Update Speculation thread

I don’t want to disappoint anybody, but I don’t think that we will be getting a teaser tomorrow due to the fact that it’s a US holiday.

 

I think this is most likely not true as why would they design a whole new truck just to half-ass it? Not very BeamNG.drive.when they remastered the d-series, pretty much all the teasers they made where off-road/trophy variants.

 

The BeamNG team is a around the world

 

I know that too.

 

You know what else is in the Southern California desert? The Southern California logistics Airport, aka Victorville airplane graveyard. Smithing like this would make an awesome rally course, maybe even have a large c-5 Galaxy -esque cargo plane (as a map feature only) that has open ramps on both ends so we can drive through it. See the people inside for scale


Imagine swerving around huge planes or maybe driving under the wings, drag races on the runway or even a track circuit on the tarmac (think Dunsfold in the desert). with how immensely massive the SCLA complex is irl, it would probably need to be a map of its own if they made it to scale, although they could just make smaller section inspired by it in one corner and have the rest of the map be dedicated to other stuff.

Honestly forgot about the hopper although I was thinking about a more modern SUV

While I see your point, (and an f1 car would definitely be cool) I’m still gonna be a bit disappointed if they don’t make a regular road going version of the truck since this game lacks a modern pickup. I may be biased though since outside of formula racing I’ve otherwise never really cared for these purposes built race cars/trucks without street legal counterparts. I kinda just prefer modified street legal car racing.

 

you do realise that there are more countries than just the united states in the world, right?

 

More of the Beam team is outside of the US than in it, including LeeLoo, who puts together the teasers. Plus, I figure they probably have the teasers done at least a day or even a couple hours in advance.

 

Nice ideia, could be a good place for the Antonov mod and other planes.
And also, that remember that airfield in GTA San Andreas, but the only difference is that in GTA there's abandoned and destroyed planes.

 

Las conilidas de vapor or something like that. An official beamng ground wouldn't be so flush and flat.
--- Post updated ---

Yeah, but that body is pretty much out in the open and it looks like just a generic modern pickup body. Someone earlier had suggested that fiberglass bodies could be made in advance of new cars as additional canonical (but not in-game) content, that to me is more likely than a whole new truck rollout with this update.

If I really had to guess, I'd say that the fiberglass bodies were going to be used as long term vehicle plan lists - something we haven't seen for a while.

 

German based company from Bremen
every time Theres a nation or state (Bremen is a city state with some different holidays) wide Holliday they didn't update the repository

 

I've read through a lot of the and here are some ideas I have:
Southern U.S./Mexican map
Trophy truck CHASSIS, not a production truck. Maybe different bodies for that chassis?
ETK van thing is no longer interesting?
idk forgot what else I was going to post here

If they are going to tease something tomorrow, Its gonna be the updadte

 

I'd be really surprised if the trophy truck chassis didn't come with a production modern pickup. Plastic race bodies are 99% of the time modeled after a production vehicle, which weirdly enough happens to be missing in the current BeamNG line up.

 

ETK van is most interesting.

 

the ETK van thing is likely not coming until the next update, so discussion on it can kind of wait, whereas the various buggies are imminent.

 

[

I want you to read what you wrote again, slowly.
Jokes aside im not so sure about it not coming with the upcoming update.
i´d say we wait if there will be more teasers of it to speculate about the release of it.

 

Honestly I'm not ready to call the ETK truck either way. The update is anywhere from 0-4 weeks out still and the trophy truck had pretty much the same initial teaser not long before the van, and that looks finished as of this week.

Just because I said this, watch the update come out today without it...

 

If the update comes out this or next week i will post an image of a glass of water
like snfriedm14 did

 

Hydration is important, kiddo!

 

New teaser :O

 

NEW TEASER. Cute, but deadly, Leeloo says.
