I'm more into whatever the team is making at that moment . Personally if I had to list a favorite motorsport discipline it would probably be vintage racing. While I'm not nearly good enough to tame much anything of that era in a sim game, they all just look so cool!

I was never into trucks until the D-Series remaster, really not an off roading guy but been looking a lot at Baja/KoTH since the trophy truck teaser, etc...

I suspect the trophy truck, T-Rex buggy, and this solid axle T-Rex buggy cousin are all the "same" vehicle. They are all roughly the same size, probably similar engine configs, and seem to use a lot of assets from the existing crawlers. Just adjust the chassis itself as needed. I doubt the Piccobuggy is in this set though, it's smaller and uses assets from the Piccolina but not the crawlers.

Yeah, this map looks huge. Really excited to see the size and what's up with that town. IRL Johnson valley is, well, a valley, so the map border will probably be a lot of steep mountains and maybe a road with a landslide blocking it.

I do hope they put a little tiny desert town with a long lonesome road through the desert in it just for the Route 66 vibes.
But i think we will see something like that at the very least even with this map obviously off road race focused it seems huge so i dont think they would just make it that big with almost nothing in it even it would be realistiv according to the IRL location.
Im really exited about the map and all possibilities that come with it!

That’s a great idea! It does seem logical and make sens with a lot of stuff we’ve seen. I can’t wait to see if it’s really that and how configurable it is

The real-life location it's based on does in fact have a highway:

Oh wow! That looks awesome! I hope that’s actually in-game and not just the photo quality

How are they managing to push this much content? I'd imagine a good amount of it must have been delayed from 0.26, but that alone can't account for it. Is there a new off-road vehicle team in addition to the on-road vehicle team?

This update has been literal years in the making - no super powers involved here! Just tons of hard work and perseverance. The work on some of the upcoming content started life 5 years ago, for example (and only now have we been able to finish it to our modern standards).

Does it mean some of the stuff was finished or near finished before, and you are only releasing it now to fit the theme of the map?

Like what things were started 5 years ago? The map(makes sense)? The van? The buggy (that would make sense)? The SBR4 thing (also makes sense)? Or what?

Has this update taken the longest from concept to release?

Not exactly, but you will find out more once the release is live.

I cannot tell you how much i am looking forward to reading the changelog when the update drops

AAricie · Dec 8, 2022

I wonder in the background. On the left you can see what I assume is the end of the map with the mountains, but on the right it doesn’t seem to end. I really wonder how they’re managing that. Like is it just the render distance not showing mountains really far, how do they end the map? If they’re really copying the original place it can’t be an ocean. I’m really curious.

Maybe I'm still a bit subconsciously disappointed by the map not being set in Australia (which is 100% a "me"-problem) but I'm still not that excited for it. I'm sure it'll win me over once I get to drive there.

As far as the Autobricko is concerned, I'm all over it. I don't even know why I like it this much lol
