What's in the business side of Automation?

[Daffyflyer]

On the business side? Nothing!

On Automation in general, we're still working on V8s, and are fairly close to having all the art in for Crossplane V8s

I know the business side is not developed yet but what about the ordering a car. How will that be like?

I hope that in-game you can choose company's "nationality" and maybe acquire small boost to your cars sold per year in that country. ;D Like in finland i guess everyone would bye fisker karma if they had the money

But also i hope you remembered that there should be also income from parts. Like Toyota has its own oil filters and everything.

Vehicle warrantys? Is tht in automation or planned?

Can you have factories in different regions?
And can your HQ and factory be in different regions?
Can a region affect how well you make a car?

1. Yes
2. Your first HQ and factory will be in whatever region you choose to start in, but further factories can be opened.
3. Kind of, different regions will have different labour costs, and may have little bonuses to certain things

Oh, great work Daffy, now, *cracks knuckles* time to do marketing research!

Will you have competing companies in the game? Like how there is Ford, Chevy, Dodge always going against each other? And if so will you be able to see what kind of cars they are producing? Like if a competitor is making a coupe with 210 HP @ 6,800 RPM that gets 30 mpg, can you check this so that you could try to make a coupe with 235 HP @7,300 RPM that gets 36 mpg, too compete?

Judging by the quality of the demo we have now, i'm sure the business side will be well in-depth. My head is bursting with the possibilities of what you'll be able to do!

I just pre-ordered and I'm really looking forward to this aspect of the game, what is here is amazing but pointless without a very good business simulation.
I hope that more people will support this guys, they are working very hard on this project.

The business part will be epic - i can see myself bombing down lots of hours making cars and engines that fail and suceed But thats whats the game about: Making Cars
@nixiam: Alfisti eh? Good choice
