PROGRESS UPDATE
Well, this update is long overdue, the last post was over a month ago. so I’ll get you updated on what’s happening:
PATREON
The Community Rim Pack Patreon is LIVE! check it out HERE, we’ve got some Tiers with additional benefits, from dedicated discord access to your own personal requests getting features in future packs, be sure to check them out People who voted for a backer option on the poll will be notified with a link to the Patreon as well.
ADDITIONAL POLL RESULTS (FROM THE NOVEMBER SURVEY)
In the previous survey, you had the option to vote on what kind of content will be in future surveys. I’d like to dedicate this post to the results of these questions:
Q: What era would you like to see more of?
Conclusion: After removing the most popular era from the October poll, the votes have shifted in favor towards the already popular 00s Category and the 90s and 80s have passed the 70s in popularity.
A: For the next survey, we’ll be changing the way eras are represented in the survey, we’re going to make sure that each era has an equal amount of wheels, and the most voted era will get an additional set of choices. The most popular era from the last survey will return and the 00s will be removed for the next survey. We will be looking at the suggestion thread again for our new survey entries.
Q: And which region?
Conclusion: During this survey, the popularity of the Asian and European regions have swapped.
A: We’re going to try and keep the regions represented in the surveys in order of popularity, but the next survey will be made significantly smaller, so we might not be able to give the more popular regions extra options.
Q: And do you prefer aftermarket or original equipment wheels?
Conclusion: OEM Preference has grown slightly.
A: Our focus on new wheels for the survey will remain biased towards Original Equipment Manufactured wheels. Personal Picks by backers do not fall under this.
COMMUNITY FEEDBACK
As with the previous survey, there was a text field in which you could write feedback, suggestions, and commentary, 20 people have responded and I’ll go over all the responses below:
View feedback and responses
There is way too much duplication in this survey; not only among the different classes, but at least a dozen options - if not more - are essentially duplicates of wheels we already have in Automation. Please be more careful selecting options. Also, I get you don’t like modern wheels, but we are absolutely dying for more options, so put it back on. You could literally run a survey with only '10s wheels, make them all and it would only make a tiny dent in our need.

A: Understandable, have a nice day… Actually, no, I would like to know what exactly it was that was duplicating stuff we have ingame. A lot of new additions to the survey were actually done via Player suggestions, so you’re telling me we have all somehow missed these wheels being in the game already. And you’re getting more Modern wheel options, the next pack and the pack that follows are going to be pretty much solely modern wheels.
Keep it up lads

Good old Japanese aftermarket rims fron the 70-80s
9/26/2019 2:17 AM
A: Yes 70s and 80s Japanese aftermarket rims look good, They’d look even better if you submitted them to our suggestion thread.

A: Since you asked nicely, Soon™
What if there were concept car rims?
9/26/2019 3:08 AM
A: What if there already are concept rims? Our last survey contained a set of wheels from the Vision Lagonda Concept, and they made it into the final selection.
I know I’ve been a bit negative about parts of this survey before, but really I am very thankful for what you all are doing for the community. Thanks

A: Thanks for the suggestions, you can post them in the suggestion thread and if they’re popular enough, they’ll be put into the survey.
Look at the SAAB wide 3-spoke rims on the 900 and 9000 models.
9/26/2019 10:55 AM
A: There’s like a million different Saab Tri-spokes once you find the ones you want, and they’re not the ones we already have ingame, be sure to post them in the suggestion thread.

9/26/2019 3:22 PM
A: This project is focused primarily on wheels at the moment, but I’ve passed your suggestion along to the Automation Discord.
Keep up the good work!

No suggestion, just thank you for your work!
9/29/2019 5:24 AM
Thank you for your great work!
9/29/2019 7:03 PM
A: Thank you for the kind responses, we’ll keep doing our best to bring you new content, and we hope that with the launch of the Rim Pack Patreon, it’ll be easier to do so without having to worry too much about the financial side of things.
THE NEXT SURVEY
I don’t want to make promises that I can’t keep, so we’re going to wait for a while and see how the Patreon goes. Once we reach a certain amount of funding, we can start thinking about doing more surveys and packs, maybe not on the usual monthly basis, but more like a quarterly release.
This concludes the progress update
