Sooooo... when Gsx coming out?
ottoramsaig:
For the FSDream to announce a release date for 2011 and still have not released it yet (23 days late) is somewhat irresponsible. I had some money earmarked for this product as part of my reward to myself for giving everyone else a decent Christmas. GSX was going to be my Christmas gift I have patiently waited since YOUR announcement on release dates. All I see are folks trying to get information and handed the same old lines from other “Customers” . Poor Business missing a deadline.
Please: I don't need comments about betta testing or "it will be released when ready" (Really?)
Seems like it is nothing more than a publicity stunt. I would never give one of my customers a dilivery date and still have them wait 23 days.

This date was announced in March 2011, 10 months ago , you can't except it being very precise it. Release dates more exact are being missed by companies much larger than we are, all the time.

On the contrary, we believe that having missed it by JUST 23 days (or even a month) to be very good, considering that in 10 months, many things change, users suggests new features, unexpected bugs comes out, new 3rd party product we need to interface with come out, etc.
An easy example: we added specific support for several 3rd party airplanes that use non-standard doors commands, which was something we realized it was needed only very recently, while testing.

I find the usage of double quotes around "Customers" a bit offensive to other fellow customers, that are just as legit in their opinions as you are. Or, you are labeling them as somewhat fake or not proper customers, just because they don't agree with your view ?

So, you'd rather prefer something like "We'll release it in its current state, to paying customers that will act as paying testers" ?

Which is why we never gave an exact deliver date, but a general time frame, which couldn't be as vague as it was.
Some usually say "4th quarter", and then usuall miss by a couple of months, "in 2011" it's even more generic than specifying a quarter, it was just wrong to read it as "absolutely before Dec. 31th 2011", which would have been really impossible to anticipate, in March 2011 when we released the first video.
I'll repeat it again, the product will be released when it's finished and properly tested, not before.

All you've been told officially is that GSX is in beta testing and will be released when it's ready, nothing was said about next week or the week after. When it's ready!
