Update Speculation thread

They deleted the image from the site... weird

 

the differing wipers, dash layout, and lack of hood visibility doesn't exclude the possibility of a schoolbus, it could be one of this style:


it could also be something like an armoured bank/riot truck

 

Fan on the dash says bus to me. But nothing is stopping them from doing an armored vehicle as well. Would make for a good escalation of force during police evasions as well

 

LETS GO
could be... fully modeled interiors in buildings?
--- Post updated ---
no wait it could be dash accessories

 

The lack of a visible hood leads me to believe it could either be a new bus (the Wentward has its own dashboard and gauges) or there is a new utility vehicle coming like a step van, adjacent of the Chevrolet P-30. Whatever it is, I'm looking forward to it

 

Willing to bet it was a school bus. I mean, it was found to be in the game files, I think, and the devs did say more expansion was coming

 

I bet it'd be a Gavril chassis and a Wentward body

 

Honestly I'm genuinely surprised we never got a school bus in vanilla BeamNG.

 

I hope we get a bank truck too

 

Imagine a mission where you have to destroy it, that would be amazing

 

Brace yourself my dear friends because teasers for 0.36 have started !!!

Also this is 100% a schoolbus upfit for the MD series cause some people found some leftover files in the MD series when it came out related to a school bus and a flatbed tow truck

 

I’m thinking school bus type D (flat front) is most likely. Specifically something based off the Blue Bird TC2000, which has the same instrument cluster as the Chevy Topkick/ GMC Kodiak. The TC2000 came in both front and rear engine versions.


There could also be a conventional style model based off the CV200, which is also based off the Topkick


These could have a lot more possibilities than just regular school buses, they might also used as church buses, commercial or corporate shuttles, summer camps buses, prison buses, mobile police command centers, ambulance/ triage, private ownership, RV conversion and countless other things I’m sure I’m forgetting. That’s not even mentioning motor sport uses like bus racing, bus demo derby or off roading


In short, buses have many different uses and would add TONS of variety to the game

 

I hope we get this. The only bus right now is just a city bus. with this bus, we can have tons of configs and parts to mess around with.

 

I hope it's not a Type D because we already have the Wentward but you might be right.

 

I hope we get a Wentward coach bus tbh, especially for longer journeys

 

Teaser Tuesday

 

Miramar LHD! Good to see this classic is getting some love

 

More like Thursday

 

one of my fav cars is getting a remaster, finally

it desperately needs more love from beamng and its players since i seem to be the only player who consistently uses the miramar

 

Wow, I actually got another thing right several months ago. I predicted that the Sunburst would get remastered this year, and it has been - and now, the Miramar's getting a do-over, as well. I even was somewhat right about new bus content (although the Wentward didn't get a remaster in 0.35, like I thought it would).

Hopefully, we get more than just LHD in this remaster. Personally, I'd love to have a coil-spring rear end (IRS or live axle, it doesn't matter) - the Miramar's one of the few cars in the game which doesn't get coils on its rear suspension. For why that matters, I made a post a few years ago detailing how much more grip a car can get with coils versus leaves. It very likely still holds true.

It'd also be nice to get more in the engine department. The Miramar has one of the lowest maximum horsepower outputs of any vehicle in the game, only out-doing the Pigeon/Wigeon (~150 hp) and Wydra (~80 hp). I don't know if we're going to get any new body styles, though - those haven't been a guarantee with remasters, but they have been quite common. A ute, wagon/van, or coupe could all work fine - apparently, the T40 Corona was even offered as a double-cab pickup. That last one would be quite a funky body style to go for.
