I appreciate any level of being able to customize the car in a simulator, including making custom liveries as part of the game.



The post can end here.









, but I'm gonna make this about me and share a story

I remember the first day when my friend was telling me about this new game and he couldnt even pronounce the last name of the game but we knew very well that it was "nidforspid" (how we would say need for speed in our language all butchered up)

  
We leave school, run as fast as we can to his house with our backpacks flopping on our backs uncontrollably, we get there all winded up and ready to play racing game on the keyboard arrows because simulators were still hollywood level type shit for us

  
Sure enough Vlade had a new game, pirated and all, this one came on 2 cd's not just one, and with a black marker the SONY CD-R said: Need for Speed Underground on it, but his fkin older brother was already playing  the game with a Golf 4 GTI and it was pink and it had a yellow spoiler and a yellow exhaust tip, so we spent some time watching and never really got a turn until I got my own copy

This was the first game ever that I knew of in my life where you could change the car in the car games and make it however the hell you want. Bumpers, wheels, stickers, colors, window tint, neon.... the possibilities were endless

  
Customizing shit in games means the world to me. I love it 1000000 times more than unlocking some "rare" livery or skin that they picked out for me. Fucking gross. Everyone wearing the same thing. Even being able to change the shade of color and finish is enough for me to love it way more.

  
NFS Underground and Undeground 2 were so ground breaking at the time, they opened a whole new world of cars and influenced a generation of fanatics. I'm glad to see the same car customization spirit crack the surface in ACE, as it is already a pretty vital part in Forza over the past 20 years and now stronger than ever in GT7 

  
I appreciate this new era of customization in AC E, I really hope it becomes an even bigger part of the game. Mods and the mod community are cool, i still want that to exist, but having a built in this inside the actual game from the factory with being able to make the car your own means more to me. Makes it feel complete.

  
More shit like this, I think we all like customization. 

  
Happy new year!



  




Customizing the car means the world to me and and I'm grateful to see it in AC EVO now
