New brands

Post by Rir »

Hi my name is Ricky I would like to talk about possibly trying to get new car brands into the game I'm a big fan of 17,19,22 but we really need real vehicles coming from a console player I understand if you're hands are tied but we could really use some actual trucks and cars thank you for your time

Edit don_apple: topic moved from german to english section.

likely requires licenses from the popular brand names. im sure Giants would get them into game if the community would buy the licenses. Start a gofundme?

im only spitballing here as that is the likely reason...resource priority management

Brand licensing in games are almost never done in exchange of money, rather it's beneficial for both parties, so they simply make agreements for their terms.
But I'm guessing regular car brands don't see the benefit of them being portrayed in an agricultural game like FS, but truck manufacturers should.

Modders have had succes with making brand deals in the past, simply by reaching out to the brands, then said brands contact Giants. But I'm guessing truck manufacturers are probably too big for this to happen.

Well, we "just" got Volvo, we got Man and Mack, so some see the benefits.

But licensing takes a while to sort out. Giants have previously said getting a new brand ingame can takes years

Ford truck and ford tractor would likely not be included in the same license

Ideally more from Land Rover or the Ford Ranger Wildtrack I'd love to see on the modhub if not included in the base game then a DLC.
I do know there are mods of them out there yet it'd be preferred for them to be downloaded from the modhub, this way I'd know they've been properly tested by GIANTS themselves thus wouldn't be riddled with issues.
...On a side note, one thing I'd really love to see in game is an XC70 :P
