May 30, 20179 yr Paid for but unable to download. Cant get download page after repeated attempts. Will try early tomorrow. Regards Howard H D Isaacs
May 30, 20179 yr Author At first, quite a few of us got to the download page but couldn't get any further. I just logged in again with my details on the download page, and then it worked on the second try. That was about 20 minutes ago, the download is progressing smoothly.

May 30, 20179 yr Congrats guys, we killed their servers...again! This makes me happy,it means they are selling well! :) Sadly, I'll have to wait a month to be able to afford this beautiful proverbial puppy.

Flying this sim in half an hour versus tomorrow is not such a big deal logically, but damn it if it isn't fun getting into the buzz of a new release. I haven't sat around refreshing a sale page som much since the NGX release, that was 2011. Good times!

May 30, 20179 yr Finally managed to get to the download. Very patient but now downloading at about 20MB/s should not take too long to get it. I guess there might be bigger sales this time because of more people like me that makes the jump because of the 64 bits. I4ve waited with FSX till v4 ;) Aurelien Vandoorine

I haven't sat around refreshing a sale page som much since the NGX release, that was 2011. Good times! Me too! Although I'll have to contend in perusing the SDK for the time being. I want to see what else they added there, or changed since many developers praised the v4 SDK. The last time, for me, was when Star Trek Online was released, and that was in 2010!

Yeah well I had planned to make the switch but I wanted to wait v4 to know for sure the addons that would be compatible or not, as my FSX was running well I had no real urge to change ;) But now that I can well here I am :p Aurelien Vandoorine
May 30, 20179 yr Well, so much for waiting until the promised 11:00 A.M. Just went to their site, and "the server has stopped responding." James David Walley Ryzen 7 7700X, 32 GB, RTX 3080
