The 2 PB number refers to the raw data they start with to generate the scenery, not the final output that will be streamed to end users. So while the final amount of scenery data will be quite large, it won't be measured in petabytes.
Glad to hear(read?) that; but then, if that was the real number, who could play that game? Nuclear engineers hacking the supercalculators managing the reactor?

If you're good at deflection shooting (and lucky), it's possible to catch Me-262s in flight, you're not getting ideal firing solutions on them but you can spray them while they fly by. Fortunately enough, they're rather fragile, and even a couple .50 hits will bring them down.

That's what I was going to say, these clouds look too well defined, too clean, while in real life, they're blurrier, as if you were looking at these pictures with your eyes focused on another distance. Still, they're leagues above everything I've seen in a game so far!

I mean, these sorts of altitudes aren't irrealistic, the MiG-25 has climbed up to 120k+ feet and regularily conducted recon missions at ridiculously high altitudes over Israel and Pakistan, so I don't see why we couldn't climb that high.

Looks like my computer will do the trick, and I'll be between the recommended and optimal configs, on top of that! That's a relief, I'd have been quite annoyed if my recently bought computer wouldn't cut it.

I'm not the original author of the question, but I had a similar issue when I downloaded the game and downloading that fixed it.

Maybe I'm getting a little older too, I'm 67 yr. I've been simming (every day)ever since 5 1/2 disk-days.
However never had the hardware that could fly the released new versions when they were released.
Only this year I finally...... had saved the $$ to buy a FSX capable machine. So all my sim-life I've
been waging war with my pc's and my software to at least show something of a descent visual presentation. Now I have FSX SE . all maxed (except traffic and filtering 50%) I have constant
30fps (however DX10 unable to select) I've said all my life: never no way will I ever try to edit the registry, then came UTX (re)install problem due to remaining traces of a former and 'deleted' FSX boxed
edition in the WIN10 registry. For 2 weeks I studied hundreds of Forum posts on this subject.
I wrote sort of checklist how to read the registry and which lines to follow. And after 2 weeks with
lots of sweat on my forehead I managed to change some Items in the registry and UTX is now
working perfectly. Just google your question, change a word every time, you will find hundreds if
not more pages and posts giving advice and clues where to go with your SIM Question.
One thing I learned: never expect more from the SIM then the money you put into it.
My system: Win10 I7-6700k GTX1050TI4GB 16DDR4 SSD 500gb
My SIM : C:////FSX-SE, Flyaway Mesh, UTX USA,CAN,AK,EUR,TAC , FSceneX
I know I'm 14 yrs behind with FSX but I'm catching up every day and I'm enjoying the learning
process every minute. If you need help with the registry , post it.
regards Peter (pic from FS9/ with LAGO FSSE I have a long long way to go to learn how to add
objects in FSX, something with ADE , I'm not there yet)

Glad to see I'm not the only one finally discovering FSX because I could get a decent computer only now! I mean, for the last 14 years, I've either been finishing my studies, working like a donkey to get my then-fiancée and I a decent situation, then dealing with toddlers, the time (and money) they need... and only now could I get the powerful PC I needed to play it (and DCS) to its full extent, and reap the fruit of my labour!
I just hope I'll be able to upgrade it (if needed) to play the next Microsoft Flight Simulator...

Oh, okay, that makes sense then. So, you get a "lite" version that's permanently installed on your hard drive, and if you're online when playing, you get the HD version? That's actually pretty smart, and allows people to play with good graphics without requiring them to invest so much in their computer that they could have taken flying lessons and bought a small plane with that money!
Still, I do think I'll be building a state-of-the-art, competition-worthy PC by next year, I've recently gotten my hands on a great gaming laptop but it remains a laptop, and if things go the way I want them to go, I should be able to get some of this real estate in Greece and spend most of the year there, with enough place for a dedicated playing room with a desktop computer, which beats playing on a laptop on your eating/working/hobby table in a flat.
