This game made me appreciate the torture true automotive engineers have to go through to make a car adhere to the correct emissions and safety standards.
Sandbox mode and designing a car from scratch is really fun! With some assistance online (AI) I was able to learn what value changes affect what and how to balance things. Also this game performs well on an old gaming rig from 2017 with a newer monitor (GTX 1080, 2k resolution @120Hz). No slowdown, no crashes, etc. If I just wanted to use Automation to build cars for fun and possibly export to Beam.NG, I would recommend this. However, the campaign mode is what brings all the fun to an abrupt halt. The navigation is HORRENDOUS and there is almost ZERO guidance for learning the ropes. You can accidentally miss something because you didn't check every single d@/\/\n screen. For example, you have to sign off on projects or you're advancing months and scratching your head as to why you're not producing anything even though you've assigned a car and engine to a factory and set up the factory's values. It just feels like an unfinished mess. I guess that's why this is still in Early Access after a decade? lol
this is the best game you can buy if you have autism (that isn't ksp1)
PLEASE ADD DIESEL
I spend 10 hours in this game to figure out everything, the UI is one big mess. I am surprised it got very positive reviews, i am sure it has a lot of depth and such, but the campaign is harder than a trillion dollar company excel sheet imo.
Great tycoon game about running a car company and designing cars, all it's missing is a multiplayer campaign mode, the only multiplayer currently is more like a quick deathmatch. Please let us compete with our friends through the years and across markets in full a multiplayer campaign!
Vou virar mecanico só por conta desse jogo
After 10 years in early access i would wait tll it gets released :) I've spend a alot of time and had alot of fun with this game :) I think it's A great game but i really need the safety of a full release. the developer actually cares about you, that is something you don't really see today, so thank you! <3 will 100% recommend for car and engine nerds! <3
Güzel oyun buna çok oyun denmezde BeamNG ile birleşince güzel oluyor bence BeamNG niz varsa alın yoksa biraz tırt kalıyor yada ikisinide alın.
I have never written a review on steam before but this game is one that I feel deserves it the most. I have spent over 600 hours playing this game whether it is playing the campaign, which has improved so much in the recent update, or just messing around designing engines and crazy cars. This is truly a sandbox and if you are a car enthusiast or even someone that just loves a super in depth, detailed game then this game has it all. Back to that campaign now. I have always absolutely loved single player career type gameplay and it was always enjoyable for me even before this current version of the game but, the current campaign is some of the most fun I have ever had playing a game. i can sink literal days into fleshing out a company and designing cars. Something about the grind to understand the game and be on the right side of the crazy learning curve is so satisfying.
