Well..

Looks like I'm getting a new computer soon lol

Too bad I don't really like any VR sets on the market currently... It's a shame that there are so few decent options for an emerging market like that

 

That cleared things up a bit) thanks, will test it out

 

Or Subaru-based.

 

Well, most sources say That the SBR is based on the Porsche 911, but hirochi is Japanese, so they dont exactly match up, but hey, it BeamNG...

 

I made a list of all the beamng cars irl variants so you could go check that out

 

Tbh, I wasn't expecting the new SxS to be a Hirochi, I was surprised quite a bit. On the other hand though, this also means that we're also gonna see street-legal variants of the new vehicle.

Exactly, after all, fiction is equally as important as reality is in this sim!
With that said though, I'd love to see Hirochi widening its Boxer/Flat engine offerings across its model lineup (talking to you Sunburst), but the new SxS doesn't help with that, tbh.

 

Not necessarily.

At this point it's safe to say Hirochi is more of a general industry/engineering company than just an automotive manufacturer. Think Honda/Hitachi/Yamaha/Mitsubishi (technically Subaru as well since they are involved in aerospace and railroads, but they aren't generally known for that stuff so...). Honda does make traditional side by sides.


At least in the US, laws concerning street use of Side by Sides are regulated at the local level, not federal. Which means the laws are all over the place.

 

Touching on the subject if itll be west coast or industrial map expansion, ive tried to make arguments for both sides, i wonder if i missed something, or it could be some other map / new map?

 

im still waiting for a grid map pure remaster

 

To me Hirochi seems like the (relatively) small Japanese company oriented towards the enthusiast market and the SxS definitely helps with that. Boxers probably are for the normal passenger cars of this brand, like the SBR4 (and the Sunburst and any other normal Hirochi passenger car, hopefully some time in the future).
Also, Subaru is part of the Fuji Heavy Industries corporation, which also produces electronics.
As for the US laws on SxSs, dunno really. But again, I see quite a few ATVs registered and driven/ridden here in Greece, so it depends on the country I guess.

 

Dry Rock Island remaste- oh wait...

 

I imagine the comparison to Yamaha comes from the Piano, which is made by Hirochi. Yamaha makes small motor vehicles such as side-by-sides, as well as musical instruments such as pianos.

 

East Coast East Coast East Coast East Coast

 

If we're getting a proper east coast remaster in 0.30 I would be thrilled, I think I'm in the minority of people who like ECU over WCU

 

WCU looks more noble at the moment, and ECU is too bright, too green and mottled, it could use a remaster, at least in the color scheme.

 

same i like how it feels like a real town that i could be in. WCUSA feels too foreign to me.

 

I love east coast but an oil refinery does not make sense for it, coming from someone who lives in the northeast USA. I'm very confident, judging from the foliage and use of oil, that this is wcusa except with an expansion.
