Hawaiian Adventure Pack - 1600 Microsoft Points ($20 USD).
Maule M-7-260C - 1200 Microsoft Points ($15 USD).
North American P-51 Mustang (no VC) - 640 Microsoft Points ($8 USD).
Total (just for addons available at release): $43 USD.
As opposed to FSX (Deluxe & Acceleration), with 23 aircraft, 107 missions, the whole world, and countless additional 3rd party addons, all at the price of $30 USD, I think the choice is clear.

I guess I donīt get it, but if this is the future of the gaming model I donīt think Ill be buying any more.. What happened to the good buy it, install it, play it. I donīt want to connect to a market place, I donīt want to have to download everything separately. I am against pirating games but this is the kind of thing that causes it...

I tried it in the FSX demo and there basically you would start flying over some kind of weird void. Like the whole world was basically there in a technical sense but it was just one giant round sphere with nothing on it (except for hawaii and some water around it).

Yes, I guess you'll just see some really low-res scenery of the rest of the world.
By the way, since the map is limited and there isn't any fast aircraft, it would take a long time to reach USA from Hawaii.

I didn't buy anything...I was a beta tester and because I was apparently one of their top contributors, I received all the DLC content for free for the release version. (all of Hawaii, RV-6A, Maule M7, and P-51) All of it is outstanding, especially the Maule M7. The P-51 is my least favorite...it doesn't have a VC, so I wouldn't bother getting it. But All of Hawaii and the Maule are a must if you really do enjoy what comes free.
PS: To all those wondering why I haven't posted here: Well, I'm not sure why. I haven't been able to get FSW to load for the past few months. I must have been banned or something, even though I didn't even do anything to cause it? (If I did, I'd appreciate a moderator PM'ing me to explain why)

Yes, because all of that extremely well blended photoreal ground around all airports and airstrips along with many land marks are auto-generated...

and if you're thinking it's not a big deal... it is. first off, not having it modeled in a plane you paid for is fine... if it was noted and also not modeled. but considering there is no information about what is included... (no information anywhere.. about anything really) most ppl would assume it has one. the autopilot is also modeled in the plane.. with buttons... that don't function. would anyone be happy with this?
second and especially for the maule, autopilot is a very important feature in real life. being used mostly in the bush for long distance flights in many lousy and low visibility conditions.. autopilot is a must have. a good bush pilot won't touch a plane without one.
