Which Version of MS2020 Would You Buy?

[blanston12]

Ben is correct, its 40 'enhanced' airports, 20k to 80k standard airports.

I think in your poll you could have combined 'no purchase' with 'will not purchase' into one category.

At the risk of appearing pedantic can we talk in terms of editions rather than versions please (and edit the thread title to reflect this). The two terms mean distinctly different things

I'm still sitting on the fence, Edition wise (and haven't voted). I don't fly airliners (other than BAC 1-11 and HS 748! ) and avoid large (i.e. international) airports. I spend the majority of my time in:

• fast jets (the more Classic and British the better and esp. from retro carriers and retro military airfields)

• helicopters (in the weeds or out at sea)

• STOL (esp. high-wing tail-draggers from GA airfields or unlicensed airstrips, the shorter the better)

The first two don't [currently] feature in any edition! The last does in the Standard Edition. A lot (though not all) of the extras in the Deluxe and especially the Premium Edition appears to cater more for those who like to fly airliners from international hubs.

That said, I believe a lot of the extra content is provided by 3rd party commercial developers (Heathrow is a probably a good example). If one considers a good quality international airport is worth ~£30 (based on Aerosoft's Mega Airport Professional series) and you get 5 more of these in the Premium Edition than the Deluxe for just £30 extra you're getting a bargain!

BTW, if there is no VR support at initial release I shall be upset (but sadly not surprised)

I decided to create a Google Map to illustrate the locations of the bespoke hand-crafted airfields by Edition:

I'd appreciate feedback

It'd also be great if Admins could allow me to embed the map please

I just pre-ordered it and apparently will get it a day early on Aug 17th !

I just edited my map to include labels. If anyone able to confirm they can see them please? Ta.

Yes I can see them very nicely!

Very nice. Makes it easy to see what you get.

I've only just read this topic.
I am, as usual, confused.
What's the difference between 3 people who are "No Purchase", and the brave one who isn't going to buy, either?

Think it was a typo Mike, but if you edit it, it resets everything back to zero, so it was easier to leave it as was and add the two together.

I've pre-ordered the premium edition. Now I've just got to find enough disk space.
