Dude what... you're telling me after all this time I can just press ctrl + shift + d.... 😅

[@BeamBot]

I know, right?! 😂 I had no clue either! I really appreciate you commenting. I never thought channels with 1M+ subscribers would ever watch my content. Thank you! 😁

[@rico-228]

@@BeamBot why games like BeamNg and ARMA are better than those simulation games created by government?

[@jacobcargen238]

You can also rewind by holding the insert key.

[@_ulick]

kind of a new addition

[@henrydomanboi8327]

oh hi nick, i too had no idea, ps love your vids :)

[@Cobra_427]

The deflate random tire keybind will be great for realistic tire failure crashes, much better than using the node grabber

[@taquito1561]

Yeah, i've always just slowed down time 100 times and just grab the tire, guess I'll be using this now, it's much more practial

[@elliottball2739]

It's truly a game changer slowing down yo 100 times. Accidently ripping of a wheel and taking the axle with it just isn't it

[@2head32]

Slowing down time just to rip my entire chassis out from the car

[@Bonnie_pirate9536]

When i'm trying grab tire with node grabber, i broke axle or i damage the car.

[@Retikulum01]

Most of them got added this version

[@BigDaddyTimberWolf]

same, omg

[@LucasBE1]

I really love your style of videos, it's short, goes straight to the point, and you aren't using a bazillion meshslaps. I really hope you get more subscribers and a bigger audience in general. Really cool to see the game shown properly :D

[@vanillevaschnille9336]

I agree, its refreshing to see someone who actually understands the game

[@gregdabrat]

Yea, that's why i love this channel, it isn't over hyper content like beamngshorts

[@BeamBot]

Thank you very much for the kind words, I really do appreciate it! 😁

[@SHRModding]

Agree. What are mesh slaps?

[@RallyElite]

@@SHRModding someone slaps usually a high poly/too high res mesh on a default jbeam.

[@EvanG529]

I have to say, I love doing flatbed deliveries and controlling it from walking mode. So much more enjoyable.

[@BeamBot]

Totally agree! 👍

[@tygotechengaming1623]

I have a mod for you! Its the working winches mod, it adds working winches for the flatbeds so you can tow broken cars on it

[@mikesteven3611]

@Tygo Tech En Gaming maybe im thinking of something else. But i swear i tried that map and personally couldnt figure it out. BUT.... ive been playing for 4 years and just now learned you can walk around 🤷‍♂️

[@tandy1029]

1,700 hours and I still didn't know half of these. Deflate random tire is gonna be amazing for realistic tire failure crashes.

[@OIIO_BEAMNG]

I didn't know half of those features, thanks for showing us!. Also, there is a ''feature'' that I think is very nice: when you check the ''auxiliary debug content'' box in the lower right corner off the map selection, you will be able to access the showroom map, the ''automated testing map'' (a very weird almost empty map with a very long no texture road) and the template map (usefull to starts experimenting with the map editor). Btw I really love your videos, and I can easily tell how much effort you put into them. You are definitely an inspiration to me. I hope you get more audience because you really deserve it!

[@BeamBot]

You're welcome, I'm glad you learned something new! Yes, I'm aware of those hidden maps! Honestly, it would have been a good idea to put the showroom map on this list. Thank you, I do work hard on these videos. It may just be a 2 minute video, but it takes HOURS to brainstorm, plan, record, and edit. Thanks again 😁

[@n.o6889]

The auto test map is the map used to generate the stats in the vehicule selection sreen

[@ExtenPro]

I've been playing BeamNG for almost 10 years, but I saw some features for the first time in this video. Thank you for the useful information =)

[@BeamBot]

Glad it helped, you're welcome! 😄

[@ashthewolfdog1380]

BeamNG has gotta be one of the coolest games I ever spent my money on.

[@BeamBot]

100% agree

[@dee23gaming]

Agreed. Money well spent 😁

[@kiraxxxxxxxxx]

I have 2,5K Hours on Steam, and I know most of the stuff in the video (from new and old updates) but i never knew about deflating a random tire key combo. Thanks for that, mate!

