At that time I think that they didn't have it at Steam. I solved issue by merging BS1 and BS2.

Jel Posted December 17, 2022 Posted December 17, 2022 Bought BS2 on steam, migrated to standalone and now also seeing 69,99 for BlackShark3. That´s so weird. Now i read that those dudes tell us to "buy the upgrade from the same place we bought bs2 from". Are you serious ? Forcing ppl to go back to steam is kind of not what i would expect here... 1 When in doubt - climb. Nobody ever collided with air.

(AUT) VIPER Posted December 17, 2022 Posted December 17, 2022 Here's my problem: I bought the Black Shark 2 on the ED Website. Now, a friend of mine wanted to gift me the Black Shark 3 upgrade on Steam, but it doesn't work. It said "Insufficient privilege". Any Idea on what's wrong?

Jel Posted December 17, 2022 Posted December 17, 2022 (edited) As it seems, the Upgrade works only on the platform you bought BS2 with. So sad. Edited December 17, 2022 by Jel When in doubt - climb.

cordite Posted December 17, 2022 Posted December 17, 2022 But you should be able to upgrade once it's available, and then migrate again? Less than ideal, but what can you do?
5ephir0th Posted December 17, 2022 Posted December 17, 2022 The fix if you bought BS2 on Steam is buy the upgrade on Steam too and migrate it to stand alone, that works NZXT H9 Flow Black | Intel Core i5 13600KF OCed P5.6 E4.4 | Gigabyte Z790 Aorus Elite AX | G.Skill Trident Z5 Neo DDR5-6000 32GB C30 OCed 6600 C32 | nVidia GeForce RTX 4090 Founders Edition | Western Digital SN770 2TB | Gigabyte GP-UD1000GM PG5 ATX 3.0 1000W | SteelSeries Apex 7 | Razer Viper Mini | SteelSeries Artics Nova 7 | LG OLED42C2 | Xiaomi P1 55" Virpil T-50 CM2 Base + Thrustmaster Warthog Stick | WinWing Orion 2 F16EX Viper Throttle | WinWing ICP | 3 x Thrustmaster MFD | Saitek Combat Rudder Pedals | Oculus Quest 2 DCS World | Persian Gulf | Syria | Flaming Cliff 3 | P-51D Mustang | Spitfire LF Mk.

Laszlo Posted December 19, 2022 Posted December 19, 2022 Ticket and support also worked for me. Thanks ED!
WereVolf Posted March 12, 2023 Posted March 12, 2023 I have a question. I have purchased BS1 over a decade ago on Steam and at the same time I can see the DCS: Black Shark 3 Upgrade Steam version for 9,73 €. When I click on it, it gives me this information. Does that mean I can upgrade to BS3? Has anyone upgraded from BS1 to BS3? There is no BS2 upgrade I might add.
Nemesis44UK Posted March 24, 2023 Posted March 24, 2023 Okay, I have a slightly different problem - As an owner of BS2, BS3 has been at the 9.99 mark, but weirdly enough, in the sale, it's showing up as 19.99 even though I'm logged in. Has it had a price rise, or is it a peculiarity? i5-12400F, 32GB Corsair Vengeance LPX, MSI RTX4060 8GB, 1TB Corsair Pro NVME. Finally, I can run DCS!!!

The US$ 10 upgrade was for a limited time only, so I guess that it has lapsed, you waited too long ... the FAQ says: "you may take advantage of the Black Shark 3 Upgrade Program.
