The update video I linked is from October 4, 2016, and I can't find any playthrough videos of the Senseless Destruction campaign prior to October of that year. Edit: nvm, I need to update myself on the thread
This has been confirmed to be false. IIRC Whybeare made his account look like Gabester's to prevent people from knowing his real account.
people think WhyBeAre is Gabester because in a video explaining how to get the steam key for beamng to work he used the inspect command online to change his forum acc name to Gabester so that ppl wouldnt know his real acc name, and sort of as a joke to those who use the forums, and it turned into the urban legend that WhyBeAre is Gabester because he was the biggest beamng youtuber for basically its entire golden age, and because he used console commands in alot of his videos, to simulate the wind, change gravity, or edit other in game values before it was easily done through the gui, people probably thought he had access to the game code, and advanced knowledge of its workings. and for the icing on the cake he was incredibly vague and secretive on his life outside of youtube for pretty much his entire career, and since we knew virtually nothing about Gabester either, most people assumed it was the same person.... It went from being a theory few took seriously to a forum wide inside joke that just lot alot of new players didnt get as WhyBeAre began to fade out as BeamNG became more popular
At this point I will have to make a special category and trophy about the best legend of BeamNG in the BeamNG Modding Awards 2022 xDDD
oh the rabbithole of old obscure 2015-2018 era conspiracy posts is intense one year with no new car really does something to people
no i mean inbetween the hopper and the wentward there was a solid year of no new vehicles, in 2017, which prompted a ton of theories on why there wasnt a new vehicle --- Post updated --- its a trike imo but still pretty cool
i know the feeling!! it may look like im new, but thats because my old account broke so i made this one,also that, and "ME LIKE SUPER CAR! LET ME CRASH IT INTO TREE!"and "WEN RELEZ"
The wigeon would have been far more interesting if the frame was inverted, two front wheels one rear wheel.
im sure that can easily be accomplished via the reverse gear and even more worthy of being pigeon related
That's the whole point, the Pigeon is hell to drive too, and still it's in the game for some reasons xD.
if i recall correctly (and this might be another one of those theories) it originated as a joke vehicle designed for shits and giggles, which is why it was so absurdly stupid in the early versions, with the overpowered 600cc engine that made it a menace to try and drive with the pedal to the metal, in later versions they (in some aspects) made its absurdity a little more tame
