Will there be version 2 airports for FS9?

Saturn_29:
I know you guys will not make new airports for FS9, but will you guys make version2 of airports you already made for FS9?

virtuali:
Our last product for FS9 was KLAX, there will be no new FS9 products coming from us, or major updates of existing ones. We'll only issue maintenance upgrades for FS9, only to fix bugs and small issues or OS compatibility issues, but not scenery upgrades like new runways, new terminals, etc.

 :'( It has finally happened! The end of FS9. Sadly I have used FS9 since it first came out, I tried FSX and it just would run properly on my computer. Not even my new pc which I made sure had a quadcore processor. Then recently I updated my memory to 16mb and installed a dedicated 3TB internal hard drive just for video games. Then decided to give FSX another try and BAM that was the solution. FSX sp 2 resolved alot of the previous issues I had. The aircrafts looked more sharp and the frame rates were much better and the airports looked great. I got hooked and for the first time in over 12 years, I haven't played FS9 for a whole month :o!

In honesty it was easy to move from FS2002 to FS9 because the enhancements were just too great. It was harder to move on from FS2004 to FSX mainly because FS9 ran smoother than FSX. I dont mean to be ranting on your post. But I knew the day was eventually going to come when it would be time to retire FS9. Most scenery and aircraft designers are focusing on FSX now and sadly there is little interests all around for FS9. If your computer still runs FS9 better than FSX, I would stick with it and change nothing. But when you get a pc that can finally FSX you will get hooked just like me and then notice that your interests in FS9 will deminish with all the sounds and visuals in FSX!

Frank Lindberg:
Yes finally  ;) I wish that other developer will do the same. Drop FS9 and move on.

It should of happened like 2 years ago, but I guess we were all waiting to see how "Flight" would turn out, soon to find out it to be a failure.

We should be thanking FSDT for NOT developing for FS9, not only for these reasons: http://www.fsdreamteam.com/forum/index.php?topic=8498.msg69344#msg69344

But then, DX10 would not be compatible, and it really undermines the FSX version and what FSX can actually do, just to compensate for the very little % of FS9 users.

And I'm sure the FS9 users will use the 'ol excuse: "I don't have the money to buy a new system for FSX".

Computers have never been cheaper. This may of been the case when i5's or i7's came out, but getting a decent system doesn't cost much more than an average computer. (or one that you'd buy "For FS9")
