Why There Should Be No Dealership Rotation

By: A Fandom User

Release Date: January 9, 2021

This is getting a lot worse than I thought and turning into every typical game out there. Why would you need to "rotate" the cars you normally buy ingame? Just add some more stuff into the item shop and if those things get rotated, I won't have a problem but doing this for every purchasable thing in the dealership, acting like it will be a good update, etc is just unbelievable. If this gets added, I wouldn't be surprised if the devs started to put rarity on cars and items now and call them "epic, rare, super rare, legendary, etc" when they were purchasable at any given time before. There isn't anything "rare" about these cars, they are just more expensive and purchasable at any time so if that happens, mark my words that the amount of content that will get into Nitro Type will be more flawed than before. Sure, it's technically good for people who got all of the cars before, but this is just limiting the amount of things people can do from a couple of years back, and this is practically a downgrade. Just because it would be more of a "challenge" to obtain things from this doesn't necessary mean it's good. Everyone should have the freedom to buy all cars from the dealership instead of waiting for about a month to get a car they want. This isn't a videogame that has many modes and events and such but a simple typing game with small unique features like the old events, racing, etc. They are just turning this game into something that no one should face, no matter if they are new or old to the game. New players wouldn't experience the stuff that old players did and when I'm saying stuff, I don't mean event cars, etc but things that shouldn't even have excuses to experience such as buying whatever you want, actual event cars (not seasons), etc. To me, it seems like the devs just want to be like that typical game you see everyday, battle royale, shooter games, etc. Mark my words that if these genres of games didn't exist, the game would have been going on the same original path that it was going instead of the battle pass being more than half filled with cash, low effort car designs that were reskinned or premade, locking everything but a couple of stickers, cash, and a single car that doesn't make any sense in terms of the theme (why would a paper airplane be in a Christmas event?) etc. This is why they need to realize that what they have done is horrible, but I doubt it as the damage has already been done and they realized how much more sales they get from membership from doing this. TL;DR: The devs of the game are constantly making decisions based on other games, not on their own, make low effort content (about 75% of the cars from the seasons are either reskinned, straightly taken back from previous events, or based on car designs that are already in the game with only a few tweaks), and focus on other things that don't really make sense and are kind of unfair to new players and they constantly target the old players (lifetime Gold membership, removal of a lot of achievements, old event cars cause seasons are really less rewarding, etc.) Note: Don't tell me that this is a long paragraph. You don't think I know that? Let's talk about something related to what I said instead of that lol The reason I'm against this decision is not because it's mainly based on other games, but it's taking away the freedom from getting the cars that people want and just making them wait in a rotation. Yes, I get that the admins have the freedom to do whatever they want, but that doesn't mean that they can do stuff like this. It's so far from what we had 2-3 years ago that it's not even the matter of getting "money" or trying to make "more people to join the game" but just not doing as well as before and trying to actually push people to pay money rather than a nudge. It sounds like you're actually defending them for what they do because of these reasons, and all of them are poor examples that show that they can keep it up and continue to be like this. I never said anything about making everything free, I never said anything about that so I have no clue why you're putting that as a valid statement. I know you need to make money from a game to continue to make it thrive. The thing is that they are locking so many things that shouldn't be locked as one, it doesn't affect the money income they get, two, it's supposed to a common thing that shouldn't require you to pay. Some of these things include giving money to people, straight up just getting money from the pass, name changing has a cooldown now, etc. None of these things impact what they make, nor affect the popularity of the game. It's honestly a shame that not many people realize what I'm trying to say and it's in fact a bit frustrating. If they want to get money, they should continue to push out more content for Gold members instead of locking existing content out of normal players because one, nothing new is brought to the game, two it will limit the amount of things normal people get. Normal people only get 1 car per season compared to the 5-6 they usually get and it's a joke. Sorry, but this is being a bit more forceful if they want to get money. Like I said before, I wouldn't care if there were over 100 cars for Gold members each season and only 5 for normal players, but the fact that they lock so many cars to the casual player is just going to make them quit for not being as interesting as it was before. Also, I'm not really asking to bring events back (although that would be much better), but if the game continues to release stuff like this, things will go downhill noticeably for a year or two. Let me explain why. Now with content for seasons, gold members only get 2-3 cars compared to the 5-6 that we got before. Yes, seasons may last for a month so that's why it might be "more rewarding" but this is different. I understand why the devs decided to lower the limit for the pass, but it's way too easy to get the rewards and it's basically a guarantee in a week, heck in a day if you want. 240 races isn't that much and after you complete that much races, you're done for the month and there's really nothing else to do besides that. Literally more than half of the pass is just money and stickers aren't as appealing as you think (you can only use them for chatting for about 5 seconds before a race, that's it.) I