davidc2 Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 I purchased the cheaper version of the sim. If I wanted to go to the $120 version, do I pay the $120 or an upgrade of $60?

g7rta Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 Hi David, I don’t know the exact price for upgrading but it’s certainly not the full $120 Regards Steve Intel I9-13900K - Gigabyte Z790 Aorus Elite AX - 64Gb DDR5 5600Mhz - Asus RTX4090 ROG STRIX 24GB 3x 43” Panasonic 4k TVs - Corsair RMx 1200W PSU - 2 x 2TB M.2, 2 x 4TB SATA III and 1 x 4TB M.2 SSDs.

davidc2 Posted October 24, 2020 Author Share Posted October 24, 2020 Thanks Steve. After making this post, I went to Amazon (where I got the first one), and tried to see how much the Deluxe and Premium would cost, they are BOTH unavailable. There digital downloads, how can they be unavailable, unless once you bought one version, you can't upgrade??

g7rta Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 (edited) I went straight for the premium deluxe from day one, but from what I’ve read you can certainly upgrade. Have you tried the Microsoft store? Maybe MS have put a stop to Amazon from selling it? You might even be able to upgrade via the sim’s own marketplace. Regards Steve Edit: yes, the upgrades are listed in the marketplace :) Edited October 24, 2020 by g7rta Intel I9-13900K - Gigabyte Z790 Aorus Elite AX - 64Gb DDR5 5600Mhz - Asus RTX4090 ROG STRIX 24GB 3x 43” Panasonic 4k TVs - Corsair RMx 1200W PSU - 2 x 2TB M.2, 2 x 4TB SATA III and 1 x 4TB M.2 SSDs.

g7rta Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 $120?? I hope you didn’t buy it! That doesn't sound like the upgrade to me. Have you looked in the sim’s marketplace?

Unless you really want one of the additional aircraft or airports right now, my guess is there will be a sale sooner or later you could wait for. Maybe not quite as good as the infamous Steam sales, but most games in the Microsoft Store, including upgrades and DLC, go on sale eventually.
