August 17, 20205 yr That's why the smart thing to do (if you're on the fence) is jut pay up $1 for the free month of gamepass, get the standard edition for "free" and then decide which you want to get.

This way people could have made an informed decision on what option to purchase. You can make an informed decision: It'll either be a little bit more, or the same price, to upgrade. It certainly won't be less. So if you want the extra stuff, get the version which has it. Alan Bradbury Check out my youtube flight sim videos: Here

As you say let's hope the download is a smooth untroubled road for us. I have been fortunate to have been in the Alpha and here in AU/NZ we did experience some glitches with downloads. Hopefully that is all sorted now. Only a little over 8.5 hrs and I will be be able to see first hand. I guess I will stay up until midnight to hit the button and hopefully tomorrow morning when I get up it will be there ready to go.

August 17, 20205 yr That's more expensive then I thought. So that would be 59$ + 84,99 = 143.99$ for the Premium Deluxe Upgrade?

August 17, 20205 yr Moderator I'm astonished that there is only a $5 difference between the "Deluxe" and "Premium Deluxe" upgrades! That is just weird... 😵 Fr. Bill AOPA Member: 07141481 AARP Member: 3209010556 Avsim Board of Directors | Avsim Forums Moderator

To be fair, unless you are desperate for a 787, it's kind of hard to justify the super sexy versions. Alan Bradbury Check out my youtube flight sim videos: Here
