Update Speculation thread

japanese sedans with a french person name

 

Since career mode is coming soon, im gonna imagine what career would be like, it would have like a reputation system and it would have alot of activities like SLRR (illegal night races,drifting,derbys,track racing).
It would also have junkyards/barnfinds and also side missions/jobs that give you a small amount of money like delivering mail in a Pigeon.
It would obviously have a detailed car building experience.

 

I Would Love if it was A Timeline Like Starting In 1950s To 2020s
Like Learning About The Backstory of Each Car And Automaker.
Plus The Stuff you Just Mentioned.
and Time Period Racing.
Like 60s Racing

 

when is it coming? where did it say, its been 2 months since last major update

 

In an interview with TDev done by a local paper (in November 2017?) he said he wanted to get career mode out around now, and the 0.15 changelog ended with a statement "looking foward to career mode in 2019". I'm still skeptical since there is a lot of work needed to get any form of playable career mode (UI, AI, etc...)

Personally I would have career mode as a more traditional game story line picking up after A Rocky Start with other plots/timelines introduced under the campaign tab.

 

Something like a dirt racing mini career on derby can be cool.

 

the seting of the game depends on the map itselve
and im hapy not having to many modern cars because the have no varety and les and less individualety evry car loocks and feels the same the cars in the past had all completly different characters and i hope they set even more on that therm so like you need to pill the chocke or pump the gas so fuel gets into the carburetors old cars had a whole individual start up procedure and the shifting needs to be careful with double clutching and stuff tose are way more interesting to drive and an experience

The Augeria Heron mod was such an example you need exactly to shift at a specific rpm uneles you would damage the transmission sadly this mod is outdated and dont work anymore...

 

Such detailed procedure would need to be an option. (Not on by default) I, for one, think that a system like this would add a great deal of unneeded difficulty to the average casual player, and would be super annoying to someone trying to just sit back and relax with their favorite game.

On another note, we desperately need more modern cars. Frankly I don’t care if they’re not “ interesting” to drive (interesting meaning you need a PhD in mechanics and thirteen years of apprenticeship in a Siberian mechanic shop to drive the thing), and they’ll add a much needed and realistic diversity to traffic. I’m not saying we need a bunch of mundane, overdesigned crossovers left and right but rather a broad spectrum of modern cars.

 

SOSO WEWE!

I don't see what is less varied about new cars than the old ones.

 

Of course should it be an option like the arcade transmission to simulation transmission shifting ability per key binding that is alredy ingame ore direkt in the options like the preheated car selection.

and for the greater varity in general the cars especialy from the 2000-2010 cars are lacking only the sunburst is from that era (i think it from 2009 or so)
And Pre war cars arent in at all the burnside is the oldest car ingame from the 50s

 

Nah man, you don't get it. Modern cars are boring because they all look the same!







Not to say any of these are bad cars, in fact I quite like all of the cars I posted pics of. It's just that styling trends have always and will likely always be a thing in the car world. I personally prefer the older cars aswell, styling wise, but I don't believe that the amount of variety within automotive segments is not much different now than it was before.

 

what

 

can you link the interview

 

It is in German. Unless you know German it would not be of much use.

 

i can just google translate it, link it.

 

Please guys don't start with another useless modern/old car superiority debate...

 

Would a pre-war car as a mod satisfy people? Just like the Heron?

 

On a different subject, is Beam going to bring back the Halloween mod this year?

 

Not sure. They didn't do a Christmas mod last year either, so seasonal events may be a thing of the past.
