Update Speculation thread

Ferrari took down a bunch of mods of their cars, everyone got mad as if this wasn't going to happen sooner or later.

 

OK.

 

in general they are extremely lawsuit happy

 

imo thats not a bad thing, most of the ferrari mods were not a good representation of the actual car

 

or are they vsaucs music

 

Yep, left outside unloved for many years!

(Even the description for the Beater Covet was great! BBBC! Bring Back Beater Covet!)

 

lol

 

With the exception of the Covet MR Turbo, Ibishu is the more boring of the two Japanese brands of BeamNG, so equipping its modern cars with CVTs is a great choice because Ibishus are great when it comes to daily in-town commuting.
I absolutely agree with you, Hirochi should solely focus on Flat engines because we haven't had a Boxer brand in BeamNG and Hirochi is a great candidate for this role of ambassador. I am 50-50 about the transmission offerings though: the more basic and everyday Hirochi models can get a CVT, while the sportier models can get a DCT, like the sportier Sunburst models and the SBR4 already have. Unless, of course, the real "performance car with a CVT" niche is also filled.
As for the SBR4, no, it is what it is and any change to it would be dramatic. There is another niche to be filled though: the small, cheap, FR, 4-seater Coupe with the NA 2.0, 175hp and 2.5, 210hp Flat-4 engines. It's certainly gonna be cheaper than the cheapest SBR4, so there's definitely a space for it in the Hirochi lineup.

 

=

but the sunburst is a sedan

 

we get an april fools update post

 

That's why I'm talking about the CVT. The Base version of the Sunburst is absolutely appropriate for it to have a CVT, since it's just a simple and basic commuter car. On the other hand, the sportier variants of the Sunburst can have a DCT, but there's also no getting away from the fact that there's a certain IRL car maker who makes Boxers and also combines them to CVTs in its sportier models. So, in the end, the niche of the "performance car with a CVT" is to be filled in BeamNG! I'm 50-50 on this one!

 

Imagine tdev posted the final countdown in Beamcord as an April Fools joke

 

God i hate April fools lol,

OT do you think we will get a long nose with a i6?

 

I hope so, lots of people have swapped turbo i6's into 240's like ThatDudeinBlue

 

That'd be funny. This way, people won't ask for teasers constantly and such.

 

womp womp

 

Then a quick fix drops with the Wydra hitch working

 

i will put a balloon with a small hole on my dad's car exhaust. it will go
brrrrrrurrurururururur

 

Wait guys.. did they update the creator branch ?
