Already grabbed the Met :-)
What does S7+1 get us versus already having the S8 (and 3rd party DR S7). I see JT wants yet another $32 for the S7+1, so what value does it have?

You can get it in a bundle with the Met which only adds another £10 to the price. All the Met scenarios are for the S7+1. Interior is now the same as the real District S7. Is there any discount though for owning the S8 or LA Route ? Can't see any at the moment. So they are charging £39.99 for the Met and S7+1 AFAICS with no discount for prior purchasers.

You could get a discount on the Met if you already own the S8. You should have got mail yesterday with a personal code.

The S8 has been updated with scenarios for the Met route, just re-download from your account. The scenarios come with the trains, not the route.

I got the email about the Met route being available but despite owning the S8 there was nothing in the email about a discount code. However I thought the bundle price with the S7+1 was not too bad and to be honest I'm not that upset about the code. I expect other people will get upset over it and they may sort something out with reward points later on. I'm just glad to see a developer putting work into an Underground route. I haven't yet run anything , but watched Steve Chesters Twitch stream on the route prior to release. One of the things the team here are excited about is the new speed sensing and timing section signals which are always showing a red aspect UNLESS you approach at the correct speed or slower, whereupon they will clear to green. We need this feature in certain places on the DR and no doubt will be used in any future updates. Thanks for clearing up the confusion over the scenarios too.

The code wouldn't have worked on the bundle, only the Met itself. The bundle itself is really a bargain, the S7+1 + Met with discount for pre-owning the S8 would have been a bit more expensive, so nothing made wrong here!
I also like the implemantation of the SDO at Great Portland Street an Barbican. I testfitted it on the VDL's sub-surface section and it works great! The only downside is the TCMS displays all stations in that section as Barbican...

Checking back further in my inbox I saw an email from JT about the Met being released. That email had the code in it. However as you've pointed out it's still cheaper to buy the bundle and get the S7+1 for half price, so no worries. Worth never rushing in, at these times. Glad to hear the SDO works too. Some clever clogs might sort out the TMS too................ perhaps.
