Is Asobo fixing KDEN, an airport part of the Premium edition of MSFS, or is it HOPELESS?

Asobo did a very nice job with KDEN which is part of why I bought the Premium package as that is my home area, and at release it was fine but somewhere along the way heinous elevation defects destroyed their work. Are they ever going to fix this? I’ve zendesked it along w/ screenshots, it’s marked as “resolved” in the zendesk submission but that’s patently false. I see FlightBeam keeps their version fully priced at $19.99 presumably to catch people miffed at Asobo for not following up on this. I’m not paying $19.99 for something I already paid for in the Premium edition. Asobo! Please come on!

Topic moved from General Discussion.

I have seen their products on sale… Just be patient.

That said, it’s worth the extra cost. I agree $20 is a little steep for any airport.

I’d much rather Asobo fix what they created. What’s your sense of how FB KDEN performs compared to Asobo version?

i have no noticeable drop in performance. Compared to some other payware airports, the Flightbeam stuff runs really well (I also have IAD)

Of course results may vary.

Your next best chance for a fix is the coming Sim Update in August, though I wouldn’t be surprised if this problem continued beyond it. They take way too long to make these types of fixes.

I’d just like to know IF they’re going to fix it. I have patience if there’s an end point in view but if FB puts it on a decent sale I probably will buy it.

Flightbeam’s having a Memorial Day sale right now (through the 31st) and KDEN is now $13.99:

I also have the Premium MSFS and I’m not sure how I feel about buying this from Flightbeam, but I have their NZ airports and they’re quite nice.

I have most airports from flightbeam and they are the best. I would not hesitate to buy from them and have your problems fixed.

Well, I’ll add my advice quite similarily to the others: Put your deluxe purchase ad acta as “lesson learned” and move on, get the really good airports you want, pay for them, Flightbeam ask for really fair prices and are absolutely stunning quality.

I payed the full price as well and don’t use any of that content anymore, neither planes nor airports. Wasted money but it is what it is. I’ll have to drive a little more economically for a while to get the money back in :sweat_smile:

No issues with purchasing from FlightBeam, great airports.

As for Asobo’s KDEN (or any of their airports) even if they update it / fix it, still won’t match what reputable third parties provide in terms of accuracy, visuals, and performance (I find Asobo airports perform terribly).

I’ve purchased many third parties that came with the Premium Deluxe as they are just better all around.

Thanks all for your thoughts I think I missed the sale as it’s June 1 here, but it is down to $14.99 so I’ll bite.

Cheers and it better perform well!#$$^@#)

after you purchase and install the Flightbeam KDEN you have to delete the Asobo version from your Content Manager. If you run the sim w both installed, all kinds of funny and weird things happen at DIA!
