I dont think youll get fried for it. The dev team can still be great while at the same time acknowledging that occasionally they release things that don't meet their typical very high quality standard. There are things that would be easy to fix. I can't imagine switching all the headlights would take all that long but I guess that depends on how abstracted the code that controls it is, as in whether it needs to be re written for every car and to what extent. I think the best thing would be for the community to push for what they want, as they really do listen to us which is great.

Of course, thats not to say they don't do good work. They still have a fantastic attention to detail compared to really any other game, I mean look at the slop GTA Online is getting people to pay for. A 7 year old could model a better civic than they did as a multi billion dollar company.

 

so uh what is this early 60's Chrysler looking car

it aint a blue buck

 

what is this from?

this one

 

Yeah, I agree ETK I-series would be a great base for S1 E2 quattro style vehicle perhaps with shorter wheelbase and crazy aero. This again would be another great opportunity to introduce a proper rival in form of awd MR covet. It would fit right in. I also think there is still a niche to fill in form of mid-engined awd group B style car. After all it was arguably peak rallying and that specific layout was the most accomplished of them all. One can dream.

 

also the italic letters spell out HIDDEN so that's why I think we might be getting some sort of new car

 

Is it just me, or does that kinda look like the Dynamo?

 

similar styling but I dont think it is

depending on what end it what this new car has very pronounced tailfins or fenders

 

I hope we can get more clues about sunburst remaster tonight.

 

but that won't be in the true spirit of the devs literally giving the vaguest hints of anything happening

 

that is most definitely a bluebuck

 

That's what I thought after looking at it

 

dependint

it ain't a bluebuck

 

How it looks just like one and has the colors

 

I think the hidden part was the new fencing

 

My oh my, imagine the turbo F4s in the Sunburst with anti-lag! Also, imagine a Vivace Rally X config and the 1.6 I4/2.5 I5 having anti-lag integrated in their Race ECUs too! My dad's classic (and still bangin') Technics speakers are gonna love'em even more than they do now! Mmm-hmm!

I absolutely agree but Cherrier could also have a say in Group B racing since it's got the 5-cylinder! An earlier version of the 5-cylinder with smaller displacement (say 2.2 liters) would be great in the car you just described.
The I-Series doesn't really look like a Group B car, it's more of a race track car. Yeah, the Rally config is awesome but it's more towards the more casual Sunday Hillclimb Rallies. Like someone modifying his E30 325i for rallying!
The race track configs are much more serious and this is also evident in the fact that they also have a homologation variant for the street (the ttSport Evolution, with the huge rear wing and the 5-spoke ETK Aero-5 wheels).
In my opinion, the I-Series is much more appropriate for big boy racing on the tracks than for big boy rallying.

I hope they do put it on all Ibishu cars with the 2.0 DOHC I4 and have been hoping for this since the 0.32 dropped.

Plus it's too narrow for a modern Japanese export car of its class. 1688mm of width (according to the relative blueprint poster) is more in line with the Japanese regulations and, actually, it's narrower than the quite a bit older S13-14-15 Silvias/SXs, which were 1695mm wide!

 

It's a Bluebuck, same dashboard, same rear end, same roof, same hood and so on.

 

The tailfins are more pronounced, and the front fenders look to be shaped for round headlights. I'm thinking prefacelift

 

god i hope so

 

What if we get a Bluebuck remaster and a Sunburst remaster in the same update? After all, the dev team has remastered multiple cars at the same time in the past (see 0.24, with the remaster of the '96 Pessima and H-Series), or worked on multiple vehicles at once (see 0.24.1, which had Bastion release and Bolide remaster).
