Update Speculation thread

If were going to nit-pick...

bruckell and gavril V8s should sound different. 50s/60s gavril small locks should sound different from big blocks. 80s/90s/00s OHC Gavril motors should atleast be quieter than the older mills. same for 378 and 4.4.

 

Doesn't mean they can't simply say a few words to either confirm, or deny our endless speculation a matter of weeks before release.

 

"Mid November earliest" doesn't mean it will be released mid November, it could be released in December.

 

OT but what do you guys think tomorrows Teaser Tuesday™ will reveal?

And yes, I am speculating what we are going to speculate.

 

"Mid November earliest" doesn't mean it will be released in December, it could be released mid November.

 

I hope we see more of the Pessima Revamp or & the new vehicle because the van is pretty predictable and im far more curious what they got up their sleeves for the other two!

 

i think they will miss this teaser tuesday

 

Why do you think that?

 

Take a look at the new Forza Horizon game. They nailed a lot of the engine sounds. Aftermarket exhausts, higher displacement motors, and motors with upgraded cams and long blocks sound different. Ideally, swapping the stock long block to the performance one should give the motor a mean idle and a more aggressive sound.

 

Yeah, BeamNG lacks that finesse but it will certainly come with time.

 

Since this update has taken double the time of normal updates (~6 months instead of the usual 3), are we going to be including this in the calculations for the time between updates? Or are we just going to call it an outlier?

 

I'd consider it an outlier for now. If this becomes the new trend however, the old between update calculation chart would likely be deprecated.

 

A man can dream
Tho it'd be mad cool if they would add it in the future

 

The usual was 4 months, not 3. April, August and December.

 

4 months was the old update cycle. They've been 3 months for the past couple of updates, as TDev mentioned when he told everyone to manage their expectations about this update's release

 

Still interested to know what the major game feature will be in this coming update. I'm still hopeful for a UI overhaul.

 

When was a major game feature confirmed?

 

Its not confirmed, but last few updates had one:
0.23 - PBR
0.22 - Walking mode
0.21 - Tire improvements
0.20 - Water flow physics
0.19 - Drive modes
etc.

 

no teaser tuesday today, eh?

 

Hopefully there will be some bug fixes as well.
