been playing the 1.175 beta last couple of days, played from the 80's on in both this and the 1.17
the 80's are so much harder now - i could easily get a 20 bil company in 1.17 but now its a struggle to make profit on cars.
it feels like they are more expensive to build and also the competition is more geared to competing with better cars and taking you out
which i like but god dam its hard haha
cant wait for 1.18 so i know exactly what cars need what features because the budget is so much tighter now that you cant afford to just make everything good and produce it at a low cost and compete.
is there any where that gives a clue to what features are preferred in each car eg cargo space etc?
and also because it was so much harder to play i almost turned it into a stock trading game and i think i found a cheat/hack
if i invest in a company that is growing and say put a couple hundred mil into them they will grow to several billion value
so 5-10 years in i can have no money in my bank account because its mostly in R and D / running company / stocks
so my value of my company is low say 50 million
but i have 5 billion in stocks
so i sell my 5 billion stocks
wait a turn
my company value goes from 50 mil to 5 billion
i sell my stocks for 5 bil
so i have 10 bil
then i reinvest in the stock market and now have 10 bil to buy stocks with
and then 6 months later when i am running in the red my company stock value goes down
so i buy back my stocks for say 100 mill
and then 5 or so years later i can do it again
there is a risk with it in that the computer some times buys your stocks
so technically i should do this but only go to 51% instead of the full 100%
my point being i think the company value should take into consideration the amount of stocks you have
cus a company value of 50 mil with 5 billion in stocks is not right
although right now it seems to be the best way for me to make money in 1.175 beta haha
anyway im counting down the days to the when its done date of 1.18
keep on motoring on dude
