    Unless they turned the map into something like Cliff Roads mod, with a tiny city and dangerous roads and tunnels, that mod itself could even be official content with how well made it is

    I can actually see that map becoming official content. However, I don't think it would take the "Cliff" name. Cliffs main purpose was to be a cliff, not a town. It's main purpose is so basic that it cannot be improved upon. I love Cliff, like everyone else, but it just has no potential for anything to be added to it.

    What about some offroad trails for the cliff map?

    I believe that a new map could be coming. AFAIK, every map other than cliff has undergone a remaster and cliff doesn’t really need a remaster for its intended purpose. It’s been 3 years since the last all new map.

    Key words are “all new”
    Gridmap V2 is just a heavily updated gridmap.

    No, it's based on Gridmap but it's a completely different map with all new assets, you can have both at the same time and they don't conflict

    Gridmap V2 is still supposed to be an evolution of the original Gridmap, it's a new map but it's not a new new map

    Hey, updating Cliff would be a worthwhile task!

    Sure it functions fine as-is, but remember that the game is being upgraded across the board with PBR. At some point, Cliff will probably get some fresh terrain visuals and updated rock & vegetation assets.

    Granted, I wouldn't expect it to ever be the centrepiece of an update, but I do think that a Cliff remaster is an inevitability.

    The Cliff map itself shouldn't be turned into a map like Cliff Roads because it has its own importance in the game. It's a no-nonsense map, for those who want to test the properties of gravity and the properties of the crash model (edit: plus the properties of the handling model, for those who want to climb it up starting from the bottom, from the beach).
    Unless...
    ...they do it this way. Have the classic Cliff map and a Cliff Roads version coexist. Both maps have their unique spots after all! ;)
    --- Post updated ---
    "Just a heavily updated gridmap" is an understatement, I believe, since the Dev Team remade it literally from scratch/from the ground up.

    Yep looks like it
    i hope it's a sign that we are close to release date
    well it's only a sign that apart from the two cars perhaps nothing new is about to come

    Just a reminder that Leeloo actually said in the Traxion interview that they deliberately don't do the teasers in a predictable fashion so people don't go all crazy thinking that a teaser being shown or not is a sign of an update coming soon
    Also, the 1st update of the year has been at the end of march/start to mid of April for almost every update since they started this 3/4 months between updates thing so there's no reason it would come a month early this time
