The BIKE thread

[Irish. 4886]

So DayZ is getting bikes first.. this is a fact. We all know how amazing bikes can be, so lets discuss the types of bikes, mechanics of bikes and all the things that go along with it.

 

I think bikes should get flat tires easily when offroad. I think they should be more resilient than in the mod, they were fairly fragile in the mod imo. Most bikes IRL would toss you in a bad crash and be rideable afterword.. so I think things like broken wheels should work differently. We should have chains that fall of, if you are riding the bike rough and its say a 10-speed.. your downhilling from Devils Castle through the forest.. chain falls off, no power. Brakes could go bad over time, and degrade slowly.. faster when braking hard/downhill/etc..

 

There should be variations that fit roles, like road bikes, Mtn. Bikes, Flower Basket Womens bike, etc.. 

 

What do you think? What ideas do you have for bikes? Which ones would you like to see added in, how should they work, etc.? Discuss.

 

Here is my favorite idea for a bike to add in.

 

 

You can pack it up and carry it with you. Fits in cars, or takes up entire large pack if empty. :)

Terrible idea for a bike personally (the image). I think you are over thinking it a little when it comes to bikes and how they should operate, they should be much simpler than that. As for damage, in the mod the only way you could bust the tires was to repeatedly slam it against a rock/building/tree, they were quiet strong tbh.

What? Nah, Im only thinking how Dean is. He wants authenticity. So Im guessing with the other vehicles being a pain to operate and maintain he will do the same for bikes.

 

And as for the mod: My bikes tires would crumble if I hit a knee high wooden picket fence at 10kmh, one time. 

 

I dont know what super bikes you were finding man.. ;)

It will be a old russian bike full of rust i can guarantee it

But if you rode them into the sea they self-destructed and killed you

Because these thread somehow cause you grief, your absolute inability to ignore it is driving you insane and everyone keeps messaging you asking to look inside it.

 

You have an option, for future reference; ignore it. No one is forcing you to read this post or even enter the thread. That's your decision and no one elses.

Yeah. Very fun having the entire page spammed by troll threads like all the "Please, say NO to..."

[The-MCV- 149]

I don't see the reason to have more than a simple mountain bike. Others just don't fit in the theme, in my opinion.

Are we looking at the wrong page or are you exaggerating just a little bit?

[MetapoliC 263]

Another useless thread BUT! Thanks! you made me laugh, that bicycle looks like no game would ever have such.

 

Irish you are like a spammer for me(rly don't want to call you an attention bitch). I see multiple threads from you everyday and most of them are useless just like this one.

Yet, you did. You need to watch yourself. You haven't really been adding much constructive yourself. You have been contributing more with your hate than anything else.

 

We also already have a few topics about bicycles, the most recent one would be this:

I usually would have merged, but some people really wanted to derail this thread already.

 

Please do contribute in a nice fashion and with manners.
