Update Speculation thread

It's sort of like back and forth communication between two parties

 

It's probably just a normal Miramar with a beacon light thrown on it.

 

Here, Webster's dictionary will explain the definition far better than I ever could, and there's buttons at the top of the screen so you can hear it being pronounced.

It's one of those strange words that only kinda-sorta looks like how it sounds.

 

Unless BeamNG wasn't showing us all of it if there was a "new map" (500th message yippee)

 

I hope that the quarry is long enough to make a rally course through

 

All it is is a flatbed with a winch

*Falls over laughing*

 

I could see a T-Series config with one already strapped on it like the logging trucks.

 

Im praying an underground section is available to dig out. Thatd be cool

 

If it were a new map and shared assets with Italy it could potentially be based in southern France or Spain, which would be awesome as I would love to see another Euro map. It would make a bit more sense if this weren't Italy, as it has very narrow and tight roads, but like I've previously said, these unapologetically large vehicles don't owe us drivability on public roads.

 

Oooohhh would love to see it being Japanese! I hadn't thought of this option and although it's probably just a coincidence the Miramar could be a hint to that

Maybe it's inspired by the Unit Rig Lectra Haul M... from the 60s-70s?

 

Big boi this, ( cant wait ) was not really into Semi trucks till the T-series trucks, Till That update ( god 2 years ago since t-series remake )
was not into Medium duty trucks till the MD-series

Same with mine trucks, cant wait, Also interested in the map stuff,

Who needs a monster tuck when you have this big big rig.... GOD The t-series makes the D-series seem like a toy,

This maybe will make the T-series seem liek a toy

 

So I was one update off in my guess of the rumored machinery update by tdev lol

As for the quarry, I highly doubt it's a new map. New maps are kind of a big deal, and we always get large amounts of teasers or development posts for a new map. Remember in the past how many teasers we got of Johnson Valley and the tons of development posts for the West Coast and Italy development. Italy makes the most sense for a new quarry, as there haven't been new locations added since 0.16, I believe. It will probably be a medium sized quarry in one of the empty locations available there. The devs recently started adding new locations to existing maps, like the Dragstrip in Hirochi Raceway in 0.35 and the numerous updates West Coast received, so a quarry in Italy seems pretty likely. The quarry on West Coast is already too small, and it's unlikely they will expand it.

The dump truck also looks amazing! I guess we won't be needing the Belaz anymore.
Here's also a better image of it:

 

Even though the lore only mentions exports to the US, Australia, and South Africa, I think the labelling of the LHD configs as "export" was an intentional catch-all there. That, and the descriptions mention "left-hand drive markets", plural (South African cars would be RHD).

 

I don't think they'd make it too old, probably 70s at the most

 

I saw them, but my brain mainly went to the vehicular monster treading on the Miramar! Oops!

 

This is kind of a wild guess, but maybe one of Italy's prop islands will finally be made use of as a quarry?

 

they did it before with spearleaf

 

Getting back to the truck, when he takes off the Miramar, you don't hear the gears shifting, but rather the engine hitting its rev limiter, a bit like a CVT would.
Could this indicate that it has a diesel-electric propulsion system ?

Do you mean the big empty island next to the actual island of Italy ?

 

i just rewatched it and you can hear it shifting gears its just a very fast gearshift like a powershift transmission on a tractor

 

Good point, I never even thought of that! There's a lot of islands around, so it's definitely a possibility

Sounds like a really slushy auto
