Update Speculation thread

QA last update - 23 minutes ago

 

That unusual updates on the qa branch was something i said now since at least 5 updates and everytime it happend there was a update soon

 

:|

I think it may be coming... But Mitch said WCA wasn't completely done. What'll be the meat of the update?

 

It looked like WCA needed just a little more polish. The meat of the update could possibly be a secret vehicle that we don't know about.

 

Tire physics or some unknown feature.
Or WCUSA, it's still a possibility.

 

Bug fixes, more fixes, patches, bugs, spikes, cars, vans, a test map... all pulled out of the blue... Maybe... I don't know...

 

Apparently a new car because of rumors..? I dunno

 

Everyone! Quickly! Go crash the devblog by reloading it 1000 times!

 

... that would crash the site.

 

Good grief, this update is probably the hardest-ever to speculate on. We know what sort of features will likely come, we know that there likely will be more trailers, and there'll probably be some more content for the current vehicles. but we don't know know yet if a car or a map will come in 0.10. After all...
-No progress has been shown on the Bluebuck.
-WCA doesn't look quite finished yet.
-We've had at least one car or one map for the past few big updates (0.7 had the ETK map)

So...hmmmm...I wonder if we've already been shown the meat of the update with the new transmission logic, new trailers, and the rest of the stuff that's been shown recently.

 

We're not going to get any new maps I think. What I do think is gonna happen, is we're gonna get new sounds. If I recall correctly, the last update made some overhauls to the sound system. Getting some new sounds 3 months after that doesn't sound unreasonable I think.

 

^Likely the meat of the update right here.

No new cars, no new maps, just some new---oh, wait, the standard sounds were terrible.

This update might actually be the update to improve a load of stuff about the current cars before the new cars come in.

 

The only way to know of an update ahead of time is if tdev posts a blog post early and then immediately restricts it. He did that once.

 

This^
You can add as much content as you want, but without optimization of making those features better, nobody will care.

Come on, 1 more hour, I'll be home then.

 

So... if 500k copies have been sold, does this mean that BeamNG has made around 10,000,000 dollars?

 

An update tonight would be great.. I mean the devs have been saying "soon" for over a month..

 

You know I bet the devs are just looking at this and laughing about us trying to figure out when the update will be.
