Update Speculation thread

To me it feels like forever since we haven't had a new car in ages... I am so excited!

 

Who knows if this AE86-styled car would be a Ibishu or a Hirochi...

 

my guess would be the update will come close to the 25th just because holiday celebration, but yeah it has been a while since an update happened, we will just have to wait and see

 

Surely the devs will have other things to do on christmas day other than writing a change log and pushing out an update. Plus, they don't have a history of releasing updates for the holidays, my guess would be the update coming out any time in december.

 

So far Hirochi is this "ultra mega hyper sports car company that creates sports car sports cars"

While Ibishu is the one that makes more sense to be alike what jap cars were. I am kinda bothered that it seems they want to keep it like that. I would love to see something more of a supercar (like a skyline or RX7 or Supra copy) with an ibishu logo and the 86 with the hirochi logo.


After all, the Covet is based on a Honda Civic, and the Sunburst is a copy of a mix between the Mitsubishi Evo and the Toyota GT86.

 

There is an IBISHU logo on the AE86 type wheels. Are you blind?

 

yes. i said that i would like it to be a hirochi so that they break the routine of hirochi making fast cars and ibishu making slow cheap cars. Are you blind?

 

2 month and 2 day if release tomorrow, probably the longest third digit update since v0.3 to v0.3.1

--post updated--
Correction:
2 months and 5 days, as my statistics tell me this update will be the fourth longest update if devs release this tomorrow

 

when was the longest time in between updates?

 

Update will come out on the 16th and the pug fix update on the 23rd.
If the big update came out on the 23rd we'd have to wait until after Xmas holidays (for the devs) for a bugfix, which can be a problem...

 

I would enjoy a pug fix one in a while, as well with a update

 

Man. I need that pug fix. Cant live without them.

 

I guess the mug fix was the last update we received.

 

Half of that won't be around for a long time, she me of that hasn't even been begun, and one of those things will never really happen....

So, I guess the update might come soon....
Either before or after Christmas break....
Or exactly on Christmas morning, which would be really interesting

 

OR it could never come out. You never know...
Obviously it will, probably (hopefully) tomorrow.

 

YES PLEASE!

I think the hopper is likely.
