Update Speculation thread

well, to be really honest it really does not at all, it feels like some gm executive told people to glue some cutting boards together.

 

yes but the design is outdated as hell so ya never know what a restyle could do for it

 

just out of curiosity, why did the countach even have a front spoiler

 

yea thats why i hope the devs would do that because that industrial trailer glimpse really felt underwhelming.

 

Ye, i can agree with that. I think its just because the model itself is outdated and also because there's something wrong with the proportions. Shotty did an edit of Bolide which to me looks a lot more pleasing.

Something to do with its front end being to low to comply with safety regulations as far as I remember.

 

I don't think they will change or remove the original looks/parts. By that I mean they will add new parts, but will keep original looking parts too, so you can still drive a bolide that looks like the original. They didn't do it with any of the other original cars. All they did was add stuff. You can still have a d-series looking like the one from 0.3, a gm looking like one from 0.3, and so on. Add different looking parts, they probably will. But won't remove or change the original.

 

Back when they were changing proportions some cars got big changes. The SBR went from looking like a toy to an actual car, and a lot of them got changes big enough to break mods.

As for specific parts, they did completely remove the old garage built not street legal flatbed for the D-Series, along with the fuel tank for it

 

Yes but not for the original ones. I am talking about the originals. The ones from 0.3.0

 

That flat bed was in game for ages

 

the d series one? what are you talking about?

 

T-Series has had one for a while now

 

they removed it? I never noticed

 

The D35 Pig config's flatbed + fuel tank, which was in game for a very long time, was removed. The Pig now uses a street legal flatbed with the sides taken off and the factory fuel tank. So that's an example of a very old part removed without a replacement that looks the same.

 

Lmao I never said that, it's still in game

 

just checked, flatbed is still there, fuel tank isnt.

 

No, it's not.

The original flatbed did not cover the rear wheels, so it wasn't street legal

This one is a competely different flatbed. New texture, covers the rear wheels, has options for sides/fenders, etc...

 

Remodeling and retexturing they do with the originals as that is very important. But they wont for example replace the original 2nd gen d series parts with a different generation one that looks completely different, they would add a different generation as they did. They try and keep the iconic ones that we remember the same. They also tend to do it with only one config instead of all of them. If you dont understand what I mean, I mean that they didn't remove the original d15 4wd v8 config, and kept it looking mostly the same. What I am suggesting with the bolide is that they will most likely keep the 350gt config looking like it does now. But with the others, they may change them to look better and different.

 

This conversation is giving me flashbacks to "Widebody Sunburst or riot"... People will be annoyed if things change, but that's how things are for an early access title.

There have been major changes to parts and configs before. Plenty of configs have been changed or straight up removed, parts have been updated or depreciated, entire maps as well.

 

Are you talking about this flatbed?
