Update Speculation thread

Now, where's that guy that always posts the release date of updates and the probability?

 

And reading through all this and staying sane is what lands you the title

 

Worth noting that the rear bumper and sideskirts we saw in the first teaser from last year are the same we now see on the car above. This then means that the front bumper we saw in the first teaser is likely also on the car in the image above, and is the facelifted front design to compliment the new rear design we're receiving. Seeing as the front bumper is not as huge of a design leap as the rear is (namely the grille retaining an almost identical shape to the current design, and the headlight housings being identical), I'm guessing that a lot of the facelift's changes up front will be focused on modernizing the headlights radically, as we saw with the taillights.

 

i agree, however there are some new details on the facelifted front bumper, such as the small front lip and the air intakes on the sides (i guess for cooling the brakes). Makes it look a lot more aggressive

 

Maybe there will be a prefacelift widebody, too and that’s the first teaser, since it looks so similar to the prefacelift. Maybe we haven’t seen the facelift widebody front bumper

 

I always forgot to update it, gonna send it here this week end if I find time to do it and if I don't forget it.

 

I did a drawing of the car with the new bumper backe then... It actually changes the looks quite a bit...

Also pls gib GT3 K series

 

@Exchy here's your GT3 design! lol

 

I always say this prior to every update. I'm always really hopeful they will implement some decent AI races and derbys. An official derby or racing league in game with AI would be amazing and also lay out the foundation for official multiplayer.

 

the WCUSA ai are so broken

 

I just really want proper AI police chases, they seem to just crash themselves or would just be really dumb. I do respect what we have right now with them but id love to a significant improvement

 

Seeing as the widebody teaser was released mid last year, the front design could have changed to include the facelift, which seems most likely

 

Has anyone talked about a possible angethegreat collab with beam? in his latest video he stated how beamng supports his Patreon and about how he's spoken to beams CEO before, is it a bit far fetched, maybe and another simulation would probably drag the fps even more down, but even a sorta simplified version would be hella cool

 

Who is BeamNG’s CEO anyway?

 

I'm not too familiar with that project, but I'd be shocked if it isn't something Diamondback and the crew isn't interested in. While I'm not about to go digging through for it, I do remember someone on the BeamNG team once mentioned they want to improve the ICE systems (particularly for customization) but most methods they've considered would be a QA nightmare

The air intakes on the sides also act as air curtains, channeling the air around the spinning wheels for better aerodynamics.
