Update Speculation thread

Speaking of trees, I think having destructible trees in BeamNG.Drive would be pretty cool. I don't want them in the level immediately when you spawn the level, but I would be like to be able to spawn them from the vehicle menu.

 

Trees don't care about your car; don't drive into them, even smaller ones.

 

If tree is under 5cm of thickness, it will bend over.

 

was that first car a Z?
dang...

 

I'm just desperately waiting for the Burnside to get 4 barrel carb options for the base V8, which would have be era-appropriate as a "power pack" option.

 

Okay, I just checked the devblog and there hasn't been anything new on it yet since Nov 14, 2019. I'm hoping that the devs will post something new about this upcoming update soon.

By the way, I have a question.

Do you think that Small Island USA will get an update in this upcoming update?

You can explain why you think or don't think that the map is getting an update.

[By the way, if you want to, you can check out the (my thoughts on copyright) thread in off-topic if you want.]

 

And what about the Moonhawk only having two engines?

It needs two small-blocks (one in the high 200s, another in the low 300s), a 400+ci big block, maybe an older version of the LeGran V6 and a ~400 ci big block.

Possibly a V8 diesel, too.

 

Yeah bit off topic but I grew up with that car ! ( not the digital dash version if you remember my personal mod )

 

ohh
nice
i quite like Z's
especially the Z31/32
best ones imo

 

Heh, when I was 10, at home we had the last version of Z31 when it was new. That's a facelift further from the one around
that ^ tree. Niiice memories...

 

lmao
seriously i hope they were ok. probably not tho...

 

Yeah... I crashed a few cars too unfortunately... but since motorcycling I definitely learned about responsibility !
OKAY LET'S STAY ON TOPIC NOW !
I wonder if there is going to be a new car in the update after all or not

 

Judging by the fact that we know the next car will not be the Wendover, we have literally no information on the car that's coming before it, and we know the remastered D-Series/Roamer/H-Series is coming soon, at this point I am absolutely sure that there will not be a new car in the next update.

 

I'm gonna throw my chip in and say there will probably not be a car this update.

 

yeah i agree
i would love to see atleast something, we havent gotten a new car in a bit, but maybe i am being spoiled

 

We got multiple big surprises in 0.17, so I'm not going to say "definetly no car". But it would be a surprise if we do since we haven't heard anything about it yet and between the Hopper and Gavril updates we might get a fair amount of vehicle content anyway.

 

I did the same thing and said that I felt like there wasn't going to be a car in this upcoming update back in November and someone (who's name I'm not mentioning) said otherwise. Honestly, I heard nothing from the devs about a new car yet. We'll just have to see whether or not a new car comes out in this update.

Well, we did get the Gavril Bluebuck in the last update, though that update did come out back in August which was at least 3 or 4 months ago.

You make a very good point there.

 

So, how many updates there been?

tdev said 11th Dec 2018 this:
"We planned 3 big updates next year, but we don't know what or when ourselves."
https://www.beamng.com/threads/where-are-we-going.59239/page-25#post-969905

0.16 and 0.17 counts as two big updates, so 0.18 at least was planned for this year, if there are no big issues preventing that of course.

Hence my guess there being an update by 16th of this month could be solid, but you never know, devs are pretty good at surprising.

 

Yes, we know?

Spending holidays for a bug fix might not be a thing.
