Update Speculation thread

Human brain is funny in there that it makes us to see what we want to see, hence all those Jesus appeared to wall and faces on Mars mumbo jumbos.

There is no firetruck coming:


Well, technically there still could be firetruck coming, but it is not in that reflection, sorry. I really would like from firetruck too.

 

I'm still hyped for the Beetle look-alike that Beam has talked about.

 

Now that I think about it, 0.13 will be automation themed, so I see a high likelihood that Italy will not be included although it appears close to done. The main features will probably be the new configs, the new car, the bendy bus?, Automation map, and Automation exporter support.

 

Even with just the Automation stuff, the update still will be pretty big content wise. But by not including Italy in this one (since we will have the racetrack instead), it gives them more time to work on it, and rule out eventual problems that could arise, just like WCUSA (mainly the fps problems)

 

However, Italy was developed similar to older maps, (ECA, JRI, etc) so it's quite unlikely that the large scale FPS issues due to massive meshes will occur.

 

i know this is off topic, but i saw "The Team" page on the wiki there was Souga, Masa and Gntikos, but they dont have accounts??
Edit: also pricorde.

 

Team members are not required to be active on forums (or on forums at all I guess)

 

Maybe they're the secretive kind of "behind-the-scenes" people?

 

interesting but they would probably be given a mention somewhere. Maybe they are automation/beam people

 

saw it before the collab.

 

Problem is that plenty employees of Automation already had a account since 2013 (like Daffyflyer). Even if they just joined now, I'd likely doubt that they wouldn't make a account immediately.

 

In alot of @Nadeox1s screenshots, he uses the same car, the gavril d35 v8 4wd heavy duty crew cab. Maybe it hints at something, because that's basically what all they are, or maybe he just likes it?

 

Picture is taken here


is it a fire truck? is it a new car? no its a barrier


fufsgfen was earlier than me pointing that out, but you can't say it to much...

 

This is completely random but will there be any official planes, boats, and/or trains? Or at least one made by a dev who mods?

 

I believe a developer confirmed somewhere that there are no official planes, boats, or trains planned.

 

BeamNG.drive

Not BeamNG.fly/boat/rail

 

you can drive a plane/boat/train!

This was mentioned thousands of times, but its highly unlikely and unconfirmed by devs, for planes by one of the devs, you gotta check Carlos's Strato HMX 920 (his other plane mods are outdated)

 

I think that's also outdated

 

What interests me is some of the other upcoming configurations Nadeox1 teased.

As of now we know of the following:

Autobahnpolizei ETK-K Series
ETK-K Series Driving Experience
Burnside Special Taxi

I believe there will be more, could the D-Series Tow truck be one of them?

I'd love to hear your thoughts on this.

 

It would be pretty much easy for devs to include the tow truck in next update, since there is a ready mesh in pickup model file.
