Valve says the time it takes to download Microsoft Flight Simulator won't affect refund requests https://tinyurl.com/yyxxx7tb Downloading Microsoft Flight Simulator takes a while: It's a hefty game weighing in at around 127 GB. The Steam download is only a 532MB client, though. The bulk of the game is installed as an 'update' from within the game menu. While the game client is open, the 'hours played' clock on Steam begins ticking. That means that even when all you're doing is downloading the games files, you're racking up minutes or hours of 'play time.' Steam's policy lets you refund a game with fewer than two hours played, but for most people it takes more than two hours to download the game. So, some worried that if they wanted to request a refund of Microsoft Flight Simulator on Steam for whatever reason, their request would be automatically rejected simply because Steam thinks they've actually played it for more than two hours. We asked Valve about the issue, and VP of Marketing Doug Lombardi replied. "The time it takes your machine to download the additional content will not be counted against the Steam Refund Policy," he wrote in an email. "We are working with Microsoft to see if we can improve the download experience," Lombardi also told us, though he didn't elaborate further. ==== 簡單來說，微軟模擬飛行這遊戲在Steam下載的大概只有500MB的微軟客戶端，剩下的 127GB要進遊戲從以更新的方式下載下來。而這結果是多數都會超過兩小時，這就超過Steam退款時限了。 (購買後14天內玩不到2小時。) PCGamer去問Valve這問題，Valve表示下載其它內容的時間不會計入遊玩時間內，同時他們也在和微軟合作看能不能改善下載問題。 -- 我們不應該依負擔的罪惡來選擇道路，而是在選擇的道路上負擔自己的罪惡。 ──蒼崎橙子「空之境界」── -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc), 來自: 36.233.149.197 (臺灣) ※ 文章網址: https://www.ptt.cc/bbs/C_Chat/M.1597913415.A.C09.html ※ 編輯: wizardfizban (36.233.149.197 臺灣), 08/20/2020 16:50:45
