Update Speculation thread

Which would also fit the crane attachment on the porta potty prop.

Could also be built for a presentation/company, like that garbage truck scenario was?

 

Despite its age, the Piccolina has held up pretty well, all it needs is a minor update

 

I imagine BeamNG is doing a collab with another company and they need to test some inputs that are not easily doable on PC, like that time they made a garbage collecting simulator for a company, so it works on their actual simulation rig.

 

I would want a longer highway or road expansion, maybe expand the road next to the bridge on the coast

That is an OBS sir. The peak old truck

 

Are you still brave enough to give the Seat 600 a try? It's my favourite car of all time and I've got plenty of books with very specific details that could help you design it easily, as well as miniature models

 

Huh, I was hoping there was more to that.

I feel like the Burnside and 200BX have too much potential for a smaller update, so a 80s Pessima, Miramar or ETKI

 

Atari 2600 confirmed????

 

It could be a crane controller, or it could just be a PTO joystick. However, I hope it is a crane.

 

No way I can play on my Nodari 2600 and my NBTV while listening to Hiroshima Piano tunes on Radio Haricot


the universe is shaping up (I actually improvised the TV name bc I forgot what it’s called in-game)

 

Yeah, specially in terms of content. 0.29, 0.27 and little changes here and there really brings it up to modern standards. At first it was definitely lacking tho

 

The CRT TV is Serif branded

 

why do i want a working tv in beam

 

Jokes aside, a car like the Gremlin could very well be added in BeamNG, especially for portraying the "70s American Malaise Era Econobox/Shitbox" status of the more basic versions, which had 4-cylinder engines by then. And the parts for it are already available too! Just imagine it with:

1) some early versions of the already anemic Bruckell 2.2/2.5 I4s, the existing 244CUI 'Econo-Six' I6 and the new 309CUI 'Solace-Eight' V8 (plus the larger 378CUI 'Luxe-Eight' and 448CUI 'Thunder-Eight' V8s for any special and/or crazy custom variant to appear),
2) the 3-Speed column-shifter Manual/Automatic transmissions, plus the 4-Speed and 5-Speed Sport Manuals (plus the 4-Speed Drag Automatic),
3) the 80l fuel tank of the Moonhawk (Malaise Era, don't forget, especially the smaller engines can have a great range with it) and
4) the same independent front and solid-axle rear with the coils separate from the shocks, plus the optional PlusTrak LSD.

In a few words, a fantastic off-the-shelf-parts special!

 

while I quite like the anaemic Bruckell drivetrains, I would like to see them more consistent from the wendover, legran, and lansdale. Also, there are so many things that it could work well in

 

Although I discreetly disagree about the Wendover, because it's not exactly the kind of vehicle to feature 4-cylinder engines as standard, I absolutely agree with you on consistency and I have one notable example: in the Lansdale, the V6 and V8 engines have much more realistic rev limits. In the LeGran and the Wendover, the V6s stop revving @6000rpm and the V8 stops revving @5700rpm. These are very high limits for a typical, non-performance OHV engine of the time. In the Lansdale, the Early Standard ECUs have the following rev limits:

3.3 V6: 5100rpm
3.8 V6: 4800rpm
4.4 V8: 5200rpm

And they're exactly what we expect out of such engines!

As for the 2.2/2.5 I4s, their rev limit is @5800rpm on all three cars, which is also very high for a typical, non-performance OHV engine of the time. It certainly could be a bit lower, 5500rpm max I think.

 

Devs, could we get concept art of a third FCV fascia, just so modders stop using the. Vivase one?

 

I love making a inline 4 Wendova. ( slowDova i call it ) Due to I pretend its a Euro version.
Plus a 2.5 AWD tuned Wendova can be a bit of fun.


OT

We have not had a teaser since Nov. SO i have a feeling its due. I think it could be soon. BUT it may be march we start to get teasers. Then time to speculate for 4 weeks. Then April it should drop. 2 more mouths seems like a long time ;P

BUT that is the worse case i think.
Best case we get teaser Tomorrow and it comes ( the update ) mid/late march if there is no bugs that the devs have to deal with,

Am not gonna say what i think this update will be as i do not know lol,
I hope we get a new car a road car. BUT who knows

 

Tuesday tomorrow!

 

I just want the more realistic ecu's and turbos from the lansdale in the legran and bendover

 

I really really want a teaser
