Update Speculation thread

Oh man you got a lot of catching up to do
We're getting a mining truck as you can see, and very likely a loader. And if you were gone since before the T-Series, we got cabovers now and a whole load of new cars and remasters

 

yo italy dump truck update?

 

That mine looks different to the video, the one in the video looks more like a classic quarry

 

a VERY large diesel will be a pretty cool addition

 

That's about the point where I stepped out, right after the TC-series came in. I did dip back into the game itself when the MD-series showed up, but I've not been going over every update with the same fine-tooth comb I used to (unalloyed leisure time in excess of 30min is a bit of a rare commodity for me these days).

I do wonder if the heavy equipment will eventually point towards a low-loader trailer:


...And if so, what form it will take. A classic fixed-neck lowboy with rear loading ramps might be the way to go, just from an ease-of-player-use standpoint - no messing around with connecting the truck and disconnecting the neck from the trailer to load and then reconnecting, as a modern detachable-neck trailer would need. And a simpler JBeam structure than a folding-neck trailer.

 

I find it really cool that they chose a Miramar with an orange beacon for the teaser. I've also used it, and other older worn down cars as cheap company security/maintenance vehicles. Been fitting them with orange flashers and whatever miscellaneous equipment the occupation requires.

 

Yes, an industrial-like one would be great!!

 

Hope they add some configs for the quarry

 

a quarry being added to italy makes a lot of since seeing as the real life italy has a ton of marble mining. its kinda weird that there wasnt a marble quarry already...

 

I know this might Sound stupid BUT German Alpenvorland would also fit
Due to the marbel used for the Empire State Building in New York got build up there

 

I actually want to do something similar for a living, outfitting used cars and trucks for specific jobs, or just like, basic mods. (and some buy/sell on the side)

 

The vegetation does not fit at all.

 

I totaly agree
I yust wanted to throw somthing in that would make sens (sort of)

 

Well I was wrong and either we see a large update to Italy or a new map. Personally I think the former is more likely.

 

Nah probably the latter, quarrys are way to big for even the italy map

 

Judging by the sound, it's gonna have normal powertrain? Diesel-electric wouldn't rev, would it?

 

Im willin to throw the us under the bus as well if things keep getting much worse irl... Anyway. Enough of

Oh god lets HOPE SO.

Just a heads up if it seems like I suddenly quoted something from like 3 days ago or months ago or whatever it's because I'm typing on mobile and forums and mobile devices are finicky as heck. Forgive me

 

idk how dumptrucks work exactly but a diesel electric truck would be pretty cool and it would rev as it generates more power

 

It does

Go listen to a few videos of them hauling stuff.

 

the big marble looking blocks look pretty interesting
