Why are there so many bad reviews on the net. I see that the most current one is around August so has the game improved since then.

I think that there is still a lot more gameplay potential in this title still to come. The developers have a three year plan for CMS 2018, so I expect that there will be plenty of additional content and features still to come.

It is a good game to have especially if you liked either of the previous versions or if you just have an intesrest in mechanics/cars.

Well, many (like me) bought this at release when it was like totally broken, left bad review and refunded.

Tons of threads on stuff still missing do not make me want to rebuy it, therefore the bad review stays.

I have only ever had three issues from day one. The first was patched within two hours, the second was that the engine had to be pressue tested or piston rings would show up with unknown condition - still happens occasionaly, but I can work around it. Third was one of the Steam achievments wasn't activated but it was some time ago.

I can find fault in every game that I have played - doesn't matter the size or price of the game, there will always be some things just like issues in modern movies where there are things that are not right or in shot that should be.

Some grips that folk have include no radiator hoses, no wiring harness and no automatic gearboxes, lack of windscreen washer fluid, no brake fluid or brake lines. There is no performance brakes, no performance suspension upgrades..........

There is time for all this and more to come to the game - it just isn't all in game right now. The latest priority for the development team is porting this game for console and Mac users.

The Plymouth DLC is due on 11th December, but there are already over 100 vehicles in game, about half of that number are in the official game or the two existing car DLC packs. There are plenty of mod vehicles now available in the workshop which is well worth exploring.

Personally, my experience with this game has been great. Only had a handful of bugs which the devs usually fixed the next day

Agreed it was off to a shakey start but has really improved alot. I will be adding the Plymouth DLC once its released. I am quite happy with everything

The irony is, when this game came out it was like a rusty barn find, as time goes on, old rusty parts are being replaced with new shiny 100% one's, by the end of it all, a fully restored classic....Red Dot legacy continues.

Personally I originally gave this game a negative review and later removed it because the issue I pointed out were basically fixed. That being said I am more than likely going to be leaving another negative review really soon seeing as they are once again putting a pay wall on content that shouldn't be part of dlc. Using the excuse the game is modable as a reason for what they are doing is flat out false as if someone made a mod of a dlc car it would be removed and a. Ban would likely be placed. What it boils down to is forcing people to buy dlc with cars they have no interest in.

The way i see it some people want perfect games on release, myself i don't hurry to grab a game these days because alot of developers rely on the internet to continue to update the game.

This is a small developer thats known for enhancing the product overtime with more R&D and even tho it has issues and isn't perfect i still find the game highly playable with good replay value if your into your cars.
There are loads of car games on the internet but not many offer the syle of gameplay this one does, while yes it could use more detail im sure the developer will add what they can with the engine and man power that they have to continue developing the game. The game isn't asking for big bucks and offers an experience of building model cars like you did when you were a kid without the messy glue and paint.

It needs a storyline Cannonball race where you fix the car as you race over long distance maps. Someone might create a mod for storylines since the game is hooked upto the workshop now. I'd love an option to race my builds multiplayer, you could have all kinda of class races from certian condition builds to maxium weight ratios.
A junker race for cars under %40 and so forth, prestege car races for classic cars, free for all races where you enter any build from anytime period with no restrictions.
Even if these additions are single player they would make the game a bit more exciting, it would be nice to sit the car in a trophy showroom that you could display online like a badge of honor.

I think atm the game is very good, when you think about the main things of a car
But what mist Car guys want to see are things like "writing" the Main Chip of the Car, connecting all the Interior windshield washer etc. With cables, which isn't in the Game and since this game is mostly made for Car Guys that's the reason for the Negative Reviews. Just my thaughts but I'm missing it aswell :(
