Update Speculation thread

I've been thinking (and I could have sworn that I'd already suggested) that the T-series recieve a de-facelift to better match its supposed era.

Not much to it really - just swap out the lights on top of the cab for rounded ones:


Create a new hood with round turn signals and a cutout for an external air intake:


And most importantly, create a new headlight style with round lights (or light, as the case may be). For this, I quickly photoshopped by shrinking a 1975 Mack-R-series headlight assembly with the corrugated panel behind the light and rotating it 90 degress before inserting it:


That would be everything we need for a true 1975 T-series. The existing version could be used to cover, say, 1983-1994.

 

A face lift would be possible too. the closest real life equivalent to the T series which is the International 9000 series was made through the 2000's so a more aerodynamic front end would be possible. Really the T series could end up being the most customizable BeamNG vehicle if they wanted to. up there with the D Series and H series.

Don't get me started on the possibility of a COE on the T series chassis.

 

I want an honest to god old school Peterbilt or Kenworth cab over. It's about time.

 

Does anyone think that Career mode might come this update?

 

Maybe? .20 is kind of a big deal (as 20%) but I honestly expect it to be later

 

no, alot of other stuff is going on and they would probably announce it

 

This is not how numbering for version works... the number doesn't correspond to how far development has gone, it isn't like math where after the point you have a decimal fraction (0.20 = 1/5), but just the number of the current version of the game in chronological order (0.20 = 20th major version).

I'm pretty sure we'll get 1.0 way before 0.99

 

I know, I just like progress indicators, so I kind of let myself be ignorant on this front - I mean honestly I can see .50 or even .40 being 1.0.

Source?

 

I think the thread's name is something along the lines of beamng drive 2

 

I don't mean to be rude, but there's nothing under that name. I mean you get the usual results from the keywords "beamNG drive" but nothing like that.

 

I don't remember where, but i read it somewhere

I did some research and it seems that i am wrong. https://steamcommunity.com/app/284160/discussions/0/2860219962090936299/

 

I meant the car

 

it's a WIP mod he's working on

 

I sure hope they fixed a lot of our complains with WCUSA. Other than that, it seems like this is going to be an "improvement update" (As it seems like it is going to have more remasters, revamps and upgrades than new content)

 

Just curious, are you actually worried that the racetrack won't be moved to another map? I'm kinda worried too ngl.

 

Cool can't wait.

I hope there's gonna be some sort of model t type car. I know there's mods, etc. I mean look, the game has basically every era of autos except for back then. Does anyone think that maybe the devs will add this sometime. Maybe a gavril or another random single make car like burnside

 

Uh, prewar cars? Uh, while I think they would be cool. I don't think they're gonna get added anytime soon, tbh. Anyways, I'll let the user I quoted just above your post make a super long rant about pre-war cars.

 

I doubt they will move the race track, and I hope not.

Driving your race car on a trailer to the track brings great immersion. I don't know any other games where you could do that tbh, and that's just what BeamNG is good at - Adding things that other games are lacking.
