Update Speculation thread

And the facelifted version got a sound air pressure warning instead of a small fold-out flap in the front top of the windsheld.

 

Also, how about Hirochi making more "Porsches"?

A 2000s car that's like a cheaper Carrera GT (450 HP 3.4 V6)?
Blending the Juke and the Macan to make a small sporty CUV, from 135 to 335 HP (or 195 to 480 HP in an EV based on the 2nd gen Macan)?
An affordable 90s mid-engined car, from 100 to 195 HP, that mixes the first Boxster and the third MR2?

 

Did I hear someone say "Hirochi SB-Cross"?

 

The Aurata front end is oddly fitting.

Or how about a bigger, Cayenne-inspired 00s car - from a 130 HP 1.8 I4 all the way to a 410 HP S2 with a twin-turbo V6, and including a Transsyberia-like model?

 

i really hope next update the new map gets released

 

Japanese one ?

 

So far all we know is island

 

Reminds me of the Stambecco and Moonhawk facelifts. They're so subtle that they are barely facelifts imo

 

The counterpoint is that a car that old would likely be pretty quick to model, so it won't be too much of a time sink for them to work on. It probably wouldn't be much harder to make than the piano lol

 

Speaking of which, I think the real vehicle that needs a remaster is the metal box.

 

Speaking in a serious capacity, some of the props could do with an update. Just off the top of my head:

-The rocks need new textures so that they blend in with more maps
-The concrete barriers could use new JBeams that allow them to be linked together, along with sloped end pieces and more texture options
-The road signs could use a diamond-shaped option, along with matching new textures to cover a few more styles of sign

 

Actually, having different skins for the rocks could be cool

And the Road Signs are extremely underused

 

The rollover sled has got some of the game's most intricate mechanical modeling, which I'm sure would look great with a PBR update. Plus, it could be expanded to include different types of crash test devices (an impact sled, for instance).

 

in general it would be great to see more test focused props, like dynos or suspension testers. Maybe also vehicle lifts?

 

Antique yellow stop sign texture !

 

Now that I actually look at it again, I'd forgotten that the road sign WAS updated to add in diamond-shaped signs at some recent point, along with the yield sign.

But I still feel like we could do with a few more key signs, particularly:


Intersection/Traffic Light ahead

Wildlife/Animal warning signs (suitable for whichever maps might concieveably match)


Truck Crossing/Truck Entrance warning signs


Fallen/Falling Rocks warning sign


Bump/Speed Bump warning signs


Slippery Road/Road Slippery When Wet sign


Road Closed / Dead End sign

And just to add in one more:

The classic Do Not Enter, with an optional Wrong Way sub-sign.

 

What if we could also customize the speed limit sign to whatever speed we want?

Or, we could have it in kph as well? (For Canada and Mexico)

 

And Europe.

 

Europe doesn’t have road signs like that, right? I thought these were more “North American” road signs. (I said it in quotes because certain countries in Central America use them as well)

 

Europe has kph road signs.
