Update Speculation thread

There's about 1,000 messages in the past week alone, if it didn't slow down the thread would be 5,000 pages long by next Thanksgiving

 

I didn't want this race
We can't keep up this pace
We don't want to get banned
We want Italian van

(20 fake internet points to anyone whoknows this song)

 

isn't this going to be the first and only fire engine?

 

It'll be a support vehicle in some form or another; I'd consider it in the same class as the fire chief Roamer in that sense. We could get a brush truck D-Series to match the rest now...

 

But roamer?

 

@_Tanco made this chart that shows dates and times up until 0.22, if that's helpful to whoever asked

 

Everytime I go back to this thread, I see drama, speculation, and 20 new pages of comments.

 

half of this thread is bickering about teasers

 

Wow staff pick! Nice job
--- Post updated ---

The Roamer, LeGran, and another one I’m forgetting have fire chief configurations, but this is the first fire engine, if it’s even a fire engine. (Devs have said they have no plans to make a firetruck, but this could be a support truck or something)

 

I agree that it won’t be the heavily specialized firetruck we see now. But a 60s to 80s European style firetruck. Something lighter then today, made to move firefighters around and their equipment, particularly in smaller town and country region like in the Italy map.
And so I don’t feel like it’ll be just a support vehicle.

 

I don’t check SteamDB myself, but has qa_stable(?) been updated yet? if not, it does seem kinda odd creator branch has been updated first

 

That was a good'un!

 

The Roamer, LeGran, and another one I’m forgetting have fire chief configurations, but this is the first fire

qa_unpacked, a new branch, was updated, but idk about qa_latest

 

i'm gonna call it, next tuesday

 

Do you guys think a teaser will be posted tomorrow? If so, what will it contain?
(I kinda doubt there will be a teaser, because why would Leeloo want to give us a teaser if everyone hated the last one?)


Also, finally! You can export different trim levels as one car!

 

Awesome, right? lol

OT - I'm extremely excited about what's been teased so far. My hope is that we will get a full vehicle out of the new TT that's been teased, but I can see how it would be likely to just be a race variant only. The offroad focus for 0.27 seems to definitely point towards the new map having a lot more offroad focus as well, however, I do hope that there's at least a little bit of desert 2 lane road to blast down in a proper road car. There seems to be some promising updates to engine sounds as well, which most people would agree is going to be a welcome change to the current sound climate. Do we feel as though there's a chance of at least one new engine being released with the XTV that we don't currently have in-game?

 

at least one. The van might get a new engine too

 

Where did you get that list?

 

Automation changelog

 

I think most would be greatly disappointed if we didn’t get this, and I’m sure the devs know that.
