If they take inspiration from drive world or vehicle legends with their fake car models they can recover. The lambo sto in drive world for example. Lamborghini can't say its a lambo because in reality it's not but it's still recognizable to players. Colour scheme and everything. Shape. Or bugatti chiron. Change the small details. That way the game can recover.
It was very sad as an OG player to see this game rise and destroyed, I didn’t mind the crates personally until my Murci SV was removed. This eventually led me to quit the game entirely, I thought that there was no point in ever playing this game again. If this continues, it’ll doom the whole car community of Roblox.
The Alpha tester Merci SV being removed was the beginning of me quitting the game, and that was over a year ago. The crates were the final nail in the wall.
stopped playing after the renaming, back when it was still wayfort was the best remember when we used to have races on the highway and split the cars between the two lanes, >1mill one side,
I remember, i finally got the Chiron in the game. i was soo happy as it was one of my goals for years. then, i logged on the next day, and it was gone.....
2021/22 Driving Empire was the best, I'm glad that it happened. Late 2021 was when Driving Empire got a glow up, and 2022 was when there were so much fun updates despite being released monthly. And now I'm still playing this game unless it gets worse then i might wanna migrate to a different game, but that's a nice documentary of Driving Empire you made there. Reminds me of the good DE times.
Im so glad someone has noticed and a whole video about it. I´ve loved this game for so long and quit right after the ferrari´s got removed because I had the special edition of the F40 and some others. Farewell DE.
Old DE was probably the best time ive ever had in the game sad to see this happen, but it was bound to happen it had its fame and im still probably gonna play it every now and then but I miss it, GREAT video/ documentary about it
man i still dont get WHY car companies copyright strike games like, isnt it free advertising? like bro, if i had a car company i would freely let people use my brand in their games as long as they dont plagiarize it, i would need them to get permission from me the owner of the brand first before they use it in their game, and for free, like, can't we just drive our dream cars
@@QK_62 good point, but if i were the car company i would happily give them permission because i would want my brand to be well known, it's basically speedrunning getting famous
I played this game when it was called way fort but after half an hour I left, I played driving empire after an year and realised wayfort was renamed, I built interest and got a Lamborghini Murcielago and stopped playing again.after a more year I was so sad that Lamborghini was gone😢but then I grinded for a McLaren and now I finally play this game non stop
I wonder which party is to blame for causing this, voldex for the trash update or the fatherless kids who reported the game to the irl companies. Both parties are huge assholes in this situation.
Tbh, I never cared how long it took for updates to release without voldex. Every single leak I saw had me hyped up for every AMAZING update. Great times
I was the richest person in the driving empire testing with 6 trillion… it was so fun driving cars ive dreamt off to drive. Now its closed. I started playing the original one and i instantly left be ause it doesnt make sense. I spent 1 million dollars for a ferrari and it gets removed. So im stuck with a porsche thats slow as hell. Ive always dreamt off having vip before the current map released. Now, im glad i didnt. RIP Driving Empire We Will Miss You In Our Hearts. 😢
R.I.P DE it was so good in it’s prime, the crates really killed me and took me forever to get my money back, but hey it’s okay, I will forever miss the good times
i've been playing Driving Empire/Wayfort ever since it came out it's been my favorite car game for years. but sadly i recently quit due to all the cars leaving and lack of updates. all i hope for is that they fix what they have done.
thank god you stated the name, alpha. i could not remember it. remember the long highway, crappy chassis, those houses near the dealer (or far, dont rember much) and that sooo small dealership, which was black, with those spinning wheels (6 of them) with cars on top, where the best car was the koenigsegg agera? good times. came back from school 4 years ago, started playing it, i felt soo happy that this is better than vehicle sim. i dont play much anymore, because this game got worse and worse. THIS VOLDEX RUINED IT. we thought voldex would improve the game, abit they did, but they did make it alot worse. i swear, i just want to go back 4 years ago. those days when loud music would get you banned off the game.. those days when the car meets was near the dealer, then they all would race in the highway.. then next update, those days you could do car meets near kfc... people with bugattis and venom gts flexing their aerodynamic spoiler. those women or roleplayers roleplaying in the houses. golden days. i feel bad for bourgist man. it makes me sad thinking about this game.
Heh, I never really played Driving Empire but I played tons of Wayfort. Not gonna lie, my heart lies with Vehicle Simulator beta, I consider that to be the peak of ROBLOX driving sims. Kinda stopped caring about all of them once I got Forza and Assetto Corsa
