No teasing this time (damn!)
« on: February 02, 2010, 08:08:09 PM »
Dear friends,

This time I will (sadly) break with the "teasing tradition" and go straight to the point:

1. The next pack will be a Mission Pack - no brainer of course.

2. It will definitely contain STS-130 :) (IMHO, another no-brainer). This means that the release date is wholly dependent on NASA and the STS-130 schedule. This also means that the STS-130 pack will be available sometimes during March, not February (which is too short anyway - LOL).

3. The Mission Pack will also add a few cool additions, that we'll keep for now under wraps (couldn't resist that, sorry <g>)

4. Don't worry - this "break" is fully scheduled for the development of the next SSM version, unofficially named "SSM2010", and initial reports show great results in the (beep!) area (couldn't resist that one either - LOL)

We will be coming with more information abut the "SSM2010" as we move on.

Have a great time chewing on this one!

Being straight to the point has it's advantages! You still got some teasing in there. STS-130.....how awesome! I'm looking forward to watching the real thing but really excited to simulate it later....once everyone is back safe and sound.

Maybe you could start some SSM2010 teases? It would be interesting to know what's coming!

I'm fondly remembering all the non-ISS missions that the Shuttle used to do.

I was sure that the next mission would be STS 130...good job guys, no hurry, we will wait until it will be ready...
ps i'm too curious for the new features of SSM 2010, but for now it's a loooooooooooong way

A break from teasing, surely that's one of the biggest teases in itself :) Looking forward to STS-130.

Just out of curiosity, is SSM2010 going to be multi-platform?

Personally, I think ipod connectivity should be in SSM2010 ;)

;D

But only within the Shuttle, since Shuttle crews are not allowed to take them along to the ISS ;)

I will watch STS-130 from my balcony in Cocoa Beach. Godspeed to them for a great mission and safe return. It will be great to then do the sim mission after that. Thanks!

Guys, if you read carefully, we did say "sometimes during March".

Besides, you can't seriously expect us to churn a new mission so close to "wheels stopped", especially while also developing SSM2010. Sheessh!
