Update Speculation thread

I cannot tell you how glad I am that I was wrong about there being no teaser today, thank god

 

Does this mean the update will be sooner?

 

probably.

 

maybe in a few weeks

 

I guess it depends on what we see next week

New Teaser

 

Yep we've been discussing this.

 

I doubt we will see the update for at least a week or two. The main event (New Bolide) hasn't properly been shown yet. I reckon we will get to see it next week at the earliest with the full update sometime the week after that maybe

 

One of the things that strikes me about this Covet (beyond the new badging, the turbocharger, the vented fender flares, the apparently new wheels, and the amber turn signals) is that the black plastic panel on the back is now a heckblende.

I wonder if that's a sign of a facelift, or the dev team is working on differentiating the trim levels a bit more. In any case, I'm hoping that they remember to leave an 'empty' option as a possibility for stripped-down configurations.

 

I just want it as a parts option to have the word "heckblende" in the parts selector. It's a fun word

 

I'd like to reiterate that it is extremely unlikely that we'll see the new Civetta in 0.25. The first we saw of it was a concept design drawing in mid-January. It is known that the devs take longer than 6 months which represents the current major update cycle and this one will most likely take especially long as it is going to be the most complicated vehicle that they have ever added to the game, as a modern supercar is about as advanced as car design gets and takes an immense amount of tuning to get right. It is far more likely that the new Civetta will appear in 0.26.

 

But wouldn’t that make 0.25 a small update?

 

I've the impression that the graphisms aren't the same in game and in this last teaser

 

No it wouldn’t as we’re most likely getting a full Covet remaster as well as most likely modifications to a lot of other big things, just not the new Civetta.

 

We haven't even seen the new Civetta as a 3D model yet, let alone in game. So either 0.25 is really far off or the Civetta isn't coming this update (and I find the latter more likely)

 

I doubt the the civetta isn't coming next update. Releasing the teaser for the cherries early was controversial at the time, why would they do it again?

 

I wasn't following Beam really then, so thanks for informing me.
In which case we're probably getting hyped up too early, but then why would they be teasing the Covet remaster so early? Maybe next Tuesday we'll see the Civetta then.
Remind me, how long has it been since we first saw the Civetta?

 

I'm wondering if they are going to wait until they finish the Civetta so there isn't that dual update thing like last time. Or we might just get that way later.

Some were also unhappy about the dual update with the Bolide then the Bastion a little later, so that makes sense.

 

hold on. dennis mateja is ninetynine...does anyone think that an official twincharged covet could be in the making?
