Maybe add what you said you would

I paid $35 to see this amazing game, that said there would be V16 engines, superchargers, different kinds of turbochargers, and I-3/5 engines, I do not see that. I understand that it takes time to make a game and I myself am currently working on one, but you really want to get a good game going that you can make a living off of maybe actually add what is said in the game. Sad thing, you can only have twin turbo v8's, well, there is also such thing as supercharged v8's and single turbo v8's, i myself prefer single turbo v8's so I really want something like this to be an addition to the game. Now, forced induction is really what i have been waiting for, but, the car designer is great aswell, now, we could use maybe 1-2 mid engine platforms aswell, something that looks like a MR2 or a pontiac fiero :))) <3 fiero. Anyway, as you have read through this and are probably going to reply that you are infact working on the game, i completetely beleive you and you are amazing people for making games like this really, great game, but maybe, just maybe could you make it a completish game by the end of the year? Thank you

Re: Maybe add what you said you would

Well, of course you don't see those items, because they are not done yet. Check the buy page again and note the following things:
Unlocks Turbos, V8 and I6 Engines and more Car Bodies
The Making of Automation eBook/Art Book*
V16 Engines*
*When Completed

Where does it say anything about I3s and I5s being done and ready for you to play with? Where does it say that you'll have superchargers and V16s right now?
Yes, we are going to add all of the things you mention once they are done and ready to be implemented.

The game won't be anywhere near complete until the end of the year, but we are aiming for having a demo of the first tycoon aspects of the game till then so that people get a taste of the campaign gameplay in the finished game. :)

Re: Maybe add what you said you would

Every engine type that we've said is coming is still coming, but the current focus of development is getting the car design side of things finished and getting a first version of the Tycoon aspect done.

Once we've got those things done, we'll have most of the major gameplay aspects of the game done and we'll be able to go back to adding lots more cool content. Personally I'm very much looking forward to that point in development, but it's still a while off.

Sorry if that's not the answer you wanted, but that's the downside of early access, you have to wait for things to get done!

Re: Maybe add what you said you would

Fist off,

Hello. Love the game. Been working with the guys over at Gear City and they both have their good qualities but I do say I love your visuals.

Maybe this has been answered but have you guys thought about flat 4s and H 8s?

Also, Is there a plan for motorcycles or small engines?

Mods feel free to move this if it is in the wrong place, I apologize.


Also, feel free to PM about testing. I have alpha/beta tested for quite a few games and am well aware of the proper documenting procedures. Just wanting to mention this. No big ether way.

Re: Maybe add what you said you would

Thanks for buying the game, I am sure you will enjoy it!

There will be flat 4s and flat 6s, but no engines in the H configuration. There will be 2 stroke engines, probably as a DLC, but no motorcycles themselves. Remember, this is a car tycoon game.

There was an invitation to apply for beta testing a few weeks ago, but you just missed that. If they feel like they need another tester, they might accept you or me. But in the even if they don't, there could be one more round of accepting testers, but that would happen later on. Perhaps a dev could confirm that there will be a chance for you to apply to test in the future?

Re: Maybe add what you said you would

Thanks,

Wasn't sure if they were going to allow an "outsourcing" for an engine you produce (Creating the avenue for motorcycle and small engines).


All in all its a neat concept.
