More for beginners then experienced users. As far as I know boxed owners will not have access to the full download, but of course full access to all the online content, all automatic updates etc. Hi Mathijs Can you confirm if you have either version if you have a choice of where to install the program files to? I thought that as it was a Microsoft Store product that it just went into a default folder?

Aerosoft Aerosoft Team [Inactive Account] 51562 Posted July 14, 2020 Author Aerosoft Share Posted July 14, 2020 The 'sim' part has indeed a fixed location as any MS Store product (that said you can move it afterwards, pretty clever stuff, Windows Store Apps got a undeserved bad reputation, the system is very solid these days, easily as good as Steam for example). The 'content' can be installed somewhere else to your choice. I run it from my home server actually where all my P3D aircraft and scenery is stored. With 10Gb networking and cheap SSD storage that is nearly as fast as storing it on my own SSD.

I know they also include Frankfurt but I wonder if they can beat your masterpiece. I hope there are much more to come from AS in any case. Another plus. Now you start from a higher base as well. Take Reunion for instance, always fun to begin with something good already then perfect it :).

Omar Al-Safi 60 Posted July 14, 2020 Share Posted July 14, 2020 Hi Mathis, Thank you for this awesome news. As others asked, I would like to get confirmation if the code included in the box will entitle us to own the fully digital download as well, e.g: in case I misplaced the DVDs, you can just download the full content from MS Store. If that is the case, I would definitely pre-order it, although my internet speed like 100mb but is very unstable, one day I get full speed and other day I get 20% of the speed.

Yep, in fact we believe that will be a major market. Not for the complex airliners, but if you see how fine the sim works with a standard Xbox controller we have good hopes.

What we will do is offer a cheapo DVD (USB3) on the shop we have good experiences with. I got one, under $20 and it works brilliantly. I see where your question comes from, but in the case double layer DVDs simply offer whopping lot of storage for low cost.

As you will understand, Microsoft has a large say in these matters. Some information has to come from them.
