Update Speculation thread

No, the ATVs are actually just some Arctic Cat SxS that were pasted in. There is no need at all for official multiplayer since BeamMP is really, really good.

 

fgfghfghfhgfhgg whats going onnn

 

can't we just be happy we got a teaser?

 

It's not like 99% of people would even have an interest in said data, for one it's highly technical and mostly boring but if it would take a teaser tuesday, most people would've gotten mad as well.

 

I think that the biggest proof of how strong is the BeamNG community, is that we already went through a phase that we hade barely none communication with the devs, we've gone for more than months without a teaser, got pushed back to 6 month update schedules, but the communty still stands strong.

I don't think anyone os being ungrateful, it was just a bad way to hype the community for a simple teaser, but as I said, Leeloo has been doing great lately with the teasers, it just escaped her control at some point

 

That data used to be really common for teasers back in the day, and I for one loved it! Certainly wouldn't call it boring.

 

Ww've had physics teasers in the past, it's not like it's anythng new the devs son't know how to show, it came to a point htat they even put up lines of code so we could scratch our heads trying to figure out what was going on, they put graphs for perfomance of the car instead of an image for example, they know how to make anything interesting for the community

 

We should be thankful we are even being given teasers, it really falls onto people getting overly excited over 1 post.

 

Huh, I don’t remember that but I admit I also made a similar comment one time, anyway its the past now so we can forget about it

 

I feel indifferent.

I'd listen to the community, be enthusiastic over what has been done and happily share what my teams pride & work had gotten us. And if we have features, vehicles, etc - that the community has been asking to see; that has the potential to be released in the update; we'd share that too.

 

Data's quite cool, I simply don't believe most people would be interested in it.

Really neat to see the calculations and stuff that goes behind making a game like this work.

 

I'm not being ungrateful for having teasers, Leeloo has been sending them out a LOT lately, more than we ever got.

It was just one issue with an out of time teaser and a hype created by a phrase ("I got something amazing for next tuesday") that got the whole community hyped (as we really never needed much to get too hyped) and that created this whole issue.

I'm grateful by the awesome job the dev's been doing so far, I have 2.000 hours on this game for this reason

 

Its a little more complicated then that.
I can surely understand LucasBE more even when i can understand Leeloo a little tiny bit but in the end for me Lucas is right.
Like stated many times before: We are in fact the paying customer so we do have right to criticize in the end.
the amount of likes on Leeloos rather unpleasant comment confirmed what i always thought.
Just because a dev writes it even if it is in an unpleasant way in terms of words and formulation many people will still just blindly go along with it just because they dont dare to criticize the people in charge.
Call me stupid or a moron or whatever floats your boat but my personal opinion is that Leeloos comment was too rude in my opinion because LucasBE literally just stated that he was disappointed from the teaser that for some here was a little overpromised.
If you want to bash my argument please go. freedom of speech is very important if you express it in a respectful manner.

Oh boy! i just looked up myself after a long time and i was surprised to see im scratching just under 5000 hrs.

 

Just look how huge the map is! It’s absolutely ginormous, and you can’t even see any known locations! It’s gonna be much bigger than Italy.

Onto some speculation then:

No Content Creator Branch update, which for me means it isn't coming this month anymore (because of usual at least 15 days for creators to create a video and the amount of content teased really would be hard to sumarize in a video)

If Content Creator Branch were to be updated today, it'd release at around christmas for us and that would leave the devs with little time for bug fixing before holidays

 

Well, it's people.

And we all, by virtue of this, take ourselves too seriously. We're treating this video game like it's something more than idle entertainment for us when we get home from work and get the kids in bed. Or the joy we steal between hours of homework and a part-time job. Or just an idle hobby. It's just a video game. Like, it's a video game that's just a concept and some intellectual property combined with the works of countless people. And even then, when all's said and done, it's just some lights on a panel.

Like, Leeloo's just a gamertag for a normal salaried employee trying to collect a paycheck by being a glorified babysitter for a bunch of internet children. She's not the face of this game by virtue of any more than a pay stub. Or the German equivalent. We should like... remember that.

In writing that, I've done the same thing, and fallen into the same trap, and written the most cringey self-assured thing I've probably ever done. Oh well.

 

If it’s an oil refinery, then maybe west Texas? I’m not sure if New Mexico, Arizona or Southern California have any big refineries, probably not in cali cause of all the environmental regulations, not sure about Nevada either, although I think that a third map set in Texas would be a bit repetitive lore wise, even though the terrain itself is a lot different. Plus I’ve driven through west Texas and there aren’t any mountains, it’s pretty much completely flat and the terrain is a bit too much of desert since IRL west Texas is a dry grassland. So maybe still NM, Nevada or Arizona?

With this terrain being fairly empty and having big flat areas, it definitely could be huge

 

I bet the update has to do with suspension ingame, specifically offroad suspension, which is why Leeloo emphasised the 'excitement of flying over the bumps', implying that maybe the suspension reactions would be tweaked

Therefor you guys did get your physics change teaser
