What IS Career Mode Supposed To Be?

Career Mode has been in development since the very start of this game, But I have one question. What IS Career Mode? Is it an open-world Map with currency, Traffic and Police? Is it a pack of scenarios where your past progress counts? Is it a Work simulator? What IS IT Really? I Have no Idea!

 

i like this idea

 

yes, i'd imagine there's going to be multiple "career paths" which you start by meeting different characters, some of which might lock you out of doing others (for example not being a police officer and a street racer/getaway driver at the same time).
the "get busy" campaign probably showed off the beginning of the stuntman career path, you'll likely get more jobs from the movies dude involving car chases, stunts, maybe operating a "camera car", etc., gradually increasing in complexity and difficulty.
I could see racing being split up into a couple of groups:
-derbies and banger races (probably ran by the redneck sounding person in the barrel knocker scenario)
-illegal street racing (perhaps accessed by someone you meet in legitimate racing)
-official circuit and closed-course street racing
-official rally and offroad racing
I could also see them maybe adding shortcuts from one career path to another, for example proving your ability in illegal street racing may get you a job as a smuggler or getaway driver.

 

When can I play my career?

 

'when it's ready' said the developers.

 

just imagine using a screwdriver in the walking mode

it could be insane

 

Great idea! i hope to see this in vanilla game or in mod repository someday.

Also, like you said, some different carrer choice must be present (police, street tuner, mechanic, paramedic, different kind of legal racing etc..) and you may have the possibility of switch between them with different charcaters.

 

I hope repairing your cars will be a thing. It's still not an in-game mechanic. I wonder if it is a viable thing for the devs to implement and if we will see something like that in career mode at all.

 

That would explain the Scintilla movie car! All your ideas sound so cool, I hope career mode ends up at least half as cool as that sounds.
