Some suggestions for game growth. PLEASE READ DEV :-)

[IcewaterCreek®]

Game is terrific!! Not easy nor hard as it is a fun balancing act. Being older than most of the younger gamers I find this game has a ton of growth potential and is really well done.
That being said, if I may, I would like to suggest a few things that would spice the game a bit more... I am on day 100 finally in top 5 dealerships(5 th lol) but at 77 CS with only level 3 building but still on a lean budget. LOL

1. Allow us to control our own sales events. A way to do this is perhaps allow us to invest into one of six packages.
A. One car type sales event
B. Free Oil Change event to help service sales.
C. Tire Balance and Rotation event to help service sales.
D. Dealership event where all cars you have liceneses for, are on sale at one location if you own other dealerships.
E. Brand event. (If I have Dub and GEW and want to sell my GEW inventory)
F. All locations sales event.

2. Allow us to utilize the "Man in White" by sending him to a target dealership to hurt their CS ratings for 5k or so doing dmg to them to help bring me partons especially if they sell my car license type. Perhaps put them out of business and corner the market. Dirty I know but its reality. Too many fish in the pond, and well... not enough to eat.

3. Allow us to have tire sales and tire types to carry in a tire department.
Flichilin
Karonoma
Firebolder
Yammato
Bridgepebble (Just a few silly names to give my idea some depth)

4. Add a few more car types to sell;
Spludi
FIA
Ascrua
Infitty
Blodge
Jupiter (More silly names just to give this idea depth)

5. Bank Loans. In real life my dealership gets loans from the manufacuter, and from banks. Have your credit fluxuate and make us remember to pay it on our own every X turns or so. You dont watch your credit, those terrible terms can be costly. If you do pay on time on X amount of turns, your loans and credit rise for bigger and better loan rates. As a car dealership owner, it does help if you carefully balance your books and once paid off... what a boost it gives to move from middle auto lines to fancier more costly vehicles.

6. Manfactuer Rebates on Trade In's. Accept X amount of trade-ins thru a period of twenty turns (not thru auction) and get a bonus from the manufacture of that car type.

7.If you sell X amount of Used Cars of a specific vehicle type, a user can get a license to build a used car dealership that is only for the used cars you take in.

8. Get your service dept guys APE certified to give you a 10% boost in service to get some CS points or have it give extra money as well.

9. Last but not least; Training for your employees. Send one team member from a specific department (Service, Sales, Mgmt) for a ten turn training, fifteen turn training, or twenty turn for a 5/10/15 point boost in their quality of service. Now there is no guarentee they will stay but at least while you have them you have invested in your staff.

I have more ideas but not knowing the DEV, his time and wanted growth of the game, I will refrain to see how this post goes.
I would like to see what cars a specific compteitor is selling so that I can choose to change my licenses and give us that ability to change the car licenses we carry.

All the best to everyone. Thanks for reading. Cant wait for more.

Good suggestion there indeed

[DiggidyNet]

Thanks for your feedback, changes are coming!

[IcewaterCreek®]

Appreciate you actually reading what I took the time to write.
It shows character and you really care about your audience. Thank you!!
If you would like more ideas, just let me know. Too much on the plate can make leftovers go wayside if you know what I mean, so it will be at your intake speed.
Happy coding and creating, we cant wait for more content.

Amen!

I am sorry if I did this wrong. Just an older guy with older values in his 40's trying to share and bring positive light to all things I post for the world to see. No benefit for me to take my time to provide my simple thoughts... of something great... to possibly make it greater.

If its my manners, yeah plenty of trolls out there, so just a taste of good ole manners and respect. They say there is not place for nice in tech, but I dont believe that for a minute.

I will help anyone, creating/developing anything, if my ideas and help can make it better.

Just ask me and I will help you gladly... I know one day, maybe someone will help me with my idea(s) and make it great as well, without having to ask. Sometimes I dont even know how or what to ask.

Thanks again just the same DEV for at least reading my post. Sorry to interfere.

@Fuga
Not sure he is laughing at you.
BTW I am working on a Tycoon kinda game. Would really like if you would playtest when development has come further. Its more kinda like Free Enterprise if you have heard of that.

[DiggidyNet]

I was not laughing @fuga. Fuga is signed up for our next beta!

[Spill]

Glad to hear, his post was changed after I posted. Could be miss interpered.

ALSO.. let us edit the car names in the game our selfs so we can change it to Ford or Dodge or holden

[IcewaterCreek®]

@Aussie Guy 2020 Possibly did not do that to protect copyright.
Thus why they made names close but not as such. License use... wow... it costs a lot. Music as well.
If that is not the reason, I think its to keep the game original in form to his own craft. I persoanlly think its funny and neat.

Have fun!

@Someone. Sure, would love to help. Just send me info when its time. I sent you a friend req thru steam to keep in touch. As far as "Free Enterprise", Do you mean freedom of private business to organize and operate for profit in a competitive system without interference by a governing body then I think I know what it is. Based on supply and demand?

@DiggidyNet Thanks for signing me up for next beta. Just let me know when and what, and you can surely count me in.

Happy coding and gaming to all.
