Update Speculation thread

Is it a full blown remaster though ? The shape is the same for the grille and headlights, it could very well only be a revamp.

 

Well, ETK K need only some tweaks and final touches where Moonhawk, Sunburst and 200BX need a lot more work. Basically they need redone whole cars at this point.

 

Comparing the current model to the one in the teaser, it seems smoother. Plus, the kit would need it's own textures since the changes are quite drastic compared to the Covets addons we saw which were much simpler parts. Also, the K-Series suffers from a similar issue to the 96 Pessima previously which is the lack of fun and parts, not entirely a lack of quality. Though it could still be an add-on, this is just my opinion.

 

It depends of what full-blown remaster means. Maybe it is only a new model, with the same jbeam ?

ooh let the chaos begin

 

I don't see any configs that aren't in the game yet;
I assume stenyak did check what configurations he was going to post

 

I think the oversteer reduction assistant works OK, for most RWD cars set to 130% for drift cars set 100%

 

I wonder if they do the same thing as the do with LeGran remaster and add another Solliad with Moonhawk remaster. Like Soliad Eldorado.
Part of car hidden on this chart looks like side of Moonhawk for me

 

It looks more like 200BX Street Tuned.

 

Anyone notice some new UI apps? Theres police, radio, and something else. They dont have thumbnail images for them.

 

i noticed the radio but not the police app
probably we can add our own music to the game in the future

 

Did I hear radio

 

well, indeed

 

They modelled hinges for the clamshell hood of the Wendover, so there's a chance this could also be done for the retractable roof (whether it's a soft top or a hardtop) of the convertible K-Series.

This would be a great idea but, for the car to make sense as an in-lore Eldorado representative, it must be FWD (which the Moonhawk isn't and it also is no luxury car deep down in its roots, so it's not the best basis for this idea). After all, we have no FWD car with its engine mounted longitudinally.

Apart from this idea, Soliad can also fill in the FWD Full-Size American Luxury Sedan in-lore niche, for making a competitor to the Gavril Grand Marshal (and its more upscale Burnside variant that, hopefully, will be brought with the second phase of the car's remastering). I actually wrote my idea down in the Vehicle Suggestions thread and its name is the Soliad Senator!

P.S.: Strangely enough, a platform like this has great potential!

Yep, the Sunburst is in a dire need of a remastering and it also needs the Flat engines to define the character of it and the whole Hirochi brand within the BeamNG lore.

 

sunburst isnt that bad

 

I would say the Sunburst is the vehicle in most dire need of remastering.

The rear doors aren't even textured on the interior. Still unsure how that has gone so many years without being fixed.

 

rear doors arent textured?

they are probably leaving the cars that need a remaster last for bigger hype maybe

Could the ultrasonic sensors make it into the main game ? That would be cool, especially now that Angelo123 is part of the dev team.
