At some point we were started to lose ground under our feet. "We put many extra modules, content, functionalities (like Barnfind or Junkyard) into CMS 18, going after our fanbase's voice. The root of the problem was having eyes bigger than their stomach. It was our great mistake." But it was also a surprise: "On release day, thousands of players started to play, at the same moment, and find all those bugs, we were a little shocked." "The launch version was way too bugged and it never should have gone on sale. "Honestly we didn't expect so many problems," Kuba Trzebiński of devs Red Dot Games and publisher PlayWay tells me.
Note: quotes have been edited slightly for translation-based clarity. CMS18 launched in a rather troubled state, rife with bugs and interface peculiarities, but to the credit of both developers and players, it was rapidly and repeatedly patched, backlash was restrained and the result is an excellent game that's rarely far from the upper reaches of the Steam best-sellers chart.īut what, exactly happened - and are the developers now confident that CMS is ship-shape? Also: what is it about this superficially car-nerds-only game that makes it so compelling to almost anyone willing to pick up a virtual wrench? Car Mechanic Simulator 2018, the curiously zen-like, genre-defying game of hypnotic vehicular repair, is very much back on the road these days, but it was not ever thus.
