RE: E3 (Electronic Entertainment Expo)

Roland,in the light of the latest comments about MSTS from Microsoft I don't think that it will be a feature of the next E3-Expo ! Even if there were somebody working on it, it would be an unfinished, untested Program, not ready to be shown in May !O t t o

RE: E3 (Electronic Entertainment Expo)

Bob,I have asked MICROSOFT the question and if they don't come back pretty sharpish will ask BILL GATES himself in the Media !I am a programmer, albeit not concerned with Graphics but know enough about the complexity of programming such Software starting from scratch.There is no way Microsoft can come up with a NEW MSTS in time for the E3 in May and don't think that they would dare giving us another warmed up version of the current one !

I have normally avoided this forum because it is all speculation and "I wants". However a thought just occurred to me. Do you think it is possible that MS pulled all information on MSTS2 from their website(s) so as to be able to pull some kind of surprise presentation at E3. I agree that there is no way they could have it ready by then but they could do the same thing Kuju did and present a demo.Now look who is speculating. Cal Rasmussen

Hi Cal,
Pretty sure they are not that far along. They do still have a MSTS2 webpage, just is still older version2. More than a year away based on my info from several folks that have actual knowledge.
