they start paying one companies,other companies will also start demanding.That way there development cost will go up

No you don't know what you're talking about. They don't have to pay companies so that they can damage model their cars. Look at Forza. They have Porsches, Lamborghini's, and ferarri's with damage and I doubt that they paid and Polyphony didn't. It just comes down to whether Polyphony had the time to damage model al the cars and they didn't.

They had to model 1000 cars and 60 tracks to perfection. GT5 is pretty much a beta test for PD in terms of damage. They just want to see how everyone responds to it. If they like it, i'm sure they will invest more time into GT6 and have it fully damage compatible for all cars.

 

No publisher specifically pay's for crash damage to be included in their games.When they pay to license cars for their game,they have the freedom to do whatever they want to do with those cars in the game.All games like NFS,Forza,etc have to pay for licenses.GT doesn't have to license,they just get it for free but without the freedom to add damage to cars.

What the fuck are you talking about (Sorry)? So you're saying that GT5 doesn't have damage because PD wouldn't pony up the cash for it? Firstly, PD can do whatever the fuck they want and car companies can't do shit about it because they are PD. If they wouldn't allow PD to support damage in their game then PD would just remove their cars from the game and they would lose brand exposure to more than 50 million people worldwide (estimated).

Secondly,  GT as a franchise sells over 10 million copies with every installment. I'm pretty sure that the reason that most cars don't have damage in GT5 isn't that they are short on cash. It is because they didn't want to spend the majority of their time modeling damgage on over 1000 cars.

Edit: I also never stated that companies have to pay for crash damage. When I addressed it I was talking from a theoretical point of view. I meant to say that IF they had to pay to have crash damge in their game, then they would have, just like Turn 10.
