Update Speculation thread

Nadeox1 just showed off a revised version of the D-series "rusty" skin, which has been confirmed for release in the next update.

I'm not certain, but the blue truck appears to be two-tone.

 

I think it's just the reflection, with the top darker part being a reflection of the first truck, and the bottom light part is the reflection of the ground.

 

Major update on the castle on Italy. It looks much better now.

 

Noice castle. I wonder if the road that is seen here

Will look like this when finished:

And I hope we'll be able to drive to the castle without teleporting

 

I think the castle and the older town will likely be accessible, but extremely tight, like the real thing. Likely the "AB" car was chosen due to it's size, as I doubt many of the vehicles will be able to make it through some of the tight streets.

 

The Miramar would fit too I think.
A T75 or the H series will definitely not fit through those roads, so we would need a van configuration for the AB car, something like this:

or this

Just my ideas.

 

Your AB car is called the ‘Autobello’

You can briefly see it in the vehicle selector in one of the videos in the upcoming UI blog.

 

"Nicecar"? Really?

 

Not even that.

"Bello" as an adjective isn't accorded to the noun here ("Automobile" is feminine in Italian, so that would be AutoBella). It's... more like "Automotive Beauty"... not really appropriate for a diminutive, basic vehicle meant for mass motorization, to be honest...

 

Never actually looked at the cars in that screenshot... “PC master race special”...

 

It's a mod.

 

I wonder whether Autobello is a brand or model name, since it can be shortened to AB.

 

Probably the brand.

 

yay! now I do`t have to eat paper!

 

Probably yes, but it could just be a config (another vehicle). And, it's one 1 config. Vehicles have multiple ones. (But it could just be that other configs aren't made yet.)

 

You guys are clearly overthinking this.

Autobello clearly means "automatic bell" except in a more slang sense.

they put the "O" on the end so it could rhyme with something.

The name for update 0.14 will be "Hey thats pretty cool-o, always wanted to ring an auto bell-o"

/s

 

Hmm...

 

Im gonna drive the autobello around italy, maybe post a video

 

Maybe a self-swinging church bell?

Would be fun to drop 500+ lbs of metal on a car.

 

Well, it must be true, because DiamondBacked me up!

I'll leave now.
