Update Speculation thread

I also know it as twin-charging. There were a few other companies that used this setup, since it's pretty good at eliminating turbo lag. I think the Ibishu-Lancia connection is pretty weak, and a Japanese rally car with a supercharger sounds a bit strange. But on the other hand, Zenvo made a twin-charged car... And you know what I'm thinking about... (But that would never happen, it's completely ridiculous)

Edit: Whoa totally missed the Covet sketch! That thing is sick! This might be my new favorite car once it reaches the game, if it drives the way it looks. It kind of reminds me of either a Metro 6r4 (Crazy group B machine powered by a V6 if I'm not mistaken)


Or a Peugeot 205 Hillclimb (If I remember correctly, it started as a group B car and after group B was canceled it became a hillclimb car, and had a 1.8 i4 engine based on production variant block, but moved to mid-engine and the whole engine was rebuilt with performance parts)

 

Idk, seeing these massive air vents in front of the rear wheels makes me think there has to be a Twin-Turbo V engine in there! But would be more practical if the 2.7 V6 is longitudinal because it's very difficult to cool down the Twin-Turbos in a transverse mid-engine layout, especially if the said engine is a V and not an Inline.

Nah, these massive air intakes on either side say "Twin-Turbos" all over them! Plus we're talking about an 80s race/rally car, there's almost no chance of it not having at least one turbocharger!

 

and come to think of it, the pessima did get the twin turbos for the v6, but they're not presently used on any factory configs.

 

i wonder if they'll end up trying to remaster 2 cars in the 0.25 update, since it's a "milestone" update

 

Too bad. A V6 GTz Twin-Turbo with the Stage 1 Twin-Turbos and the Heavy Duty Long Block would be great!

 

dafaq?


edit

I'm confused...

 

Probably an hotfix which isn't documented yet.

 

SAME HAPPENING HERE, im confused

 

A near 700mb hotfix? lmao

 

yes it is

 

or is it

 

The devs were obviously working on a hot fix obviously, to fix that damned ram leak issue...

 

so
moonhawk remaster is probably coming
covet remaster is definitely coming
italy remaster or new rally map?

 

???

Grasping at straws

 

my game updated, i dont see any difference tho.

 

ok yeah the rally map was farfetched
but the moonhawk is definitely next in line for a remaster it looks like it came straight out of 2014

 

Hotfix confirmed

 

okieeeeeeeee

 

I don't know what the go is but it only ended up downloading a 103mb patch.... I breifly showed a 683mb download but then didn't download it.

 

We have literally 0 reason to even think about that.