I’ve played DE since the Wayfort days and Quit last year when I got a Wheel and moved to games on steam like Assetto Corsa, BeamNG and RFactor 2. Even though DE is a bad game, I still had fun playing it.
I still remember being so excited for the "big update" with all the opening doors and kits...2022 was peak imo for this game. After all the hours and memories I've spent in this game, I'm truly saddened that it had to end like this...Either way, I'm still grateful for discovering this game back in December 2020. R.I.P Driving Empire...
I've been playing Driving Empire since the beginning, when the game was called WayFort beta. Today I don't even turn it on anymore because I'm tired of the game and despite the fact that they added houses that were in WayFort beta but not the ones that were added recently, despite the fact that they are updated now, one of the the best are the houses of the story sets for this game
i actually have the bkm v10 back from the 2020 holiday event. its one of my oldest car in my collection. also i got the ferrari f355 but it got removed I remember playing wayfort back then, it was the best game i ever played. I still sometimes grind the game, but it doesnt fell the same anymore.
The fact that right now they are bringing back limited cars and putting it as a dealership car, all the grind and everything for nothing, you don’t even get a compensation for coming out of limited
Damn this video gives me so much chills and nostalgia. I’m still disappointed to lose all my cars and passion on this game I have been playing since 2019 when the nissan 370z nismo was still in the game 😢. All the limited Ferraris, diablo, and miura sv, gone. Vehicle Legends it is now..
As a player who's been around since alpha, this video made me cry. It's sad to see that this game has come into this state. Voldex and the community both had their part for this game's downfall. Bourgist and the old development team put out a lot more effort with the game and model qualities, sad to see that so many of these things that made DE a great game is gone. It's been fun DE.
dev anger community and not listen,community decide its time to be violence but choose the most retarded method of violence and affect every other roblox car game,and here we are
i still remember the time when it was still wayfort, after i stopped to play the game a bit, i was really surprised how it changed but when i see what voldex did with the crate system, i think driving empire will never be on top ever again, also another drama started happened as soon the ferrari removal happened, some people got high suspicious on voldex since other game such as Greenville, SWFL... didnt bother to remove/put offsale ferrari vehicle, same for pagani vehicle and didnt even got anys issue that caused a rumor that voldex fake the whole stuff about they need to remove brand since that infect also the whole car driving community
just came back to this game expecting new and exciting content, instead all my best cars got removed, i just have an empty inventory and almost 300m...
I remember back when it was called wayfort...god i grinded it so much,was so fun and probably in its prime,the downfall already started from rework itself
Remembered when I first played this game in September 2019 on the old map good times playing hide n seek with SixThrone and old mods Lutz met some good people over the years and im glad I got to experience it in its golden years.
The reason that the spookfest 2022 event had bearely any players was because the amount of candy you got was so low and everyone didnt wanna grind 5 hours to get 1 of the cars
I quitted the game when crates are out,thinking things won’t get worse,so I think I might,and will come back to the game. Before going back to the game I see this video. A crap ton of bad stuff happened that I didn’t even think it will happen. Really sad to see how it’s going such a big downhill,wish things will get better.
I used to play wayfort. But seeing it developed into driving empire makes me miss the old days but its fun. The way the update changed everything for the worst part
I played Driving Empire from the beginning. When it was officially released to the public. I was mostly planing Dungeon Quest around 2018. I took a small break from Dungeon Quest and i randomly joined my friend. Who was playing Driving Empire (around 2019). After an hour of just driving around, i enjoyed the game a lot. The designs were very detailed than most of the other racing games i’ve played. Everything was just cool but the grinding part was a bit boring. Racing however was competitive and fun to challenge others and practice. Fast forward to 2022-23, i lost interests in the game when Voldex took over. I predicted from that moment something will go wrong. And i was not surprised when people started to turn away from Driving Empire. I quitted a while ago now. And man I agree that Lambo redesign does not look like a lamborghini. Playing Drive world atm it’s very peaceful, lots to do.
That is reason why I have been moved to Car Dealership Tycoon (Even though the detail is gross, but it’s price friendly and more fun to play than Driving Empire)
Don’t be sad that the good times are over be happy that they happened DE will forever be in are hearts RIP
This is gonna make me cry😢😢
Yea it’s pretty sad that the cars we once dreamed of getting are gone
Bro, the face in your pp is my exact reaction to Driving Empire's story
@@aminabdullayev1545 same here bro
I didn’t start playing till this year I missed everything good 😢
I will prob end up making something similar if the game doesn't recover

