    I actually wouldn't mind paid DLC if the content in question was something that doesn't add anything to the game, like making the Light Runner music and Gabe's soundtracks purchasable as DLC. Certainly not something like how Automation locks V16 engines away as DLC though...

    I will agree with the people mentioning paid DLC. RIP base content modding! Even if that area of content isn't as hot as it once was, there are still new part/config packs coming out occasionally and I would eventually like to get into that...

    I will repeat that sex and swearing should have no place in this game. [REDACTED FURTHER DETAILS]

    Don't make the story mode overwrought and Hollywoody. Plain old racing does have its place. However the story mode also shouldn't go off the Forza Horizon end of the scale, throwing cars and money at the player as if they were confetti.

    Don't do what GTA does and have every car be a low-effort caricature of the real one. They get away with it with the 200BX because it's a fairly reasonable car with enough thought put into it to be its own entity. Even the LeGran manages to sort of carve an identity for itself. However if every car starts to look like a dead ringer for a real one, it's going to get annoying.

    Deteriorated map design. I haven't seen any signs of this so far; the Forza Horizon devs should seriously be taking pointers from BeamNG. Never lose that, devs. Never lose that.

    I looked for a while at the hood ornament to see what you're trying to get at, but it's a very far stretch, not sure what you mean.

    EDIT: Now I see it.

    A few people noticed soon after the car came out. But if you didn't then I'm very sorry you and @Danny Werewolf had to see it.

    Zombies and robots, that is how UK and Germany has received some popular FPS titles before in history, german Wolfenstein 3D was rather different experience from what rest of the world got.

    So gray cute tinman would work just fine, robot avatar that drives car by your instructions.




    So one thing I don't want to see is challenges that are challenging because of limited time and other grindy elements to extend game length. I consider those in any game to be lazy way to make game, more cleverness and effort gives always better results.

    I would be fine with paid DLC which adds to 1.0 game, that would deliver game as promised to early adopters and still could allow some further additions not otherwise possible to game, so you could get 1.5 or maybe even close to 2.0.

    I would be okay with monthly subscription service too, if it adds to beyond 2.0 and not limit anything in 1.0, but adding huge new angle to game or super easy content making tools etc. Which could be whole separate product.
    However at that point team would need to be quite large already and be able to put lot more time and effort (more people, more work in time unit) so you would get lot in return and not just feel ripoff.

    MS office is kinda expensive and bit like ripoff, but you do get quite a lot with the subscription, it is still at the edge of what I'm willing to pay, so subscription would need to add really a lot.


    There are no free lunches in this world, to get something you really need to be prepared to pay from it, so for me it is not issue that massive content in game like this is being asked a price, amount of work to make said content is quite bit larger than for most other games, so understanding that makes at least me to feel that paying more would be okay.

    Would not like to see payment asked from some freaking flags and skins though, that is like super low effort money milking.

    But I only use bus route to see the destinaton board. I now you could mod it out but i don't know how?

    IMO: No huge maps any bigger than italy and no paid dlc

    Beam.ng is out of two the only paid game that if you want more content you need to pay money!
    like ts2019 needs dlc.

    It costs money to make game and content for it. If developers make full sized game, you would not want more content for paying little more?

    You would not want map big like Pikes Peak, American Road, Tennessee?

    Performance can be improved from what it is now, would be kinda short sighted to limit everything like that, imo.

    Ahhhhh

    It is because that my pc( which have the performance of a laptop ) can't handle any bigger maps then half of italy.

    Atleast beamng does not do it.;)

    That might come across a bit offending, not sure if you meant it quite like that.

    Could be wreckfest style where the driver deforms =P

    As much as I would like crash test dummies to go with the soft body physics, it would probably take their image right back to "that crashing game", but with career mode in the near future that's the last thing they need. Making people realize this game is actually a game is IMO a PR priority for them in the next year or so.

    Did you know the world isn't squeaky-clean?

    Also, it always looked like a bullet to me, and still does. I think the issue is with you.

    To be completely honest, I was a little disappointed to notice that. That's something you'd expect from Rockstar's stupid and immature "humor" (Which is getting stale as all hell tbh, "let's take something real and make it into a sex joke lol"), not BeamNG.

    Eh, not an excuse as far as I know. And like I said, I wasn't the one who noticed. When other people found it, I wanted to believe it was a jet engine!
