Re: Poll: What aspect of Automation are you most interested

I choosed designing cars and trying to replicate a real manufacturer.
Perhaps a manufacturer with a side brand or two, something like "FIAT (standard cars) + Lancia (more elegance) + Alfa Romeo (more sport). Perhaps adding Abarth too (tuning FIAT models).
I'd like to run a business too.

Re: Poll: What aspect of Automation are you most interested

I've actually been drawing up models and engines (as well as a general 'style') for a fictional car company in my spare time for years... Generally do it when I get bored, but when this game comes out, I may actually forget the meaning of boredom.

Hi!

Just two options? That was hard, but I chose "Building your dream car company" and "Trying to replicate a real manufacturer", but all of the other options are interesting to me in a car tycoon game.

Re: Poll: What aspect of Automation are you most interested

I think Iam like everyone else and remember back to my school days when we used to all draw car designs in the back of our text books and argue which was best. :lol:

So for me its designing the cars but iam crap starting from scratch so I guess I would need to modify a basic mule shape which will mean plenty of detail options.

Secondly the idea of experimenting with different engine combinations i.e.; petrol vs. diesel and different states of tune, turbo’s or superchargers etc.

An estimated performance graph for each car design with top speed, acceleration and economy etc, like a road test magizine.

Finally comes the business aspect which I prob would eventually get round to after I had designed myself out, so to speak.

See I don’t want much, do I. :o :D :D
When I die, I want to go peacefully like my Grandfather did, in his sleep -- not screaming, like the passengers in his car.

Re: Poll: What aspect of Automation are you most interested

I voted for "Designing cars" and "Designing engines" because, well, that's what appeals to me the most :P Running a car company is also of interest though, I'm interested to see how that pans out. Really liking what I've seen so far :D

I voted for Designing Cars and Managing. I love tycoon games, especially ones that let you really create custom design (i.e. Rollercoaster Tycoon).

Re: Poll: What aspect of Automation are you most interested

Just preordered the game!

Awesome work what you did with the engine designer and what you have already shown in some videos.
It will be a very good game with this concept and if you keep up the good work ;-).

If you need some help maybe for testing or just want to here my humble opinion on some features i would be glad too here from you by private massage :-).

As I have worked for a game developing company before and had to do with testing I may could help you a bit if it is wished, also I am very interested in Cars and Engines what makes the thing very interesting.

Cheers

Re: Poll: What aspect of Automation are you most interested

My initial reaction was to say engine building, that's what drew me here really, but I'm pretty interested in the over all package.
