Update on the ORD V2?

Since we want for the new KORD to be the final word on that airport, and for the next real-world runway update, we don't want to do it again from scratch, we intend to make it as future proof as possible, so it will be a true ( the only one ) 100% PBR product, made for the ground up for a PBR sim, which means it won't work with anything less than P3D 4.4, and this is clearly causing a delay.
In addition to that, we are also working on a major update for GSX, which will update lots of the GSX objects to PBR (100% of the Jetways are being remade), which will also increase the visual quality of many stock objects in GSX which were starting to show their age, and this is causing an additional delay to KORD but, as explained so many times when replying to delays of new products, we ALWAYS give priority to updating products that are already out, in respect to users that paid for them, before releasing new products.

Does this mean you are now planning to release it once the final construction is done at ORD?

No, that will take at least to years, only for the next step, which will have a construction run from 2019 to 2012, and then another step in 2023/2024 so, we'll release it as it is now, before the next construction step will begin.
Zimmerbz:
Got it. Thanks!

While I understand all of it, it still sucks. Is it going to be at least in the first half of the year or later? You know this is currently THE most anticipated add-on out there, right? ;)

That's precisely the reason why we are not rushing it. It will be out when it's ready, and you wouldn't probably want it before it is.
