In case of a new PC can you simply redownload your purchases from the store alike steam? Never bought anything in the store, thanks.

Interesting. Might just be an oversight or typo.. but maybe they have optimized it differently? I can’t think why they would but it is an interesting thought. 

That's been up there since pre-order opened and I think someone would have noticed the oversight and removed it, or included the phrase in other editions. People in these forums have speculated that MSFS2020 started to become dumbed down when Xbox compatibility happened.

I'm wondering if the Xbox console users can buy any version of the new MSFS2024 or if they're locked into the Standard Edition. Or looking from a different direction, should PC users avoid the Standard Edition because it's the Xbox version with its known limitations? Maybe this will become evident once MSFS2024 releases but for me it's another reason to wait.

Only once? So I'll stick to Steam.

my post was ambigous, I meant once as in "once ... logged in" and not "download ... once". You can install it thousand time. after all you own that license. if that helps 🙂

I wanted the standard edition, but could get the Premium Deluxe version from CDKeys for €89. So decided to go for that one instead 🙂

Are they thrustworthy? I've had bought the deluxe version via Gamesplanet for 118 Euro. I haven't redeemed the code yet, so I could just cancel it and buy it from cdkeys? Would that work well?

No, it doesn't I was just tempted to buy the aviator edition instead since otherwise it's just too expensive. I just did some research CDkeys seems to be grey zone, so it's fine the online shop I bought it from is authorized. I really can't wait having the new sim finally on my pc.

I have used cdkeys many times in the past as well with no problem. I don't know what the legality is though. It has always been trustworthy for me.

You'll be able to buy the aircraft individually after launch. We don't know about the airports.

so if you're on the fence maybe wait until the prices are known.
