this horrid thing. It's disgusting to look at. It's beyond simplicity. It looks like a freeware mod aircraft for GTA V

I always love the reasoning provided by our faithful and loyal customers to justify how quick or slow development and turnaround times will be.

The simple fact, however, is that until 3rd parties have more information, it's all conjecture and rumor.

Just don't read too much into it, please, as it will only be yourselves to disappoint.

It's in alpha. That means things change. It's not simplistic for the casual flyer. It will look great to them. What you want from Microsoft would effectively put thirs party developers out of business. Is that really what you want???

Apart from that the trailer also shows the 320 cockpit, and it does not look very good in my opinion. All the displays are wrong and incomplete. It is still WIP, so we need to wait to see what it will look like on release day. But so far, regarding the 320 in MSFS, I'm really not impressed.

It's funny cause as you can see on the first trailer the displays looked fine : 






















Let's not talk about the mainpanel model .
But hey it's in WIP, we all know it, I guess it's just funny to point stuff like that out 

[Sabine Meier]

so either the one in the trailer is an addon from another developer and the one in the dynamics video is their own variant.  but it is  an interesting difference.

Nah that's the exact same model, I believe they're the same but maybe not the same date footage, or for the beauty of the trailer they've just added some static textures for the display, cause if you look closely the ND isn't moving as the aircraft do.

Yea, I know. It's just that they had shown a different cockpit on the announcement trailer (which is the one that Hugo posted right above) and this current one looks nothing like it. Which then leads to another question: was it CGI at first? (the announcement trailer). But yea I do think it's just a placeholder with static textures atm which might or might not get better.

Or its something worked out with the official partnership with airbus?!  
Don´t you think they have a kind of "own simulation" for their development? Just keep calm and wait for the Alpha 1 to be released and first hands-on will be revealed and until we get more infos about 3rd party devs. They said on the X019 that they have personally talked now to around 60 devs - which, I hope and think - FSL is one of as they just have the best and immersive addon on the market.

I'll post what I said on avsim yesterday:

Partnership can mean litteraly everything. It can range from full support for developpement , from the plane geometry to the systems, and all the data you can think of. It can also mean a simple licensing to be able to use the company name and logo ingame.

It is by no mean a guarantee of quality.

Olá pessoal tudo jóia ?! Quer muito saber como fazer para dar uma dica para os criadores do simulador de vôo 2020. Abraço ae

[Timm Rehberg]

Let it snow

 

All we need is a FSL Airbus in MS FS2020  

[Manuel Schlachter]

Just the thought of likely one day having the FSL A320 in MS2020 makes me happy. 

[Artur Araripe]

Same! Can't wait! 

My screenshot folder will grow so big

Just don‘t tap the brakes too hard

Now that we have the release date of MFS2020, do we have any information from FSL ?

[Christoph Sebek]

Nope.

Not yet, as far as i know and the SDK doesn't seem to be finished yet.
But after all these pictures, videos and updates i've seen, it really seems not only to be THE simulator we´ve been waiting for but a great base for the future as well and i hope FsLabs will be able to develop aircraft addons for this sim.

I‘m sure they will be able and also do it. But it seems that MSFS requires a complete new development of aircraft addons, there is no „easy port“ possible. So when/if FSL releases for MSFS is probably simply a matter of (much) time.
