Am I the only one who misses a release will be ready in 3 - 4 weeks :-)

When I was younger and had lots of free to to play games the next release after the official ones ended being always 3 - 4 weeks (a running joke) was an eternity. Today i stumbled across a post on Reddit Popular about BMS 4.38 screenshots and realised that i had downloaded but not yet installed 4.37 or the updates as i just haven’t had time. At this rate by the time I do 4.38 will be out. So whos with me bring back 3 - 4 weeks that way i may get to install and takeoff before a new version is out
Joking of course but I do look forward to eventually taking it for a spin when time allows. At this point I am going to have a massive learning curve again as its been quite a while since I’ve had any real flight time. If someone told me F4 would still be on my PC now when I bought it when it first came out I wouldn’t have believed them. Great work BMS team (and those who came before).

@Opener Yep, in some ways And 4.38 is probably well into next year, so "3-4 week"s for sure. But with 4.35 and on, I believe BMS has had some 3-4 week tempo for real on releases which is part of the reason they are taking a little longer with 4.37u3. But definitely appreciate their hard work and them being more open with update progress reports (thanks @MaxWaldorf @Seifer and others)! I think part of the reason I always dreaded the old 3-4 weeks is that we had the IP pulled so many times (back to 1.08 even…) and you could be wishing for an update that may never come. Now with the dedication of BMS and the blessing of now MicroProse, it’s very comforting to know that the wait will be worth it and it will actually get here someday!

@Opener sorry, the message at the beginning made me think of a song…When I was young
I’d listen to the radio
Waitin’ for my favorite songs…it`s the classic old song.

I agree, just getting the time to fly these days is few and far between, just got back into F4 after a long break just when you seem to be getting somewhere there’s a long break and you’re having to start again!
Also yes after buying the original all those years ago wouldn’t have thought it would still be going strong, amazing! -
@Opener
I think that the 3 - 4 weeks is still the defacto, at least it was 3 - 4 weeks ago!
When your waiting it sems like a lifetime, after it happens it seems like yesterday!It will be more than worth it - it alway is.
