Update Speculation thread

in my opinion, physics like in MudRunner will be very difficult to develop, so this is a good alternative

 

imagine how bad the frames are going to be if deformable terrain was added

 

It would probably be an option to turn on and off.

 

I think if they add it, it's because it doesn't kill the computer.

 

this literally is speculation, we have slight evidence to show that deformable terrain could potentially happen soon, and this shows how we could realistically get it.

 

i don't think soon is the coorect term, in the future, perhaps

 

Between the note in the devblog, the random addition of a quary in WCUSA, and TDev's cryptic smiley faces I think it's safe to say something is currently in the works and planned for near* future release.

 

yeah that does make more sense, I meant “soon” as in within the next couple of udpates.

 

how did the beaver mod vehicle propel thru water without this coeff. value then? mod creator is also a member of beamng now he could shed some light.

 

thrusters, right?
the beaver was pretty cheaty iirc. had a balloon-effect where you literally couldn't roll it, it would just go back upright.

 

Yeah it used thrusters im pretty sure

 

I know I may be posting this a bit early but
No teaser?
I'm not mad, they probably don't have anything to show yet for 0.28
Just wondering

Actual Speculation:
I do think that 0.28 will be on-road focused
Maybe we will get improved aero models and most certainly tire thermals
Maybe better configs for racing

 

Im counting the hints of deformable terrain from yesterday as todays teaser

 

oh

 

During the beamng stream, leeloo say no teaser before half january 2023.

 

From the Twitch stream:

Developers are still working on the ETK re-master/update, and from my understanding, the emphasis on "still" is on purpose to hint that content regarding this vehicle (or even vehicles) is going to be something big.

Slight hint, but we might get more vehicles of various sizes and specifications - one of the developers mentioned that cars will have "different colours, wheel sizes, number of doors" etc.

Quite excited for the future of vehicle-related content!

 

Didn't even know they were streaming, sounds like I gotta check that out later today
