Update Speculation thread

i dont understand why people hate when the devs dont stick to the 3 month schedule if they need more time making their product polished and finished just let them. ill rather wait longer for more content and a finished product than a unfinished and little to no new content .

 

this

 

That's what I'm traying to say and maybe I've made it sound wrong, but I think the devs are being too harsh on themselves by trying to go back to the 3 month schedule, there's too much happening at once.

I think it'd be okay if they go back to 6 month schedule if it means they bring a more polished final product

 

They every update is polished and big, with this thinking we could wait a 9-10 years like for GTA VI or 15 years for Fallout 5. Or you want 6 months period to get more cars ?

 

I'm not saying this for the cars, I think as of now BeamNG is very diverse in this topic already, there'll always have a niche to fulfill, but that's not what I'm talking about, I'm talking about tire thermals that were promised for 0.26 and weren't delivered and they probably won't have time to polish it on this 3 month schedule, the revised aero the devs told me they'd look into and just vanished.

The updates as of now are polished enough, but they still require hotfixes, hotfixes are what I think causes more problems for the devs pipeline than we think, because it may just push back another feature because they were correcting something else and you know how coding works, you fix one thing and another one breaks

 

I honestly have no problem with them reverting to the half year cycle but the amount of content has to show the time be worth it.

 

Exactly it’s not that important when the updates arrive but rather if the content is good. I would actually prefer a 3 month update schedule with less content than 6 months with more content to be honest

 

I rather wanna have the door opening feature for all vanilla cars as i have too much fun opening it then closing it with a little force via Nodegrabber to be honest with ya all!

What i would like but that will not happen is they take another 6 month round and remaster just about all remaining vehicles to finally be done with it and have tons of additional vehicle content as many of them offering plenty of opportunities for other body styles.

 

yeah, just hope they'd pay a bit more attention or reserve some more time for bugtesting before releases.

 

More ABS stuff

Supposedly that was one of the reasons for the 6 month update schedule, to automate some of the bugtesting and reduce the amount of hotfixes needed for future updates

Just hope they fix the issue were the car doesn´t brake at all (it´s rare but when on racing maps of some sort always happen, I think it´s linked with a quick change of surface of some sort because it usually happens when changing terrain like from the road to grass)

 

Diamondbacks said that he’s looking for a solution for that problem but it might still take some time. They are definitely working on it

 

I could survive an update without a new car or a remaster in favor of some QoL things, features other than cars or a big bug hunt.

 

Well you should line out that "some" because if there would be an update without any new content the amount of Qol fixes and such has to be huge or big otherwise i personally would be rather disappointed.

 

If they focused the update specifically on some major technical stuff, like a new thermals system, many people would still complain about how it didn't bring anything new (especially given that the latest updates were rather big when it comes to new cars).

But combining the QoL fixes with the upcoming K-Series revamp, for example, would be enough to justify a larger update IMO. Content-hungry people would be somewhat satisfied, and under-the-hood updates would add to the overall experience.

 

There is wisdom in this mans words!

 

Showing the new tire thermals on the upcoming Pick-Up Truck would also be great since the car is probably gonna have a great mass to move around, so the tires are gonna have a hard time during performance driving.

 

A match made in heaven!

 

You guys talk like there aren't different teams to work with different things.

 

SO i wonder if this new ute is a New ute. OR just a pre-runner new body on a D-series Frame.

To save time they may of also made the NEW Ute on the OLD D-series frame BUT i don't think that will be the case.

Seeing how since like 2005 ute are becoming luxury cars ( The US high trim utes ) I think this may fill the luxury car void ( some what ) I mean the facelifted 2000s D-series can be made to look very nice.

However i wonder what work version we will get?

Also should be super safe.

talking of all that. i wonder if it will be a USA massive pick up

Or a smaller japan size one like Toyota Hilux. Ford ranger. Mitsubishi triton ( how ever you spell it )


makes me wonder.


ANYAWY OT

Other then wanting a aussie car ( Moonhawk sedan and/or ute will do even if its LHD )


I will live a Chinese car from before 2010. When they looked terrible ( but in a cool way )
smashed like a Cardboard box. And was easy to fall to bits.

Anyawy sorry for off topic with that.


as for the ute. I guess next teaser will let us know. OR they may tease us with the ETK parts they teased with a while ago, Or the next remaster. time will tell.
