You gotta understand that these are licenced cars and the car maker won't allow full total damage car models in any game.Rikusaki
That's what Poly has been saying for over 10 years…..but NOW…. That's not true at all…The Forza series proves that is nothing but BS…
It's not BS.
It's completely true.
The relationship between automakers and and PD is different from other developers. Why do you think only select cars have damage?
PD is still working though issues with licensing.
Sony does not entirely back Polyphony like Microsoft backs Turn10. Money is always an issue, as is exclusive deals. However, one that most people forget are negotiations & contracts.
Remember, Polyphony doesn't work like Turn10, so when Kazunori speaks with manufacturers, chances are that they don't like what they're hearing and deny Kaz. a license.
If there is one thing that always bothered me about Gran Turismo it was that it seemed like Kazunori had too much control.
Companies like Turn 10 don't have a "Dictator" type figure running the show. You see, when you have one person making too many decisions, there is bound to be a little bias, whereas with Turn 10 it is more like "well Porsche have a rich racing pedigree and are very popular, let's have them in the game".
I don't see a licensing problem keeping some cars from having damage. That would make no sense to release a game and some cars get damaged and other don't. People will be racing with no damanging cars...... I guess anything is possible.
