Vehicles: Common bicycles / Capture able Trains

Recommended Posts

To have an Vehicle was the most important goal in day z mod because fast traveling on a huge map is important . I think day z is an game you play with friends, an clan , or an group and it would be funny to conquer an driveable train with them And defend it against other player . And its realistic that bicycles are common so they should be easy to find . I am sorry for my bad english skills

Bikes will be added.

 

I've never heard if trains will be added or not. I don't think they'll be added as they need huge amounts of coal or electricity to run.

If there was a mechanic for trains to work that would bring lots a insanely fun times.

Grabbing a train with your mates and defending it whilst a couple people jump off to loot cities would be awsome.

I don't know about having the trains, as they would be very difficult to upkeep and not to mention there could be debris along the tracks rendering them useless.

 

Bicycles are almost certain, though.

The Locomotives in Chenarus are neither steam nor electric, they are Diesel powered.  While refiling one of them would still be a challenge with a friggen 20L jerry can, realistically there SHOULD be at least one refueling/sanding station where if power were restored (IE hooking up a car battery or generator to the pump) (or the possibility of hand powered pumps, which considering it's Chenarus is a good possibility)

 

I'll admit it's unlikely but I would like to see locos as well in DayZ (providing they keep to the level of realism I expect from them, since they do have a lot of minor details most game/map makers don't know about when they add trains to a game...I cringe when I go in the dock areas of San Andreas and see European Wagons mixed with North American Rolling Stock, not to mention what seams to be active lines with no way to access them from the main line...I digress or this is gonna turn into a two page post...)

bikes will be added, I'll be spewing if they're common. 

 

realistic or not, it'd just shit up the dynamics of the game.

I think trains won't work as they need quite a lot of infrastructure.

 

It's one thing to fix a broken car, but a whole other to fix a broken train. And not only the trains itself, what about the rails... they need constant care or they will break and there will be trees over them.

 

Even though it might be a fun feature, Realism crys "Noooooooooooooooooooo!"...
