If you want to buy Microsoft Flight Simulator like a normal person, you will be able to download it and play it without further ado. However, if you want to hold a box, you are going to need both hands because my god.
Aerosoft, the specialist company in simulators, has been hired by Microsoft to distribute physical copies of the game in Europe and, well look what this box is. But why does it take up so much space? Aerosoft say what The content of the boxed edition contains:
- The simulator code itself, which is quite small in size, but it is a required part of the simulator, obviously.
- The open world and the planes that deliver you Microsoft which depend of the version but occupy about 90 GB and son a required part of the simulator.
- Optional streaming content, which is an optional part of the simulator.
- And files from third parties, which they are totally optional.
Our DVDs contain ‘all’ part 2, also of the updates they will make Microsoft and Asobo between the time they are recorded and throw the DVDs. When you install it, the simulator will update all files immediately from servers, You will get the latest code for the simulator and all content will be updated. This is very much a cloud dependent simulator if you want use it to its full potential. Therefore, the boxed version makes it possible for people with a slower Internet connection to install the simulator. without downloading the ‘content’. Is the same simulator in every sense, 100% the same. The commercial version in box only offers you a nice box, a printed manual and about 90 GB you do not have to download. There is no difference between the sale boxed and the version that Microsoft that sells directly.
Taking into account that Aerosoft says the price of the box it will be “very close to the price you pay Microsoft ”, buy one of these instead of downloading the game could not be the worst of ideas, at least to say you have it. This Yes you PC still has a DVD drive.
