Update Speculation thread

Its the '70s again maaaaan, time to get a boogie on to 'd' Bee Gees, dust off that blue velvet jacket and flared pants ( don't forget the red leather pointy shoes ) and a pack of Camels man. Time to get hip... hmmm now i'm in my disco mood

 

The lighting looks better?

 

Proper time slips would be awesome! Would love to see this data when tuning cars.

 

Yeah, that's the feeling I have too. The lightning looks better on nadeox's video, they are probably imrpoving their graphic remaster added some updates ago
(are we speculating on a video where nadeox said it was "completely meaningless" ?)

 

Does nobody notice the new horizon and sky effects? not to mention the lighting looks to have a better hue as well.

 

Man, you can't just come out and say the video is completely meaningless and then say something is in game. Those two are mutually exclusive. Here's my thought: we are getting an option to mirror the maps. That's a cheap and easy way to make "more" maps because mirrored maps always feel like brand new ones.

 

but it would still have the same content, so it wouldn't be as interesting as a whole new map or a revamp

 

Mirrored maps might look odd because most text will be mirrored.

 

well by the looks of it, gridmap's lighting has been altered

 

I think it's a result of the work in progress lighting improvements.

 

Uh I see some new things... also I feel that some objects are moved

 

Some sort of fisheye lens effect on the camera and it's upsidown, I don't believe that's possible in the game at the moment normally without external video editing or whatever so when he says 100% ingame it probably means that it's new camera effects
Skybox also looks a little different but I'll guess it shares a generic one which has also been improved for the other maps

 

That's always been there, it's just that the image is mirrored

 

Hmm the outside of the boxed area looks different but that could be me

 

I flipped the image, and nothing has changed other than the skybox I think.

 

If Nadeox1 says its meaningless then it probably is.
Just take what he says at face value, because there totally isn't a Soliad Wendover hiding in this video if you look hard enough.

 

I can’t even tell if your joking lol cause the wendivef is dead

 

no updates from the devs doesn't mean it's dead
it is clearly not the top priority right now because new awd system and vivace, but it's somewhere on the list of future content. it may not seem like there has been any development, but under the covers there may have been some. look at the bluebuck. everybody thought it was "dead", until it was confirmed to be in-game.

 

Does the video have new or old foliage colours? I have difficulty telling them apart without a comparison.
