I've never experienced this with any other pre order game that promised content either before or once the game was released. Bravo! Did you look in MSFS2020's Content Manager and tick the box for 'Uninstalled' add-ons ? Surely not everybody was kung fu fighting. https://rationalwiki.org

October 13, 20241 yr Steam version here too and I haven't received mine either after pre-ordering around two weeks ago. I can't be bothered raising a zendesk ticket for something I'll get in a month's time and probably only fly a few times anyway. Mildly disappointing but not enough to request a refund for a game I'll be getting anyway. 9800X3D | 4090 | 64GB | 2+1TB NVME | 2TB SSD | 2TB HDD | 85/50/43” TVs | Quest 3 | DOF H3 Motion Rig | Buttkicker | T.16000M Flight Kit MSFS @ 4K Ultra DLSS Performance FG 80 FPS | VR VDXR Godlike 80Hz SSW | MSFS VR DLSS Quality, Ultra Preset - Windows 11 Acer Nitro 5 | i5-11400H | RTX 3060 6 GB | 32GB DDR4 | 15.6" FHD IPS 144Hz | 2 x 512 GB SSD | Windows 11
October 14, 20241 yr Author I have managed to capture a video clip of my new CL-415 making a water drop, from a custom camera located below and aft of the plane. With no known keybind to open the drop doors, this wasn't easy to do, but I managed to catch all but about the first 1/2 second of the drop. It's a pretty good visual effect, considering that the CL-415 isn't a native MSFS-2020 plane. I can't wait to get MSFS2024 next month, but my enthusiasm is also somewhat dimmed by memories of 4 years ago, when we all struggled for months on end with the seemingly never-ending memory faults and Crash-To-Desktop bugs that plagued the initial release of MSFS2020. Being an early adopter of almost any software nowadays seems to mean that you are an unpaid beta tester for at least the first few months. Anyway, this CL-415 is a fun airplane to fly, about as fast as the Grumman Goose, and it's easier to land because it's got tricycle gear and thus won't ground-loop like the Goose does on occasion. The surface textures are stunningly detailed, both inside and out.
October 14, 20241 yr I pre-ordered FS2024 on Steam and did not receive it, but about 2 days after I submitted the Zendesk ticket, it was added to my account under Content Manager - Not Installed (1) 7800X3D | 2x32 GB DDR5-6000 CL32 | RTX 5080 | Alienware OLED 34" | 1 Gbps fiber
October 15, 20241 yr well I finally got mine yesterday - as I said previously I ordered on the first day of release - now all I gotta do is try & judge my height above the water to be able to land it nicely - fell down badly last night because I couldn't judge the height above the water in a still harbour - but will persevere until I get it right😉 Rattso Cooler Master Cosmos 700M - MSI Godlike X (Devillike!!) - AMDD Ryzen 9 9950X3D (water cooled) - 128gb Corsair Vengeance 5200 D5 - ASUS ROG Astral GeForce RTX 5090 Liquid OC GDDR7 32GB - EVGA 2000W P/S - Creative AE-7 - intel Optane 500gb - 3x 2tb M2 SSDs - 2x 2tb Samsung EVO SSDs - 1x Hybrid 2tb HDD - Brunner CLS-63E Joystick - Honeycombe Bravo quadrant - Brunner CLS-B rudder pedals - Samsung Odessey Ark 55" - G9 49" monitor

October 17, 20241 yr Hi, Which is the advantage of pre-ordering? I mean... apart from new CL-415. Is there a delay if you buy it on November 19th? Regards Edited October 17, 20241 yr by John Fields

So I received my Steam pre-order refund quite a while ago (10+ days ago?), and just before the weekend I received the CL-415 LOL. Although I downloaded it, I haven't even used it yet. Probably won't either. I will be buying FS24 but no need in pre-ordering and giving my money sooner 😄

October 21, 20241 yr I would have thought that, along with pre-ordering, you would be allowed to pre-install too, with actual activation on the 19th as scheduled. It would save a lot of server load, come the big day. Surely not everybody was kung fu fighting. https://rationalwiki.org
