Does this not work? If not, why is it still on the website?

The discounted BS1 to BS2 upgrade (similar to BS2 sale pricing) is no longer sold/available.

 

AFAIK "BS1 upgrade" still works with older versions of DCS but is depreciated (unsupported) in 2.5.6

 

Owners who already own the BS1 upgrade can upgrade their licence to a "full" BS2 licence (that doesn't check for BS1 when 1st installed) and works in 2.5.6.

Moving from "BS1 Upgrade" to a Full BS2 licence is free.

 

Moving from BS1 (2008 ) to DCS World BS2 (2011-2020) requires you buy afresh.

So...

DCS: Black Shark 2 was bought 05/14/2016

 

 

Black Shark 2 Republic Campaign 05/20/2016

 

 

Must be re-purchased? I am Really confused. It says "You already have a serial number for this product."

@Super18 - Don't worry you are fine.

What is being talked about here is when people bought the original "Black Shark" (which was a completely standalone game, nothing to do with the "DCS World" we now live in) and then upgraded to "Black Shark 2" and are now trying to 'convert' this combination of "BS1+BS2Upgrade" into a license for the full single "DCS: Black Shark 2" module within DCS World.

 

 

From what you say, you bought the 'full' version of "DCS: Black Shark 2" straight up within DCS World. So this topic of transferring/converting/migrating licenses doesn't affect you.
