Bus engine noises are way worse than the torque issue right now. Can barely have a convo while driving. I feel kinda proud knocking that car off the guardrail things with the bus...surprised I was able to hit it and not kill Emu in the process xD

Our Sedan was a different beast. We put all pristine wheels on it. It drove PERFECTLY. No pulling left or right, 1st gear actually worked as you would expect, even on inclines! The car had no doors but drove like a cadillac . It is prone to spinning out if you get greedy with the speed around corners.

As far as the truck and bus are concerned, all big trucks build up this magical thing called inertia, most truck drivers who have sense will roll toward a stop light etc instead of coming to a complete halt. It keeps momentum so there is less shifting, and they don't have to work the truck as hard to achieve desired speed. That being said, why are you stopping on hills in a big ol' bus? They are slow to attain speed on flat ground. Inland driving involves LOTS of hills, so you need to NEVER totally slow down for curves/turns to be able to accelerate at a reasonable rate. It takes curves at full speed extremely well, I drove ours for about 2 hrs last night and it works great. Never once spun out, even at top speed. Only downside i see for the bus is that you are a big target. Its very tough though. When players are able to shoot from it it will be fairly formidable assault vehicle. Our bus got sprayed outside of Electro coming and going last night and chugged right through the gunfire coming from the hills between Kamy and Electro. My rule for bus driving: Drive balls out until you reach destination. As long as you don't hit a immovable object you will be fine.

Check mil tents found 2 in 1 run @NWAF

Fixed up a bus with Emu, and also a sedan. Took both for a drive down the coast to Electro, got shot at by asshat children, Emu was killed but I managed to pick up two riders and head to Berenzino to grab up Emu. Drove the bus ALL through the center of map, made it up hills just fine. Bus can actually cruise if you give it a little room to stretch. My advice is to use -newui.... If your tires get borked then just drag them to vehicle inv then drag back into appropriate spots. Basically a brand new vehicle at that point. The gears can also get stuck between gears sort of..... you can sit and down shift in perpetuity unless you come to a dead stop and slowly downshift to desired gear. Neutral has its own idle sound that is different than normal. I apologize if I kill anyone here that is on experimental, but if you don't use your words within 5 secs of me making contact I'm gonna shoot you. It would be nice if the token music guy on every server would play some metal, and not the jurassic park soundtrack. (John Williams is a badass, I just want to hear something with some balls)

Bus we tried to fix up @ 3 Valleys seems to be glitched, 2 sets of tires cannot be removed, and a double tire straight up disappeared off the bus. A bit frustrating after running for 20 mins blind as a bat because of the double tire I was carrying .

rubber-banding is badness

Ran around with Emuthreat some last night, and also a random named Pook. We fixed up a sedan, rode all over the map. I got hit with mad desync.... my screen had me about a km away from the guys standing in the road.... while they saw me still in the car moving my head etc. I had to log out and back in to fix it and return me to where I was supposed to be. Also kinda weird playing 1pp with my 3pp toon. Other than the weird desync everything seemed to work normally, but I think cars need a better way to determine whether or not they are usable. First car we fixed up would not drive, just idle. So we went to the next car and things worked, even though the new car we found looked crunchier than the first. We've been using Riddlers TS (ts.welcometothejungledayz) to chat, would be nice to see some of you peeps there.

My point

Anyone here play any Arma? I have. And the desync in vehicles has yet to be truly fixed, even in arma3. The dev team has some big hurdles to jump. I really hope they can land on their feet this time.

Go to Cherno and you will see

Actually I had no clue I've been posting on the EXP forums

TONS of ppl seem to be having issues with BE, all I've seen is red BE dialogue kicking players on login.
-
If I remember right the devs boosted runspeed because of lack of vehicles. So they may have nerfed it a bit since vehicles are a thing now. Memory is a bit hazy though.
-
Riding with Emuthreat last night, we noticed the sedan we we're in had ruined battery,spark plug and light. Everything worked normal and car drove reasonably well.

.308 is spawning but very rare, so are amphibia mags, also very rare. I think they tweaked mil spawns, tents and barracks are no longer spawning infinite amounts of items. Ran around a 1pp server with Emuthreat last night, fairly uneventful as those servers are usually low pop. Tires will not fit inside any backpacks as far as I can tell.

This so much right now

You're not looking hard enough. Big cities is where they like to kick it.

Squeaker was talking shit to me around Pusta, chasing me with an axe. Lots of foul language, which is fine. Funny thing was i think his mom overhead the garbage coming out of his mouth. Next thing I hear is "mom stop it, STOP IT!!" Suddenly he stops chasing me and in mid sentence starts the logout animation. So I killed him to add to the humiliation. Finding lots of gas cans now.

I've decided to stay away from any hills while in vehicles, offroad handles horribly and the sedan will slide at the smallest hint of decline.
-
They disabled it outside map borders in experimental.
-
I had 3 pristine tires and 1 worn tire for the offroad, battery and plugs were pristine and worn. Cranked up, shifting was different but doable, but pulled hard to the left no matter what I tried. Probably try a sedan next, though a little discouraged. Also I can't find a once numerous item..... a wrench xD BTW i went for the offroad first because it has unlimited fuel right now. Not sure if sedan or vs3 are this way, but it might explain the lack of fuel cans.
-
Fixed up an off road. Could not get it to drive straight, no matter if i rotated every tire or not.
-
Time flows as the devs see fit right now. Saying that it's NOT supposed to be that way is kinda silly. Unless you are a dev and get to make decisions.

Few hours of gaming and I only have some .308 ammo. Good times :)
