RI_Red Posted May 6, 2022 Share Posted May 6, 2022 So, what do you all think the price range will be on this? Anyone hear any rumors that could be close to truth? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herc79 Posted May 7, 2022 Share Posted May 7, 2022 Price? Me, I have no idea. I do know we'll all know for sure May 9th. Yep, this Monday! The CEO just posted at the PMDG forums that the public will be flying it "next week"!!!! https://forum.pmdg.com/forum/main-forum/general-discussion-news-and-announcements/175587-07may22-pmdg-737-700-release-schedule-announcement Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RI_Red Posted May 7, 2022 Author Share Posted May 7, 2022 Not if it's ridiculously priced like they're prior stuff, that's for sure!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herc79 Posted May 8, 2022 Share Posted May 8, 2022 They DID say it would be less expensive, that we'd likely be happy with the pricing... whatever that means!! Remember, this wasn't pumped out in a month. Rather, 24 months (or thereabouts) of raw development time was needed for this one. I mean, generally speaking if you get more quality, you generally pay more than for a fly-by... but in FS world that's just not always the case... case in point $15 for the CS C-130, that would be rejected by most if it were freeware... I think it'll be $30 for the first variant you buy, then an additional $10 for the rest of the variants. So if you just want one, the $30 is all you pay. Want a 600, 700, 800 and 900, then it'll be $60. But it could be vastly different than my quarter-assed guess!! Or maybe it's $20 for each variant. So $80 for all four variants, but only $40 if you just want two, and $20 if you can just afford one. I dunno!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RI_Red Posted May 8, 2022 Author Share Posted May 8, 2022 Initially, it will be $69.99. Thank you - I read that earlier tonight too. Not so bank breaking as I thought it were going to be. Phew! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herc79 Posted May 9, 2022 Share Posted May 9, 2022 Hmm, well that's ok for a top product. Not sure about the pricing for additional variants though... guess we'll have to wait and see!! One thing is, if you've bought some PMDG products in past, you MIGHT have a special credit on your account! Some people bought so much product in the past, that the latest 737 for MSFS is free and bit of credit remaining, so go check if you have bought their products in the past!!

tirith63 Posted May 9, 2022 Share Posted May 9, 2022 It shows on their main site page now, but for some reason, you still can't purchase it yet. Refresh...refresh...refresh... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tirith63 Posted May 9, 2022 Share Posted May 9, 2022 (edited) There it is! Purchased and waiting on download links. It was, in fact, $69.99. However, the PMDG site is so overloaded I can't download it. Suppose I'll wait until tomorrow. I'm one bummed out virtual pilot.

tirith63 Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 Finally able to download. The license agreement is pretty draconian - almost afraid to use it. Might be my last product from them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingnorris Posted May 12, 2022 Share Posted May 12, 2022 So anybody pick this beauty up yet? Lots of review vids on YouTube including by real pilots. Seems incredibly difficult for a beginner like myself so I’m currently passing on this.

Elvensmith Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 Finally able to download. The license agreement is pretty draconian - almost afraid to use it. Might be my last product from them. Can you elaborate? I'm truly on the fence about this. The initial price is not as bad as first thought but still going to have issues getting that by the wife. Then there's the whole save/load game issues still plaguing MSFS which make long flights unpredictable. Might wait and see if it turns up in the Marketplace or via Steam as in the case of the latter I can buy a couple of £20 gift cards from my cash stash and the missus will never know! Vern.
