I absolutely LOVE when the Beam-Team comes out of left field with a totally unique vehicle that nobody was expecting. I'm so excited!
I know that the new map is almost confirmed to be an Automation map remaster by now but this teaser makes me hope for some expansion of that map, although I don't know how common (eastern) European fire engines are in New Zealand..... Leave it to the B-Team, I guess
Man, the new fire truck looks great! My guess is that it's an old German heavy duty BOF truck, made by ETK, and this is the Feuerwehr variant. And since it's a heavy duty BOF truck, I think it's obvious that the Feuerwehr isn't gonna be the only conversion available. Plus (and this depends on the age of the truck and the era it was produced in), it's gonna be interesting seeing what engines this car is gonna have because, with the exception of the Gavril T-Series, the game lacks some naturally aspirated diesels from the lore, at least for the lighter duty models.
Yeeeees!! The Polizei variant will go nicely with an I-Series dressed up with this livery!! And the Dakar would look ace, especially with 42in tires!! The RV is also needed because the truck seems large enough and the RV conversion will take advantage of it. But there's another vehicle in equal need of an RV conversion and that's the H-Series. Seeing the Ambulance and Cargo Box Upfits of the H-Series really makes me think that an RV Upfit would also fit that car very nicely.
Ompf, the best thing that could happen to the I-series when it gets remastered finally is an 80s Polizei variant with the absurdly large lightbar!
So, now we have 2 new cars and 1 remaster confirmed. Will they all come in 0.27 ? Who knows. Since it's a truck, maybe it'll bring a T-series remaster along with it ? If that's the case, i expect it to be for 0.28.
My grandfather build a camper out of an old Mercedes van very similar to this So im keeping my fingers crossed
