Update Speculation thread

My first guess is tachometer tbh. We all know Bruckell loves their digi-dashes.

 

So we can assume this means that whatever was in the video is coming to the game… the question is… what is it? I’m stumped.

 

A way to make a digital tacho without using html but instead using a moving mesh between 2 other meshes?

 

I believe Diamondback's message is implying the exact opposite...

 

I like the fact that BeamNG team took part in that podcast, it was fun listening to insights of development process

On topic of Bollide remaster: looking at the rally Bollide from that Bastion teaser made me think that its side profile became much more curvier than it is now. Is it only me?

 

That’s also a possibility

 

@Diamondback you seem very on edge in that video you posted, confusing

 

I can relate, sometimes it's frustratingly difficult to explain a simple concept to someone using words alone, so it's just easier to slap together a physical representation of it.

 

if they're going the stratos route it could mean they're putting in a smaller engine and maybe a smaller car similar to the 308 or the jalpa
seems more 037 to me though

 

I wonder if we'll get a better picture of the new Bolide tomorrow?

 

Bet we get a teaser tomorrow and update on Wednesday or Thursday

 

The update will most likely be out this week so they can fix bugs before the holiday

I do suspect this update will demote the Bolide's intended position from "definitive Italian supercar" to "mildly insane rally homologation special," which makes more sense as it was never really F40 or Countach material. Going off the Lancia 037 we can probably expect a turbocharged 2.0-2.1L I4 making from 265 to 325 hp in race form, or a milder turbocharged 2.0L I4 making 205 hp for the "Stradale" model. Homologation models rarely had more than one engine option.

 

Turbo bolide confirmed? sbinalla incoming

 

where

 

Beam podcast

 

I don't think the Bolide is going to change as a car. It's probably just a Stratos/037 inspired rally config.

 

I think the Bolide would be an entry level supercar like the 308 and the Jalpa. The 308 had a tiny part in the Group B Scene.

 

I say next teaser will be Bolide. I dont think it will be bastion due to the fact we seen it in blog post and saw it last week.

SO i think it will be a more detailed Bolide photo.


Also i think that the one after that ( teaser ) 22nd will be the last one and the update the 23rd or 24th.


I dont think they will need a few days for bug fixes if this still version 0.24.

They might, But i think its just, Here is a sexy new car and a sexy remaster.

As well as UI fixes for version 0.24. Am sick of my default car being that blue D-series