get that the seasons before required you to grind daily, but this is just making the pass way too short and not challenging at all. Before in events, there were a variety of requirements that you needed to complete in order to get all of the limited event themed cars such as sessions, the amount of nitros you used, even requiring you to obtain cars before getting another one and that's another main reason why I liked events more. They were more unique, had multiple paths to completion rather than just racing multiple times, and they were fun. Now however, all you have to do is race race race, which is sort of bland when comparing this to the achievements that events brought. You didn't had to complete all of them, but they were fun to collect but when seasons come, it was a downgrade to what we had before. The changes weren't that bad at first, but when the pass section came, a lot of achievements became unobtainable, practice races are gone, etc. The cars this season were so low effort, sorry if you like them but this is just my opinion on them. The animations were somewhat of a gimmick for the cars these seasons. All we got is a reskinned tank, a car that was released before in an previous event which made it rewarding for new players but not limited anymore to the old players (personally I think that if you get an event car, it shouldn't be obtained ever again after the event is over. Remakes of the car is fine such as the 9 bit racer and the Shadow tree was somewhat fine as less than 30 people had the car, but other than that, I don't want to see this as a thing again.), and a paper airplane that's far less appealing than a tank for new players that has nothing special really other than a basic animation and practically forces people to race 240 times in order to get a single car that's considered from a limited time event (Also, what does a paper airplane have to do with Christmas? All of the other season/event cars until now had some sort of sense such as cookies, wrapping paper, etc. A paper airplane has nothing to do with the theme of Christmas. The tank also doesn't resemble Christmas and it's just a "cool-looking" tank with a skin as an attempt to resemble Christmas. Before, the season/event cars had something like Christmas lights, trees, snow, presents, elfs, santa, etc but this is just a tank that has been reskinned. I can literally do this for the Summer season and reskin an airplane with a fire/summer texture or skin and call that an event/season limited vehicle. It's definitely not the same if you get what I mean and it's really low effort.). They could have put it at the beginning to midrange of the tiers from the pass, but they decided to put it at the very end which discourages people from racing as it takes that much to get a single car that's different from what most people would get, and there's no reason to do that if a much better looking car is at the front of the pass. Doing this once again has no impact on the money, and just doesn't even give new players a sample of what's to come in terms of seasons. If seasons continue to be like this month after month, things will start to get uninterested, normal players will only have a single reskinned premade vehicle from each season if they actually got motivated from doing all of that work which isn't right in my opinion (at least show care and effort into the cars like the events, a reskinned truck isn't going to do it and the fact that people have to "live up with it for only playing in 2020" is not fine and please make more than one car. Heck, even if you're a gold member, the rewards are still decreased from value and quantity compared to the events which offered 5-6 cars every single time and it's not just a mix of typical cars/trucks you would see (to put this into perspective, compare season cars to event cars. We got surfboards, pumpkins, etc on cars but now we are facing with generic looking cars with only new paintjobs, skins, and the occasional disco ball. There isn't anything appealing as what we had before besides the animations, but that's why I consider it as a gimmick, it's only being used on limited time event/season cars now). This is all I have to say for now, please don't hit me on about this long paragraph. TL;DR: Some of the things that were changed can't even impact the money, there aren't really any excuses for some of these things, and locking things down like this won't get as much money as making more exclusive content for Gold members as doing this has nothing new in terms of content, will just be repetitive as well as upsetting for regular players. I know about these things. There isn't any benefit to rotating the old stuff, it just excludes some of the things that new players will get and it's better off to just make the dealership stay as it is while the new items from the new shop can be rotated. You definitely can't get any money from that, and there isn't any purpose into doing this. Read the paragraph if you want further detail of what I mean before you go and talk about what's wrong with some of these things since I talked about making it based on other games (which I'm fine with but it goes much more than just that). That's not what I'm saying. I'm saying that there isn't any reason to rotate them, it will just make more of a hassle to buy specific cars you want and there's no reason to do this and there isn't any benefit to this. They will also need to update the shop each time and by my guessing, the devs won't be able to update it every single time for years and years as they keep on pushing deadlines and such later and later for simple content. This won't work well for game implementation as it's supposed to be a game with things kept simple, I could be wrong on that, but this game doesn't have that much things to do besides racing, getting cash, buying, repeat. Also, you really need to stop saying that "they have to deal with it" because that's not helpful and you know it. I'm trying to focus on what they are doing, what they are doing wrong etc so we can discuss on further improvements, not "oh they didn't join before so it's their choice and problem that they missed on it." No need to be ignorant about it by repeating your replies in the exact same format but bolded. I can read. Also, I would much rather fix the problem with the game right now rather than leaving it because of the fact that the "admins aren't catering