When they are available, you open DCS, click on the module manager and install whatever you want.

 

I don't see a "module manager", I'm on Steam.

Edit: Now I'm seeing the list at the bottom of the main screen in game has removed the "BUY" label. But there most of their modules aren't listed.

According to the news the sale (and the free flight) will start at 10:00 PST (which is 19:00 MET).

 

It is not clear to me if there is a free flight on steam (I hope so)

[Sr.]

Scrolled to the end... No Hornet, Super Carrier,  or anything else that wasn't there before.

 

But the "Buy" button is gone.

 

Steam DCS Store still lists all full price.

Correction. The buy button is back.

I have been checking all afternoon, and so far nothing has show up as a free trial, although I do see the sale items on the E-Shop.  Maybe they meant the 23rd?

"The Free to Play period will run for two weeks (22.12.20 10:00 PST - 05.01.20 10:00 PST)"

 

..you have another 50 minutes to wait

[Sr.]

Just guessing.... +9 hours

[mkiii]

PST is Pacific Standard Time, not Eastern European Time . Tha is only 2 to 3  Hours ahead of GMT not 9 hours.

[ShaunX]

It's definately open now on Standalone. All modules available to download from module manager. A-10C II on its way down to my machine now

[ArjenHVA]

So what's the procedure on free to play on Steam or does it not apply there? A bunch of modules are listed as N/A but show a price on the individual page and also at checkout (while the article mentions access all DCS World modules for free ).

[Sr.]

Quote

Enjoy free access to all aircraft and terrains from our e-Shop and Steam for two weeks.

 

So by "All" you mean... not ALL all?

Guess we have to wait for the neckbeard at the steam store UI to get his shit together.

I need a discount to buy (((

The discounts are there (except for the A-10C II) but still no free to play.

The prices don't have anything to do with the free trial - it doesn't show up on the Store pages for DCS or the modules. If it works like last time, once the trial is open on Steam, you right click on DCS in your Steam Library, click Properties, and then the DLC tab. Once the trial begins, you'll have check boxes for all the modules. Click the ones you want to install, then OK, and DCS will install the trial modules. It took me forever to figure that out during the spring trial period.
