When should flight sim be brought out?

I don't think it should be time based, I think it should be based on when the advancing technology allows for meaningful upgrades to the program.

A two year minimum frequency would still be good...people invest too much time developing releases for the new product and there has to be allowances for the learning curve.

I agree with SilverFox. A time-minimum of 2-years is sufficient and sounds logical to me.

Besides, we developers sometime tend to take more than a year to finish a project. Well, most of us take about half a year, really.

Longer, as at the current state of affairs, there isn't a really big leap between them. For example, FS2002 & FS2004 are virtually the same.

Should be longer, as technology advances faster than my wallet.

[Rocket_Bird]

Long as possible.  My computer can only handle so much at one time...

[beaky]

Then there's al the time spent tweaking and fiddling to get it just right. And if one's add-ons are rendered obsolete... waaah!

[Bell206freak]

Every two years, with every other release sporting the latest technical advances to the simulation.
