They ACTUALLY Did It! BeamNG 0.26 Review

[@liamtitan5598]

The devs are correct when they say it’s nice to see people like you play this game as an actual driving sim. It’s seriously the best driving sim but a lot just see it as the crashing sim

[@myztazynizta]

Driving fast sim, maybe. Just cruising around town, the FFB at low speeds sucks ass on my wheel. With a controller there is zero rumble. It's disappointing and dull for my needs.

[@liamtitan5598]

@@myztazynizta I was more talking physics wise. It is the most detailed in the physics departments other than tire thermals which are coming. The FFb def needs to be improved but its decent for me and has been worked on over the past few updates.

[@Gyula.b]

@@myztazynizta if you don't have some crazy expensive wheel you can't expect beamng to put tiny ammounts of ffb from normal driving in there since belt or gear driven wheels usually are not very accurate compared to direct drive wheels

The insane performance improvement of traffic has me thinking that the same beam reducing techniques could be applied to the vehicles that are spawned in BeamMP (modded multiplayer) and while it'd take a lot of effort to do, as every part would need a low beam variant, that's how fully supported multiplayer will likely exist in the future. Right now the multiplayer performance is good enough to barely race 10 cars, and often 8 or less if everyone's driving a higher beam count car which is a significant limitation and the reason there's no officially supported multiplayer, but man, given how things are going, and how successful the multiplayer currently is if your pc can handle it, this update shows a peak at a future where BeamNG has unbelievable gta like multiplayer. The future is bright for BeamNG.

[@cmbaileytstc]

Okay, I’ve played MMO combat flight sims for decades. They’ve had MMO combat flight sims since 1990s computer technology because your computer is *not* doing the flight physics calculations for the dozens of other planes in the fight. Your CPU only has to calculate those things for you. It’s only your position, direction, speed derived from these calculations that are sent to other computers for them to deal with. And when your cannon shell impacts the wing of another plane, all that’s done is the message about the velocity, type, target area of the shell impact is relayed to his computer, which then calculates how many pieces fall off his airplane…if his wing falls off the message will again be related and you’ll get a visual off it being off. So to sum up massive computer power isn’t required in these games because your computer only has to calculate physics for your own plane. Or tank, works the same way in that kind of MMO combat game. Can BeamNG multiplayer adopt a similar system to avoid being such a computer load?

[@tomsterbg8130]

It's amazing that this project that's been in the works for over a decade has been the best of its kind and is now so far that it almost feels like the intended idea for the game is coming together! I feel like they're making a roleplay simulator which is why it's so realistic. There's a few issues I've had with 0.25, but it's just nit picking. For the interested I played the first campaign and somewhere around stage 07 where you have the ETK, a small jump and hitting a wall of concrete blocks mid air one of the blocks had a stretched mesh like the tire glitches in the old days. Also for hypermilling at the gas station I made myself a custom Pessima and a very unrealistic cheese to gain distance is to just go slow and let the starter propel your car at the highest gear. That's why I'd love to see a rework on how internal damage such as gearbox, starter and clutch works. I had used 80% fuel by the 20th minute and had no more patience so I picked up the pace and since I removed the radiator for less weight as you don't need it while hypermilling it got really hot and you could feel the struggles it gave the car which is something I absolutely love. Also you can hear the reverse gear even if the engine is off and the clutch is at 100%!
