ThePro Posted March 1, 2019 Report Posted March 1, 2019 Add a mileage to the cars to the bottom right panel of the car. Finally, there would be some price variations in the car market. 1
JakeInnit_ Posted March 1, 2019 Report Posted March 1, 2019 How would the amount of miles affect the vehicles worth? Are you suggesting the car degrades overtime, depending on the mileage? If the mileage has no affect I don't see why it would affect the price of the vehicle.
ThePro Posted March 1, 2019 Author Report Posted March 1, 2019 It would affect the price of the vehicle, for the people that take RP seriously. You don't need to affect the vehicles, basically, you won't pay the same price for a brand new car, and a car with 100 000 km. And if you wouldn't RP it, well then it's just your problem that you don't want to do proper roleplay. This would be only for people that came for the roleplay.
Denni Posted March 1, 2019 Report Posted March 1, 2019 +1 only with for example, things breaking regularly at a later mileage. 100k miles, damn son your brakes need changing, engine issues etc. Loss of BHP unless you do a engine makeover. 2

Don't agree with that, since that's not a rule in real life that a car has problems after 100k miles or so. Some car types in real life have millions of kilometers and still have the original engine, the only thing that was changed is the brakes.

A car with 100,000 miles has a higher chance of breakdowns... As such, there's a risk. So +1 with my addition. -1 because you "just want miles". Give it a purpose man.

This sounds like it could add some realism & depth into vehicles in-game. +1
Logan_Black Posted March 4, 2019 Report Posted March 4, 2019 +1 if you would need to change oil, brakes every x amount of kilometers, -1 if only for just a number, because that number it will be just a number if it has not purpose.
Xoza Posted March 6, 2019 Report Posted March 6, 2019 +1 I like the idea for information value, would love to see VIN numbers on cars also so you could see a car and say "Hey I used to own that." However, while RP is great and all, this is still a game and unless it impacts a player directly/scriptly I don't see it changing vehicle value or a reason that it should.

Of course, I am fine with the oil change, and stuff like that... But I don't think that the car should break down at all if it was kept in good condition all the time.
Pete_Stanley Posted March 7, 2019 Report Posted March 7, 2019 yeah, In my point of view, it should depend of the car, because there's certain cars that are unbreakable n' shit, but there's some cars that break more often then others, I still think that it should break, and i just got an idea that, you should be able to fix it yourself, but it wouldn't last as long, I mean you would fix a car that you want to sell, but don't want to spend a lot of money on it anymore, so you fix it yourself cheaply and sell it, and the owner would notice it after some time, also that ads some buyers who would rather buy a brand new vehicle, which would bring in more cars in the game.
John_MacAleese Posted March 7, 2019 Report Posted March 7, 2019 This would be interesting for the engine to slowly degrade over-time giving mechanics more to do with vehicles! +1
Hilbert Posted March 12, 2019 Report Posted March 12, 2019 (edited) Yes. +1 Edited March 12, 2019 by Hilbert

asv321 Posted March 13, 2019 Report Posted March 13, 2019 +1 Every 1000 km or so, a service is needed by mechanics otherwise the car my stall many times.
Rytis Posted March 17, 2019 Report Posted March 17, 2019 +1 Definitely something I've been wanting for a while. It's sometimes nice to see just how much you've driven. I don't think it should affect performance, but cars with very high mileage may actually become more expensive since they're literally rarer, which would be interesting to see. (I've actually seen this happen on other servers)
yuk51 Posted March 18, 2019 Report Posted March 18, 2019 I like the mileage idea +1 Make it so after 100k-150k+ miles the car starts stalling or taking multiple attempts to start the engine, and needing a tune up/engine replacement etc. Could be a creative input into the game that would need some obvious balancing to make it work.