about the community right now and that new players didn't get to fact 2018" cause those are bad and invalid excuses and reasons not to fix the thing. If there's a problem out there, would we rather give them a nudge and help them go to the right direction rather than just "living with it?" Give actual valid arguments besides that. Not all things impact money, I have talked about this many times in multiple game discussions, did research etc. Just because a minor update releases, that doesn't mean it will impact money, even if there are schools involved. Something as simple as not allowing cash from some of the tiers in a pass isn't going to make a lot of money, and that's a fact, not a possibility. This is 100% correct and saying that it's "simply not true" isn't helpful. As well as with the cars, just because a small percentage of players get them, that doesn't mean that you should start being lazy and do whatever you want and release low effort content forever. Stop defending them because of that. That doesn't give them permission to just make things drastically downwards as it's common sense and something no one should ever do in terms of game development. They can still do it sure, but it's never a good idea to do that. It should be kept simple, instead of forcing a lot of people to wait it out. It would cause more problems then any new benefits you would get from this (more people would have to wait it out than doing something like that and there is literally no reason to make it like this to force people to rush and grind before their favorite car goes away) and it wouldn't be that fun to just grind money like that. There won't be any rewards for doing this besides getting the car you want which is already a thing before the rotation comes (I know that if the car is gone, it technically will be rare but jesus, it's so much work for a simple thing that it shouldn't be like this and it's not worth it) Why would you race so much? You only get about 2,000 dollars per race and you won't be at like 8.9 mil but something like 4 mil when it comes, cash from the pass isn't enough (it shouldn't take up so many slots in the pass either way since that's wasting potential rewards) and even if you did have the cash, it's only for one car so if you want another car, you would have to wait multiple seasons to get the cash you need and then wait even more for the rotation to cycle through which will most likely take a long time on it's own. If you want a cheap car, you would still have to wait a long time for the rotation to cycle through and it will be more much difficult to get a simple thing that shouldn't take too long to get if you just want something like that. Also, how long would it take to see the car if there's so many of them? How would you know it's coming if you're a new player? (plz don't give me a solution to that, they are only adding this rotation) It would be much better to keep the dealership how it is as there are a lot of cars that people could buy that would cause them to wait so long and just rotate the items. It seems like the devs just want to make it based on other games, yet barely have any knowledge on how to make it so that it doesn't change the game completely like this and create multiple problems. There is literally no reason to do this, and there's a lot of problems by doing this if you don't have all of the car and rotating stuff isn't supposed to be like this. Almost every game that has rotation, has it first thing or only has it for new things so it won't prevent players from waiting to buying original items which is what is going to happen in the game right now. I doubt that the devs would have time to change the rotation every single time for years and it seems like they sent their goals too high. It took them almost a year to get the pass and even that is still bugged. But lets talk about the main problems that this feature has to offer, not this. Also @Nitrotypegrndr you don't need to tell me if it's "just a game" since I'm having a high effort discussion about the recent changes. Again, I already said multiple statements about this. One, just because it will build "hype" for a couple of people doesn't meant that it's a benefit to everyone. It will be a hassle to most players out there and even if it's a short wait time, it shouldn't be the case for something that is supposed to be available at anytime. I honestly thought more of you would agree with me but it seems like every one of you liked it instead of realizing how annoying it can be to a lot of people. There's absolutely no reason to do this, it will only build hype by forcing people to wait until a car releases and like I said before, saying that it will be a short wait time doesn't make it good, people would still have to wait for something so simple and small. It shouldn't be like this in order to get a car you want. While it's fine to make stuff based on other games, it's heading towards a direction where seasons will just come month after month with repetitive content and therefore, things will get bland after a couple of years and even worse, they aren't doing this for fun, but in order to get more people to buy Gold in a way that shouldn't be the case. Yes, I know that they need to make money but the free rewards require you to work so much that it doesn't seem worth it and this is why I don't like the dealership rotation. Is it seriously just me on this? To add on even more to what I say, I would much rather get a car immediately for getting the right amount of money instead of waiting for the rotation to go through. If I have enough money, I should have the right to buy the car as soon as I get enough money, this game isn't that complex enough for something like this every single day in my opinion. The "hype" you get from waiting cars is just a thing that will support this feature, but that still doesn't make it good if you're getting what I'm saying. Getting "hype" but having to wait for a certain amount of time to get the car you want won't connect well. If we are talking about "hype," we can say that you will get a much better feeling for reaching the right amount of money you need to get a certain car and not having to wait at all instead of being forced to wait for something that you didn't even do. I can just say that releasing more event cars will be good for the new players yet it still won't be a good idea for the people who got