Section 117 defines the racing crew, personal garage, and apartment hub contract for the Carbon and NFSU2 inspired career loop. The presentation target is a premium street-racing workspace and lived-in Def Jam inspired apartment, with tool-first UI surfaces and cosmetic-only social visits.
Crew System#
The crew system recruits a Carbon-style 3-5 AI crew and launches with five members covering Blocker, Scout, Fabricator, Drafter, and Mechanic specialties. Every crew member has a backstory id and recruitment cinematic id. Loyalty is affected by player treatment and race outcomes; high loyalty improves race assistance and low loyalty can cause a crew member to leave.
Garage Hub#
The personal garage is explorable in first person and third person. It displays up to 10 vehicle slots and supports per-vehicle lift, inspect, and customize interactions. Decorations cover posters, neon, tool wall, lift colors, and floor texture. Garage upgrades expose more vehicle slots, more customization equipment, faster repair, and faster install benefits.
Apartment Hub#
The apartment hub cross-references the Def Jam aesthetic in Section 24.2 and the signature graffiti tag display in Section 35.3. It is a customizable living space with trophy showcase, photo-mode gallery, vehicle-key wall, crew-photo wall, and signature graffiti tag display. Apartment upgrades progress Studio to Loft to Penthouse, with per-tier decor budget, crew-meeting space, and story arc unlocks.
Per-Vehicle Actions#
Garage vehicle actions cross-reference Section 100 customization and include lift, inspect, customize, repair, refuel, and tune. Repair, refuel, and tune remain available through the garage menu so the player can prep a vehicle without leaving the hub.
Online Visits#
Friend-Garage visits let invited friends view the garage and vehicles while remaining cosmetic-only. Crew-Apartment visits let crew-mates visit the apartment as cosmetic-only social presence.
Progression#
Garage and apartment tier unlocks are transparent and tied to career progression, race winnings, and crew loyalty.
