Fs Labs - An update - what will happen next...

[Irishcurse 234]

Just looking forward to the P3D version. For the price I will delay a few days to see how others do with it. Whether there are FPS issues OOM's or anything like that. Not complaining about the price just that for that investment I want to know everything is good to go. If it needs a few tweaks by the developer over a few days or a couple of weeks I will wait impatiently lol. I am eager to get it though.....

What features will the non entertainment version posess over the entertainment version?

 

All Airbus simulations currently being sold are for hobbyist use, mostly used for entertainment, irrespective of the platform on which they run. The only simulator that is not hobbyist is the CAE A320 FULL MOTION FLIGHT SIMULATOR, but at $300 an hour that one is definitively non entertainment.:-)

As far as I understand from the interview is that it will have a full instructors station and more failures. Plus a full cockpit builders edition.

You must mean $3,000 / hr.

Pricing

 

We expect the price of the "first level" P3D A320-X to be approximately US$30-40 more than the FSX one - and this is what all FSX customers will have to pay to upgrade to it, while at the same time maintaining both licenses. FSLabs is not in the business of exchanging or revoking previously purchased licenses. If you owned the FSX version, you'll still own it after buying the upgrade for P3D.

It's because of things like this that you receive "the love, support and understanding it has so generously given our A320-X product" as you so eloquently put it. Unlike certain other developers who I won't name.

 

Kudos to you for that.

This is awesome.  Once the P3D will be out, I will plan to purchase this.  I like this company pricing strategy.  I am reading awesome posts about this addon.  Looking forward to read more experiences about it in the meantime

Yes, quite!

 

Will the P3d Airbus simulation have the full features of the functional real world A320 FMS? Or will it be another "adapted" version? How else can the price premium be justified?  In the end all simulator platforms share the same function, they are hobbyist in nature.

It's not about how an individual chooses to use the product. it's about the platform for which said product is sold for and what said platform requires in terms of licensing

I really hope you will not need to Pro version to use the VRInsight MCP (or the GoFlight for that matter).  Most people that have his are not cockpit builders.