[@madmanjosh8975]

It's insane that a game can have so many features yet still not be at v1.0 yet

[@fillman86]

well hey, I learned about spawning to the last road hotkey :) thanks

[@BeamBot]

Hey, it's filman! Thanks for commenting, I'm glad you discovered something new! 😁

[@ShadowWolfe]

_This_ is how you do a Top 10 style list! Keep it short, informative, and engaging! I never knew about any of these, even after watching NerdCubed play this, plus my (currently) 183 hours on the game.

[@BeamBot]

Thank you! 😉 Glad you discovered something new! 😁

[@Fluffy_g3]

I have over 1k hours and I didn't even know ctrl shift d changed the time

[@vycanismelodis]

the hotlapping tool is absolutely what i needed in this game oh my gosh

[@kiraxxxxxxxxx]

I use to record AI for all cars ... 😢

[@epicdude3659]

i still find it hard to believe that this game is 10 years old already.

[@Copletic]

I can't believe how much this guy cares about his fans, this video was made 6 days ago and all the comments are read, even the ones made 5 hours ago.

😁

[@quintuhhh]

Got over 1000 hours in this game and this dude tellin me I can deflate tires with a keybind? Nahh

[@dark_bearg8556]

with 430 hours on the clock. I have never ever seen the hotlapping tool or the random tire deflate tool. This is crazy! Thank you for sharing this to us and thanks to the algorithym for putting this video on my feed. this has to be one most useful videos I have ever seen on youtube haha!

[@BeamBot]

Thank you for the hotlapping I been wanting to race so but I had to put it on chase or flee and it wasn’t good

[@user-yg4og8hj2j]

Even though I don't have beamng, I find it fascinating that a 2013 game has almost real life physics! Good video!

[@SkyyMi]

That flatbed in walk mode is so awesome. Definitely will be using that from now when doing tow runs.

[@Septicon_202]

How did u get this truck with flatbed ?

[@Ponlets]

did not know of the hotlapping bits neat :)

[@Destroyer_UA]

I've known BeamNG for over 5 years, and I still don't know some features. It probably also helps the whole fact that I don't actually have the game. 😅

[@wecrashgames]

Nice job!

[@BeamBot]

Thanks! Cheers! 🥂

[@Tincoco_]

That first one is insane. I’ve been wanting to deflate single tires but didn’t know there was a button

[@liamtitan5598]

Dude I have 3k hours in this game and I still learned new things. Well done,

[@D_Wave]

Hot Lapping is something that every person needs to know, and many of us have wanted to know.

[@FerralVideo]

Okay, I learned several things today. Ctrl-Shift-H and D, hotlap tool (and the ability to command AI to race along the checkpoints!), and recover to last road are things that I learned!

[@Thatgreenmonke]

I love this guy he's so good! I had no idea this stuff was here😅

[@JoshDrivesManual]

i cant believe ive been playing this game for 5 years and i didnt knew half of these things, thanks BeamBot!

Knew everything other than the first, that would be so useful!

Had no idea about the hotlap, thanks!

[@BeamBot]

You bet!

[@mrlongschlong4370]

wow those 2 minutes actually felt like 10, this video is really peak efficiency, everything I want to know packed in a very short video, without anything I don't want or anything unnecessary. Also I only knew you could open door's in the ring menu, everything else is new to me

[@BeamBot]

Thank you very much, it's good to hear that you learned some new features!

[@gooseonfire735]

i have been playing beam for a good 5 years now and i had NO IDEA about those keybinds, very handy!

[@BeamBot]

Glad you enjoyed the video! 😁

[@AlexandreBugado]

They fixed the radial menu in missions. Before this off road update, you could just go into missions and select whichever vehicle presets you wanted. I had saved a Scintila with drag tires and a machine gun that I would use for fun in the police chase missions.

[@iRicardoTM]

There's an option in the menu to do that I believe. It's called "competitive mode" or something like that. It's activated by default.

[@TrashPandaPirate]

I had no idea about the deflate tire one or the daytime nighttime one

[@Yesdontask]

Thanks bro it saved me alot of trouble

[@linux_doggo]

ive been playing since 2013, never know about new features usually as i tend to just play the game the way ive been playing since the very beginning, thanks

[@marwintalens7066]
