Update Speculation thread

no thank you

 

Sorry robocop, repeat that?

 

In case anyone is interested by this

 

I say you remove 0.20 and 0.19 from the equation. COVID happened and the devs had to slow down

 

so we might get an update in 95 days?

 

Nope, just theoretically

 

Literally my ADHD rotten brain wanting a new update like a week after receiving one.

 

ahem

hooper

 

th mods not perfect though, the load lip is pretty high, and some other stuff (I still use it though)

 

and what about cars/trucks/semis with the trailers attached?

 

Yeah, I used to just spawn in a semi, use @Agent_Y’s ‘Trailers in Part Selector’ mod, and then click ‘Start Traffic’, but now that mod is outdated, so I agree.

 

that would be cool too

 

Great estimation tool, definitely interested.

 

the estimated date is only calculated by adding 90 days to the last update we had, it gives us a rough idea of what week the devs aim to release the next update. IIRC the devs sometimes said that they were trying to push updates every 3 months but I may be wrong, but as the last 3 updates were all released with a 90 days time span each, it kinda confirms this schedule

It's not really a tool, simply a spreadsheet I made to see clearly when have the devs released updates before, and then being able to know when to expect the next update (if everything goes as they planned, which is sometimes not the case)

 

i think they are trying to keep somewhat strict 3 month update schedule, i also think that is the reason why we are getting less teasers. From what ive seen, the 3 month schedule is a bit rough, some content gets a bit cut (and sometimes gets added in patch notes, aurata buttons for example), and maybe even crunch time (cant confirm that). So they tease less as they are less sure if what they are working on will make the cut for the next update, and they dont want to make false expectations or hype (can lead to very toxic community). As, i think before, if they werent able to deliver what they planned for the update, it would be delayed (quite few updates are 4-8 months between).

 

Has anyone thought that the us_semi name is making way for a Japanese truck?

 

Nope.

 

Maybe, but how many Japanese maps do we have?

 

None, but Jungle Island was originally going to be (I think). And either way they could add one.

 

I want the devs to keep expanding west coast! The potential is insane! I really want them to connect the highways via loading screens that show up after entering the tunnel, with long, highway maps that you have to drive through to go. I’m talking like 100km long. I really want to drive 45 minutes to go from West to east coast
