does steam key unlock items in launcher version?

[oppolo 2]

Hello

I have a key that permit to play only with the launcher the standard edition of BOS.

If I would like to upgrade to the premium edition, is it enought to buy 2 steam keys, one for LA3 and one for FW190?

As far as I know, if you have a non-Steam key the premium aircraft need to be purchased in the non-Steam version as well, but I'm not 100% sure.

The premium plane "DLCs"s on steam work by giving you CD-keys that unlock premium planes for your BoS account, right? So they won't make BoS appear in your steam library. I don't think you should be able to even buy them without owning the steam BoS first. And if you buy them, I'm not sure if CD keys will add planes to your account, or just say Error: adding steam plane to launcher account. And in best case when things work out and keys unlock planes, effect will be same as if you bought the premium planes outside steam...

 

... so best just upgrade non-steam licence in non-steam store .

 

... to which I can't find the link on main page. Can anyone toss us the link to premium planes non-steam store page?

Just click on the IL2 STURMOVIK on top of this side and you are on the homepage, where you can buy them in the STORE.

Link, Yogifight? All I see in store is standard and premium edition of BoS / BoM. Either people who own the planes can't buy them solo as gifts, or they are not there after all...

Click on "Store" at top of page where BoS/BoM standard and premium editions are shown , this will take you to the page where the La and FW are available to purchase

hello, thanks all

I found also the answer in the user manual at page 3: "Note: if you buy the game from the IL-2: BOS Store, any premium planes you buy must be
bought there as well."

So, If I want to upgrade, I have to buy premium planes only at http://il2sturmovik.com/store/ , or buy a key elsewhere but activable only at http://il2sturmovik.com/

I unlocked the standard version of BOS with a key bought at G2A...if I bought a non steam key anywhere, it should unlock also the premium planes, shoundn't it?

I'm not sure that you'll be able to buy officially separate non steam keys for the premium planes somewhere else except our website.

 

If you've any non steam standard version of BOS then you've to buy premium planes only at http://il2sturmovik.com/store/
