Update Speculation thread

yep

 

I don't know what qa_unpacked is or does, but they don't usually make new branches unless something big is happening, like a major new feature or bug fix

 

Until the T-Rex becomes what @ManfredE3 wrote a couple posts back im fully down with this meme.

 

Just speculation but, what if the "big thing" is not a teaser?

 

He's still easily my favorite person here for it though.

 

New depot means something big is either in the works or about to be revealed. This never happened before.

 

maybe I am somewhat right

 

Brace yourself lads it's happening

 

What is "unpacked?" I know that BeamNG's content is normally "packed" into zip files, and at some point there was talk of overhauling BeamNG's virtual file system... maybe having everything in zip files proved inconvenient, so they "unpacked" them into regular folders instead? That would be a fairly major technical change that would warrant a new branch for testing

 

off topic but almost 2500 pages

 

we are close too

 

Close to #50000 messages, too.

OT: it's the website remaster, guys. Have you ever seen a website that came in a zip?

I don't think we're getting a teaser today, strictly speaking...

 

you mean we can maybe get the update?

 

Not likely but anything is possible

 

I wouldn't hold onto the fact that there's an update coming today. There hasn't been a creator program update yet

 

leeloo if youre reading this can you do it within the next 40 mins pls i dont wanna miss it while im driving home cheers boss

 

Well, if as I suggested, they wised up and figured out how to stop giving away the release date with the creator program branch, then yes! I have been seeing very high activity from both devs and verified content creators on Discord consistent with the build-up to previous updates - not sure if that's reliable, but worth noting anyway.

Wait and see, that's all we can do right now.

 

Is this a Update day ?
