Update Speculation thread

I agree, the Sunburst is a modern car but not as modern as the FCVs. Also, the modern ETKs were made from 2013-2017 (800-Series) and from 2015-2018 (K-Series) while the Hirochis were made from 2009-2014 (Sunburst) and from 2013-2020 (SBR4).

 

which does leave a gap for a 2000-2009 sedan

 

Yes, Hirochi needs older cars but I'd say it's more important for the Flat engines to become the brand's staples in the BeamNG lore by powering all Hirochi models.
--- Post updated ---

True that, a Midsize Hirochi Sedan/Wagon powered by the Flat engines we know and love could be a very nice addition!

 

In my humble opinion, the front-end does not look very American - it could be EUDM version of a Gavril. However, I believe that the front-end resembles a car from Europe or Asia (Japan or Korea).

Hopefully we will know pretty soon, as we might get the update before Christmas/New Year's Eve.

 

I don't expect it to look beautiful. It's a van, after all. But I kinda like the high roof and the bodykit they showed in the earlier teaser video.

 

Looking at the Passenger Van's roof makes me think that a Type 2 Ambulance could very much be possible.

 

The interior looks like leather in my opinion. But leather or not it looks great.

 

Do you mind sharing a link to that? I'd love to have a read.

 

I honestly believe that there's a lot more to the update that we haven't seen yet, but they aren't showing it to prevent the hype train from getting even worse.

 

I have no clue what to expect for the new car. Anyone skilled at photoshop who could merge the front with the outline from the old teaser?


PS: This thread got waaaaaaaay more civil after the teaser. What a difference a teaser makes.

 

Hey, look at it this way, if it's ugly, that's more than enough motivation to wreck it 1,000 different ways, am I right?

 

They experienced withdrawal after no teasers for an extended period of time, leading to unintended side-effects /s

 

This could pass easily as the last teaser before the update, as it confirms pretty much everything, if we keep to current precedent.

Starting with the new car, which is all but confirmed to be what's in the picture here, is in game, and unlikely to be teased if it was not upcoming.

Secondly, the van has been confirmed as the main subject of the photo

And the Pessima has recieved more than enough attention, mostly centered around the racing configuration.

That about sums up the major expected content, and we could see this update soon.

The WIP banner was not on the 'flocking to your PCs' tweet as it was likely that that had all been finalized at that point, so while I will hold my breath along with everyone else, I find tomorrow unlikely.

 

I’m leaning towards tomorrow because, as you said, this pretty much confirms everything. The devs also have a trend of releasing a teaser when the update is in the imminent future.

 

I agree 100%, there's a chance they'll show the new car just before the update, since they did with the Wendover and Wigeon, but apart from that I'm sure there won't be any more teasers

 

Is that the last Bone we have to chew off bevore the real delicious Meal comes on the table devs ?

 

Why are there still speculations on wheather the new car is coming in 0.24? it is coming as well as remastered h series and 2nd gen pessima, no doubt about that. Judging by the past everything they teased came in the following update + logically they wouldn't just keep showing us this and not release it - this will be a huge disappointment.

 

imagine people saying still it wont come

 

There's no way it's coming. 0% chance /s

OT: I agree. It seems unlikely that they'd tease something this hard that is not coming.