@@williamsu4889 at least we can enjoy the memories we made
I lost basically every single limited edition ferrari and the 812 comp, miura sv, and diablo. And I can feel your pain.
The Alpha tester Merci SV being removed was the beginning of me quitting the game, and that was over a year ago. The crates were the final nail in the wall.
This is why game devs should never sell their games to large companies. It almost never goes well
stopped playing after the renaming, back when it was still wayfort was the best
remember when we used to have races on the highway and split the cars between the two lanes, >1mill one side,
i only ever played it as wayfort, eventually came back to it when it was renamed and didnt like it lol
I love how voldex got away with adding the Revuelto and a close model of the Veneno
Went from the goat to a shadow of it's former self
I remember, i finally got the Chiron in the game. i was soo happy as it was one of my goals for years. then, i logged on the next day, and it was gone.....

I really like the way where the game is going right now on my new account, but im still missing the old cars and events I got before… that’s sad
I’m an og I remember playing way fort and watching UA-camrs play it
I used to play when this game was still Wayfort Beta... now I don't even want to look at it.
Now Pagani is back. The actual cars. we are now going to experience the RISE of Driving Empire by Voldex.
I used to love driving empire.. but now i lost
Interest..
Its so sad how DE fell into wrong hands..
only real ogs remember when it was called wayfort
Watfort was great I got like the electric Porche and the old firebird
made me tear up. all the RP memories, all the grinding memories.... RIP Driving Empire 2019-2023. fucked up by voldex
I played this game when it was called way fort but after half an hour I left, I played driving empire after an year and realised wayfort was renamed, I built interest and got a Lamborghini Murcielago and stopped playing again.after a more year I was so sad that Lamborghini was gone😢but then I grinded for a McLaren and now I finally play this game non stop
I remember playing it with my older brother when it was called wayfort, ahh the memories
FUUUUUUUCK
The whole of voldex needs to be UNDER investigation by the police voldex decided to bring gambling to kids for that straight up prison for a good 1 yr
Somehow I know that the video will be great. The story of DE is now felt film-ready, cool that you make a video about this topic! I'm already hyped!
It was the rise, then the fall, then the freaking SKYROCKET!! Here we are getting LAMBORGHINI LICENSED THIS WEEK!!!
Can we get a respect how phonian gives wayfort to bourgist show he could make it better for people
I was waiting for someone to make a vid on this, I'm glad you did.
R.I.P. DE.

It’s just sad to see our favourite car game slowly dissolving into nothingness….
Driving Empire… please don’t die out like all other games who failed…
Moral of the story : *Don't sell your masterpiece game to voldex it's not worth it* if you are selling your game like racing games you should keep it
DE was once my favorite game, I would just go home, turn on my laptop and just play it. Now it's so boring.

I started playing Driving Empire in 2020, specifically on my winter break. It's unfortunate to see how it is now today, RIP.
This was nice, i learned a lot about Driving Empire.
The shocking part was Vehicle Legends Owner was Driving Empire's owner first
I was playing this game since it was created, and named "Wayfort Alpha",
but then, it slowly became a game about grinding and casino for kids

just came back to this game expecting new and exciting content, instead all my best cars got removed, i just have an empty inventory and almost 300m...
