Update Speculation thread

well, i can see that since another developer, SCS, is about to split the map teams into two for both ETS2 and ATS.

 

yeah it wouldn't be too crazy to conceive, especially since wait time between updates (along with the UI) is one of the few problems that beaming currently faces.

 

Alright... Whatever it is I hope it isn't another ETK but finally Italian, French or British car.

 

I just want a good new vehicle. The older the better.

 

I hope it isn't ETK since i absolutely hate BMW and Mercedes.

 

And what appears to be a new staff member. I've never seen him around before.

This is great news. I'm thinking that it could either be something like a VW Beetle, a Fiat 126p/Maluch, or something else.

---

One question of mine still lingers though.

 

I believe he's been around for a while.

One thing, if this is similar to a classic beetle, what if it was able to float? (VW had an ad campaign revolving around that for a bit)

One theory, what if vehicle development is staggered? CarlosAir and Falkrum are each making vehicles, with a delay in development between the two so vehicles come at a consistently quick rate. Also, what about Gabester (Although his condition is unknown) and the other american vehicle artist (No idea what their forum account is)? In a perfect world, we could be seeing up to four vehicles being designed at the same time.

Just food for thought.

 

B25Mitch and Jalkku are officially both vehicle artists to my knowledge

In another thread (Whats' going on with the game content?) Nadeox said Gabe has been giving advice on projects where he can.

 

According to BeamNG.gmbh (At the moment) , Jalkku is a programmer.

 

Sorry that I have too bring this up, but was the car on the forbidden list? *hopes to not be banned*

 

Which car? There was a bunch of them.

Also, I think you'll be fine. I haven't seen any action being taken against mentioning the list lately.

 

I mean what if its like a Jargl or something. Not to speculate but it seems to fit the name of the Squit

 

According to what I've seen, Jargl would've been Swedish. Are there any Swedish cars that would fit the bill? At least from what we currently know about it.

 

Jargl would've been somewhere around the lines of SAAB and Volvo.

 

Something thta I've noticed about this car is that it reminds me of that Maluch mod. Are the devs making official vehicles that appear like mods? The Wentward came after at least 3 bus mods one of them even being low-floor.

 

According to a quick Google search, rear-engine Swedish cars either don't exist or are in the extreme minority.

 

If that's the case, then the Jarql Squit is (unfortunately) off the table.

The closest thing I've found to a rear-engined Swedish car is the Reva.


I doubt the new car is anything like this.

 

I think the new car will be styled like either a beetle or first gen Fiat 500

 

I reckon it'll be either a Civetta (because Italian) or an ETK, maybe even a whole new unheardof brand?
