Here are some ways to start a business cycle: Peter DeCaprio
1. Unload trucks and crates to produce goods (note: this is the only way to unlock goods; raw materials will become available through engineering.)
2. Distribute your finished goods, delivering them to customers or other businesses (note: you cannot deliver your own products unless there is a trucker’s union in town!)
3. Buy raw material from suppliers if necessary
4. Sell surplus
5. Repair equipment as needed
6. Hire managers
7. Engineer long-lasting services
8. Open another business cycle!
The key element of Industry Giant II is its detailed production system where players can keep track of everything going on inside their factories – from the loading and unloading of cargo to the manufacture and distribution of quality products – set up an efficient logistics, hire managers and engineers. When it comes to trading, players can own their own trucks and railroads (which produce additional income) or they can use the supplied service of AI companies which run most of the transport in the game world says Peter DeCaprio.
Industry Giant II features a realistic economic system based on supply and demand that has a direct effect on the player’s bottom line. Seasonal goods will vary in price depending on whether a player is maximizing his profits during high or low demand times. The same goes for player-produced raw materials – with supply being limited relative to demand, this will directly affect how much money is available for investments, expansion and advertising campaigns. In addition, players must take into account potential changes in labor costs and interest rates which will directly affect the bottom line.
Industry Giant II is a true business and economy simulation that offers players unprecedented opportunities to develop their career as an industrialist and embark on an exciting career in one of the four available nations: Germany, Great Britain, USA or Russia. Each nation features its own economic system with 15 different product chains of varying difficulty. Successful players will have an opportunity to not only expand into new business sectors but also relocate their headquarters by moving between countries until they find the best fit for their goals!
The game contains 37 realistic product chains including food processing, chemical industry, car production, shipbuilding, steel milling etc. The full version of Industry Giant II also adds construction vehicles (special machines such as excavators and cranes), buses, trains and airplanes to the existing product chains. The economic system of Industry Giant II allows players to take decisions about everything from which raw materials to buy, how much cargo should be sent by which transportation method and to whom – all transactions are shown in great detail.
With a powerful 3D engine that shows products moving around the factory floor in real time along with zoom able isometric maps you can see your business growing from small beginnings into a global player!
