Will i have the Train Sim World 5 core features like the conductor mode unlocked, if i get the free starter pack? Currently i own the Great Western Express addon and i think that after Great Western Express remaster i will get these features, because Great Western express will be a Train Sim World 5 route, but i'm not sure, does someone know?
If I recall correctly the current plan is that the HST will also receive guard mode. At least what I read from an official DTG article
If you already own the GWE addon and upgrade to the free version of TSW 5, you will get the GWE remaster with TSW 5 features. Both the 166 and HST will have conductor mode as part of the remaster.
I got the impression it was development priority more than anything else. They decided to start with commuter services, so that if they ran out of dev time they could say the Pendolino would be boring, instead of the issue we had with TSW4's suspension. I also got the impression that guard mode for the Pendolino is not off the cards.
