Can someone clarify. So you don't need to own the $30 200ER to buy the $20 300ER?

Correct.
I'm sure that's gonna trigger the crowd who bought the -200 "Base pack"....or as it was implied as that is how it's been sold before.
Of course this is MSFS and just the shell of the aircraft, but I bet those who "thought" they needed the -200 as a pathway to get the -300, and really wanted only the -300 and were hoping you pay $30 for the "base pack" and maybe $10 for the -300 "expansion" would be the way to go.

Sad we only now know that if someone only wanted the -300 all along....and they picked up the -200 in anticipation of needed it to get to the -300, and gave CS some extra support along the way, are now thinking he sure could have announced that on the initial -200 release that the -300 was going to be a stand-alone...and $10 cheaper at that!  :o

Well that's just immoral business practice. As a buyer of the 200ER I'm insulted.

First time poster,

but was compelled to do so because of this business practice. For the avoidance of doubt you've effectively price gouged those who people who were CS fans, and purchased the -200. Your most loyal customer base.

I purchased the -200 after the substancial negative press recieved as I understood the offering and was content to spend the money to have a new basic model in the sim.

Im sure there are many who like me did the same for the -200 and may well do it again for the -300, however this business practice in my opinion is reprehensible and will ultimately only alianate your own customer base.

Extremely dissapointed.

I too was insulted by that deal, i'm a big B777 fan and just to see this bird in MSFS is something else.
They should make up for this, those who bought the 200ER expansion will get the Freighter version for free.

I'm also insulted, this is horrible business practice, I had high hopes for the -300ER
