Car Review and another question.

I'm big fan of Top Gear and I like watch Jeremy Clarkson do a car review.

Will this game had a car review?

Re: Car Review

We are considering a feature where you can look at reviews of your cars, it would look at the stats of the car compared to other ones on the market and write a little review out of some premade sentences

Not sure if it will make it into the final game though

Re: Car Review

Yes, you can choose a country, and they will have different types of buyers and different advantages and disadvantages.


Some countries will be rolled together into one however, for example Australia and New Zealand, and Iran, Iraq and Pakistan, that kind of thing

Re: Car Review and another question.

Yes, when we get to that stage we might ask all you guys about your local car industry.


You can choose engine position and orientation yes.

Re: Car Review and another question.

More question. I really interesting in this game. :D

1.Will it have some unique engine like Rotary or 5cylinder?
2.Will it have a lot of Rival companies? Like in my country, We not only have three Companies. We have more than 10.
3.Will Rival Companies make a Unique car? Like player do. Example. I played and I bored so I start a new game and AI car will be different.
4.Can I also manage Dealership?

Sorry if I ask too much question. I really interesting. :)

Re: Car Review and another question.

1.Will it have some unique engine like Rotary or 5cylinder? - Inline 5, Yes, Rotaries will be part of it eventually, but probably in a later expansion or patch

2.Will it have a lot of Rival companies? Like in my country, We not only have three Companies. We have more than 10. - At least 16 player run companies (in multiplayer) and possibly more AIs than that

3.Will Rival Companies make a Unique car? Like player do. Example. I played and I bored so I start a new game and AI car will be different -

If it all works the way we want it to, there will be a range of similar to real word manufacturers, also we might have an option for the AI to use fan-made cars uploaded to the website, giving a huge range of cars - we have not decided exactly how the AI cars will work yet though so that may change.

4.Can I also manage Dealership? - You'll be able to choose how many dealerships you have in a location, set pricing and advertising, but probably not much more than that.

Re: Car Review and another question.

I didn't want to post new topic

What about an name issue?

If I name my Hybrid Sedan "Shitbox" will it kill my car sale. :D

Not going deep to a meaning of some normal name like Pajero which in Spanish mean *cough*wanker*cough*
