Update Speculation thread

the tin foil hat in my closet is telling me that since I just got back into the game, it may happen again. I last played, thoroughly, about 6 years ago.

 

You could always buy the BeamNG waifu mugs on the merch store by the case

 

Smash

 

I actually love the fact that we have an official waifu.

 

Totally agree. I don’t want to be overhyped about the update, since we may be waiting for a bit. I think maybe a few more teasers further down the line closer to release could be healthy, but right now is a bit much.

 

Just a little more clarification. Be prepared for a little wait; I'm sure it will be worth it.

 

I do wonder what this big mysterious delay worthy thing could be. Very excited to find out!

 

Yeah I have to say this "months of delay" thing kind of hypes me as much as a regular teaser. Bound to be something big and important if it takes this much time.

 

It is Tuesday but my hopes are minimal

 

We probably won't get anything from the devs for at least a few more weeks, that's why the thread is pretty much dead at the moment.

 

Delaying for a couple of Month sounds not so good for me. Maybe i'm a little more pessimistic.

We had always WIP Implemetion in the Update for example the Career Mode. So WIP Tyres or Clouds should not delaying an update. Also the Devs are very cryptic in their announcement.
So i got 4 things in mind.

1. Secruity
We had to handle infected mods and BeamMP got Problems a few weeks ago. Maybe teh Devs must handle some Secruity breach Problems which could also delay Updates.

2. Internal Restructure
Maybe some Key Devs leave the Team and now they need to look for new People and these people also had to learn the Engine.

3. Legal Problems
I came from Germany as the Team from Beam. So German bureaucracy could really a Pain in the Arse. Legal Fights could also delay the Update.

4. Financial Problems
This might be the less probability but fix cost raised in Germany and maybe the Team had to fire some Devs which slows down the Progress or also could stop it.

 

Sans one infected mod, security had been a non issue. The team has been growing steadily and the most recent job listings have the figure at over 90 employees total. Legal?…No comment. And they shouldn’t have financial problems given the team expansion/hiring. The game is more popular than ever.
I personally think ambition/scope is the reason for the delay. Could be a thing they’re adding to all vehicles like when they made doors and latches openable. Maybe they’re adding fuel filler doors to all the cars

 

Hello dev you are doing a very good job

 

i'm not fussed about when the update comes, because i know it will be good no matter what.

 

My thoughts exactly! It's like cooking; no matter how good the smell is (this is the teaser in BeamNG parlance), you absolutely don't want to rush the food, otherwise you risk eating it uncooked and it may not be as tasty or as well made and bound together!

I should also point out that we also got the mighty 1100CUI Belasco-Diesel V8 for the T-Series in 0.33 and that was already announced in the news for the 0.32, 5 months before it actually got out!

Fun fact: the Belasco-Diesels, all 3 of them, are amongst my top favorite engines in BeamNG and they're addicting - I rock my house and my neighborhood with their basey growls in my home cinema speakers every now and then!
I hope we see a Belasco-Diesel expansion towards the Wentward DT40-L and the Pick-Up Truck market sometime in the future! This brand has a great potential!

 

I have not been on the forums in a logn time. Can someone plz update me with whats going on recently?

 

uhh currently not much there where some teasers like a new car got teased and what looks like volumetric clouds are being worked on but the update has been delayed so no new teasers for a bit i recommend either reading back through this thread or check the beamng yt to see all the new stuff teased

 

I’m glad to hear that nothing really negative is going on. I’m sure large updates have plenty of bugs that need to be ironed out. You guys can take your time, I’ll be patiently waiting for this update, which I’m sure is going to be worthwhile. You all are seriously some of the best devs out there

 

well im just hoping we get this update before may
