    Note that the Civetta Mondello got updated since the video! Now it has better 3D model, openable doors, working shifter etc. Now I would move it to the "consider purchasing" category from the "not sure it worth buying" category.

    Paid mods seem kinda sketchy when the next game update can break them and most people don't keep their old mods up to date. Beam seems like the community should keep mods more free and open so other people can update them if they want.

    Yea; I have dozens upon dozens of games that each can run hundreds of mods; knowing how things generally work between games and mods, means I know the very real likelihood of game updates breaking mods, mods breaking games, mod incompatibility with other mods, and I know how common it is for "Sorry, I don't play X anymore, so I don't update this mod anymore" - it's rarely a monetary issue for the mod creators to create or support their mods, it's usually down to simply becoming disinterested in the core product. Hey, fair enough when you're providing all that for free with zero expectation at the gate for money; it's entirely different when someone paid for that content, if I paid for a mod, I damn well expect that thing to stay up to date, remain supported, and have no mod conflicts with other mods; this is the double edged sword of "Paid mods" - expectations, and I don't think a lot of mod creators are really ready to meet those long term expectations. out of principal, I will NEVER use a mod that demands money up-front to use, because that's me paying for content with expectations of quality and longevity of support; sometimes I'm willing to throw some spare change I have at mods I really enjoy that give me the choice to donate to them and their creators - I know it's not a lot of money, but that's me giving out of appreciation, not expectation... The other arm of why I will never use "Paid mods" - quality; as soon as someone starts doing anything creative with the expectation of financial gain, it takes a toll on their work quality, this is a very real subject for a lot of creatives; money sets standards, standards set boundaries, boundaries can limit creativity; it's why so many games as a baseline suck now, they're made for profit, not out of genuine care or respect for the medium, and the way it can be used to express and create stories - it's just "how much money can we make with [product]" - as soon as people start expecting money for works of passion, it turns it into a job, as soon as it's a job, they stop taking bold and creative risks... I will never support mods that demand payment, because I don't want to see passion turn into the same stagnant shit that made gaming as bland and corporate as it is today in the mod making communities. And lastly; Steam & Bethesda 2015 "experiment" already showed exactly how abusable "Paid Mods" can and would likely become if it was openly supported; abuse, theft, price gouging, lies, deceit, drama; no one wants this except the people who will abuse it for money or clout. I wish these mod creators the best and hope they continue to do good work, but I won't be supporting them with my wallet if it's demanded up-front.

    When it comes to paid mods, they must offer something which is deemed "worthy" of the price tag. If the content provided is of a similar or higher quality than the content in the game, it can be paid. But if it is like that Civetta Mondello example, it doesn't deserve the price tag. (which, the Mondello is too close to a GTA car based on the same IRL car. It feels cheap just by association.)

He's been caught up massively with school however recently has been working on fixing it, but progress is slow. I do love however, how you mentioned the positives instead of highlighting the negatives, nice review overall. :)

    imo paid mods should basically be a sort of "early access" type of thing,rather than locking out people who wish to use it,but i respect their decisions,though,if you make a mod exclusively paid,that's just gonna cause mod piracy,there's a reason there's pushback against paid mods,most ms flight simulator mods/addons are paid,and expensive too,the guy who made the r20 (which looking back does look pretty mediocre,no offense to the creator,its a fine mod,but it doesn't look that good) did it right in that regard,extra configs if you paid,rather than completely locking ALL the content behind a paywall and recently a covet pickup too,early access paid,once finished it'll be free

    There’s honestly not much of a point for modders making them paid. One, paid mods have been frowned upon for many years in the Beam community until the Raven sadly broke that trend. Two, while I get people wanna earn money for their hard work, there’s other ways to do it, seriously. And three....it’ll get reuploaded to third party sites where people get it for free, plain and simple. If a Beam mod exists, it’s most likely going to be reuploaded.

Still, I do agree with all of the mods in the video being paid because, when you pay for these mods you're enabling mod creators to actually get some income out of their hard work which is the least you could do to support a person.

    The idea of paid mods doesn't seem like a bad idea. But I do have some major gripes with it. First of all (and this is a major concern): The quantity for what you are paying for isn't there. The base game has 35 vehicles as of 0.29, and it costs 25 USD. The Gavril Scout mod comes with one vehicle and costs 4.17 USD. If I'm paying nearly 1/5 the game value, I don't think it is unreasonable for me to expect a sizable amount of content. I think KLJP and other kitchen sink packs could easily be around that price, but for 1 vehicle with an average amount of configs? It just isn't enough content. Second (this was shared by another commment below): You are spending 4 dollars taking a risk. Sure, it works well and good now, but in 3 months when the next Beam update drops, will it still work? And just as importantly, if it's broken, will the mod creator fix it? This ties back to the above concern, as BeamNG updates regularly with new content, and you're paying 25 dollars with a guarantee that says all cars should work as intended. Third: The mods need to be to vanilla standard. And there are a few problems with that. The Signia has suspension issues, the Mondello has a weird engine noise and the model has imperfections, the Picnic's rally version has a strange suspension as well. Vanilla vehicles are explicitly committed to perfection. I love the modding community, but many popular mods fall below the standard, which is why if you choose to charge for someone to use the mod, you must ensure it is dev quality.

    You have a weird sense of value. Game costs around $20 and comes with 30-ish vehicles, maps, not to mention the game itself. Yet apparently spending the same amount of money on 5 cars that aren't even official is a worthwhile purchase. And people wonder why the GTA Defective Trilogy sells so well.

    beamNG is $25 on steam. It comes with 35 vanilla cars, 14 maps (not including showroom and grid small pure) and 50 trailers and props. Lets just assume an equal weight for these in terms of work required to produce them (the maps take a lot more work than the cars, props take less, so lets just say it balances out). Add them up, you get 99. Now lets just value the game engine and physics simulation at say 100. That's a 'work' score of 199. So $25 for 199 units of work (lets say), a single car being only 1 unit of said 'work'. That equals $0.12 or $0.13 per unit of 'work', or per car. Ignore the game engine and that's still only $0.25 per car. Paid mods are overpriced. People want to feel special for making something, that's great. But, lets not value a modders time at 10-30x that of the actual developers.

    I get the idea of paid mods and the efforts that might have been put, but when it comes to gavril scout its diffrent, When i heared that it was gonna get realesed i was extremly hyped and when it came out i bought it straight away, I drove it around a bit and the van itself is okay but it feels really boring to me, Its not that something feels missing or unfinished, Everything is where it should be but it feels really boring to drive it around, cornering and handling is not great, i would always crash in a corner if i was going over 30 kph, and the configs kind of feel the same, the van isnt really fast, what i mean is that one part of the configs is poorly slow and acceleration aswell as top speed is low, while the rest appears to be a bit faster, Its not what i expected, I would say its an ok mod but not worth paying for

    they aren't worth it simply for the fact that this game is nowhere near complete and updates HAVE and WILL continue to break mods. The author of these paid mods are under no Obligation to fix their mods over and over every update until Beam is in its final state. I'd be more on-board with it if the game was finished or in a state where it could be guaranteed that any more updates wouldn't break mods.

    Got all of them from other sites with %100 discount 🏴‍☠. Interior texture quality of Scout is very low, almost like a ps2 game, otherwise it is a great mod. Picnic is fine overall. Signia is truly amazing, details and quality is astonishing. And for Mondello, even if they pay me I wouldn't keep it installed let alone paying for it.