it as it will make season/events less special. This is the exact same situation with this. The "hype" you get from this won't actually be natural but forced as it will be created from the rotation and not the fact that these things are new, which they aren't. This is why I think this won't be as good of a feature as it's intended as it forces people to wait to get the car they want which doesn't even get justified by the fact that some people will be excited to get a car after waiting. If they are honestly "hyped" from waiting, shouldn't we originally make it so that all cars are unlocked with the only requirement being money instead of adding more and more requirements that would require them to get a simple car they want? This was already a thing with levels but now this is practically replacing it in a way that doesn't even matter how active you are in the game, but when you see the things you want at a random time which doesn't make it as good as it sounds. @AceTyperYT It seems like you're trying to go against me by saying that I'm writing too much. That doesn't change my opinion in anyway. How is it not a downgrade? Waiting any amount of time is literally a flaw to something that already doesn't make you wait time. There isn't any reward you get from waiting or doing this and people shouldn't wait. It just seems like you're saying that because you have all of the cars but having to complete it with extra months in order to get one car, then to get more money, skip a cycle of rotation, repeat it for every car will be a pain in the neck. There's no reason to make this, and that's actually a fact, not an opinion. There's absolutely nothing you can get from this except "hype" which people wouldn't even get in the first place if they actually got the car they wanted right away. No one agrees with me that there isn't any reason to do this and selling will potentially just be gone from updating it into this? Really? Waiting "a few weeks" to get the car you want sounds like it's fine, but it's not. It only will happen for the one car you want which means that you will need to wait months and cycle through many rotations in order to get every single car. It's supposed to be a simple racing typing game and they are making the dealership way too complicated than what it's supposed to be. Just let people get their own cars, it shouldn't take that much time or effort. I'm just saying that there will be so many flaws to this from imagining it. One of them being the waiting, another being the fact that there isn't any reason/purpose to do this and the third being that it doesn't make any sense if you just want to get the cars you want. Ignore the paragraphs, I'm trying to make a point here and the reasons that prove that this will be a good idea for the longer term is that it will build "hype" which doesn't justify once again on how much people have to wait. It doesn't matter if you just think it will be weeks, it will be much worse than just getting the cars you should want to get. Also, the "hype" isn't even actually something that should even exist in the first place as there was no waiting needed in order to get some cars so therefore, there doesn't even need to be hype, if you already got the stuff you wanted and this is why I think those reasons aren't very good to support rotation in the game. Don't ask me to go to another game, I'm talking about this game specifically and it's not proving anything that my reasons are invalid. Think about it from my side, how many people would actually want this? Why would you want to get hype from this if you could have already gotten the stuff you wanted? Why would you want to wait, it doesn't matter if it's weeks, months, etc, it's still something that shouldn't cause you to wait. There isn't anything you can get from this besides hype? Making the game more challenging? Making the cars more rarer? Those don't even fully support that adding this is a good idea. If I could have gotten all of the cars, then it should stay like that and not be like a problem that you have because "you weren't here a year ago." That's not right and it would be fine if they just did it for the new items as those don't really affect what you're purchasing but cars are the main aspect of the game that anyone should get. Again, there is literally no benefit, no reason, and no purpose to do this. Why would you want hype from something that could cause you to wait for weeks? That wouldn't be building the hype but forcing it for something that everyone else has. They shouldn't make you wait nor force you to get a car that everyone else already got from the rotation, it's about your decision on what car you want, not the game. I know that people don't just like one car but people should still have the freedom to choose any car they want from the shop. If you were a new player, and you had to do 240 races to get a car and you wanted to instantly buy a car from the dealership only to find out that it's not a car that you don't really want, you will probably need to wait for days or even weeks to just get a car you want or another car that fits you well. A good batch of new players wouldn't like this as this will be their first impression on the game. Before you bring up achievement cars, I'm talking about in general as getting achievement cars will take a while since you will need to race a lot. Waiting weeks isn't something you should be hyped about. That's not what I'm talking about. I'm not talking about the group buy thing. Making a simple bug fix or an minor update doesn't grant you more real life money instantly. How does that actually make more money? I just don't get how you're getting all of this from. Just because he has a greater mindset for something doesn't necessary mean everything he says is true because I definitely know that updates like that doesn't give you more money from game development. Some of the stuff he's saying is that "waiting should be fine" which shouldn't as it never has been like this before, and it just forces everyone to wait to get a car they want, even if they do or don't know what car they want. Imagine waiting a day or two in order to get a basic sports car rotated to a car you want, it won't be fun and I really don't see anything positive from this except hype, which isn't even considered a good thing if you can't even get a car you want after a couple of weeks. It shouldn't work like that.
