Update Speculation thread

Do you think there would be any new map remasters or map additions (the new garages and car dealers from the wendover update come to mind) in this coming update?

 

Maybe the ETK driver center, but if they want to make it bigger with more stuff, it's not probably coming this update.
But I do think that a cliff remaster is possible, because that's an underrated map, and they can quite easily improve it by adding some ramps, roads....
They may add some new car dealers/garages, because why not after all, but we could have maybe some new buildings of companies, like in ETS2 for example, for new truck scenarios (I don't have any proofs here this is pure speculation)

 

We also need the garage to garage delivery scenario in other maps, Italy gets a bit repetitive after a while

 

Well, I mean, it is our first taste of Career Mode, really, so we will probably get the other maps version of it when Career Mode comes out.

 

A lot of these scenarios are definitely little teasers or at least just "testing the waters" by the devs of what we enjoy and end up seeing in career mode.
On that topic, a taxi mode would probably not be so hard to implement either considering it could just be a mix of the bus scenario and garage to garage but only using taxi vehicles and treating the checkpoints as drop off points

 

Ads much as i LOVE a TeaserTuesday. Like you dont know ( crappy week so i can use a pick me up ;P )

I dont think it will be this week. Due to i think its a one off ( week ) and one week on.

And they want to keep us in hype.

In saying that they have to Give us some Info of the new car. ( sooner or later )

what it looks like. What its name and/or branding is.

Maybe they will post a mini blog. Or a full on blog like the vivace did.

Also maybe they will tease us with just another photo of the new car. WITHOUT anymore info ( maybe say.. The new I.E Ibishu grastline coming soon ( its a made up name )

Or something else they may be working on. Who knows.

 

Yup, they seems to have now a rythm of one teaser every 2 weeks, but maybe as we are going closer to the update, they'll accelerate the teaser with putting one every week.
Anyway, we'll know this evening if they's a teaser or not, but in my opinion, we are not close enough to the release to have one teaser per week

 

Maybe, usually once the next update enters the content freeze stage we'll probably get more teasers.

 

What the teaser are you speaking about?

 

He's probably talking about the 2 most recent teasers, the one of the new car and the other of the revamped Pessimas!

 

yes the pessima from last week,
and the new car that was shown a few weeks back

 

Usually the update is in December - why would it be any earlier this time? We've had teasers in October that ended up being part of a December release before.

 

They skipped the August/September update this year and TDev mentioned mid-November is the earliest we may see the next update. So the winter update may be a couple weeks early this year.

 

i think the update will be in december

 

So do I. And I say this because we saw that the Pigeon/Wigeon duo had some imperfections (no 5-Speed Manual Shifter for the Pigeon, some non-working warning lights and analogue counters on the gauge cluster of the Wigeon) that need to be corrected. Quality testing needs time.

 

do you think, this tuesday will be a #teasertuesday or not?

 

I don't think so because they post their teaser ~30 min earlier than now, but if we have one next week, that would confirm the "one week yes / one week no" pattern

 

the teasers make me so hype… before they posted the first teaser i wasnt even thinking about the update before they shown the first teaser lol

 

I don't think devs want to create any patterns. So, people don't expect them to release an update/teaser on a certain date or day, because that could be stressful to set up a date and try to make everything on time as there can be an unexpected delays along the project.

 

Maybe yes... Maybe not...
The term "confirm" that I used is maybe a bit too much, but even if they make a teaser one week on two, they'll never say that they have a "pattern", and if they's a problem (and the update date is moving away) , they probably can stop making teasers for one week (or more) if they don't want to tease the new update too much.
Btw, one Dev (sorry I don't remember who is was) said months ago that the update will be in the earlier case in mid-November, and quite a lot of us (me included) think that it could be released then (And they start to tease us now). If Devs had a really big problem ,idk, and the update in their schedule is planned on, let's say, December, they probably won't let us speculate about something that has changed for them.
For example, we were speculating about the Bolide remaster, and a Moderator said "No guys, you'll have to wait", because they saw that we weren't on the good path

Anyway, if we have a teaser next week, it's probably because they want to make some kind of pattern, but it's not really a problem if it's finally too stressful for them and they want to stop
