Update Speculation thread

nadeox just posted this picture in community screenshots.
new race tire textures?

 

no, they wouuld never do that to race tires, this looks more like dirty tires to me.
Dynamic dirty tire textures?

 

I disagree, they look like racing slicks

Best example I could find of a used racing tire

 

Then why are the sides so dirty (in an irregular way)?
In my experience at least, this kind of wear never happens unless you really f--- up.

 

That's a good point, but the wear still seems pretty realistic and natural, it doesn't go the whole way up the wall of the tire.

I still doubt it's dynamically applying tire wear, but it would certainly be nice

I guess this implies the Blueback is done, considering the thumbnail is no longer needed?

 

The Gaga Bubu has shown it's true form

So, does this mean the bluebuck is basically done?
discuss.

 

More like at least one config is finished so they can take a thumbnail. Which I guess means it could be in a releasable state. They might still be working on non-factory configs or anything that isn't cosmetic.

Now I want to see previous temporary thumbnails, assuming they have used temporary thumbnails opposed to a blank thumbnail

 

So, Bluebuck has a higher percentage to be in 0.17?

 

I would definitely think so.

It seems the developers want to keep the car a surprise until release, this may be the last teaser we will get?

 

Oh look, a literal Bluebuck.

I've been thinking that there has always been a decent chance of the Bluebuck being in 0.17 ever since the teasers started showing up.

 

"The bluebuck is an extinct species of antelope that lived in south Africa until around 1800" -Wikipedia

I can never look at this car the same again. Gaga Bubu is one thing, but an extinct species is where I draw the line.

 

what the fcuk

anyhow, as the bluebuck appears to be mostly done, when do we (let me talk for yall lol) think this update will come?

 

Micro Blog(s) - 2018-2019

Back to back teasers today...

 

Well saying by that am glad they have humor, The bluebuck is a sweet 60s V8 Sedan ( with a inline 6 ) The name Bubu was bad But ok as devs made it a joke, and was ok at first, Then Gaga Bubu. I mean woah what is that HAHA ( can see funny side )

Really cant't wait am counting down to this Epic car.

Kinda funny as i am jsut playing Mafia 3 , And getting into the 60s Era ( Before mafia 2 ) I like the idea of the 60s, And i am MR odd so i like
4 doors

 

WANT

 

Nice. Looks like well be finally be getting the Bluebuck. I wonder if there will be any related scenarios with it, since very few new ones have been added within a year. The autobello scenario is fun but it's built in such a way that anything aside from it or the Pigeon is too big...


How many days has it been since the last update? I'd be surprised if we don't see one major teaser before release.

 

"Thank you for your service, temporary thumbnail." An official send-off for the WIP thumbnail? That would mean that it will soon be at least in good enough shape to look at - expect teasers soon.

 

I hope they put it on a billboard or something, it's too funny.

 

Maybe I'm just imagining this, but does the D-Series look a bit flatter on the sides in this pic? With all of the body reshaping going on in older vehicles, it wouldn't surprise me if they made a few changes to the D-Series.
