stinkenheim 249 Posted August 9, 2014 Terror1, you really don't need vehicles at the moment. It doesn't take very long to get around the map on foot.I'm hoping they don't put helicopters and such in. Off topic I'm good with bikes, motorcycles, cars and some trucks but don't want anything else if I'm honest. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm not even happy with cars and trucks, as for is hard to imagine how it will possible to maintain them in an Apocalyptic world... Horses, push bikes, bikes, things like that will be more logical.

GunnyITA 107 Posted August 9, 2014 Will be the nicest troll if after months we are waiting for them, they gonna add vehicles, but ruined and non functioning like others already existing in game....and then: "Yes, we added new vehicles"! xD Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dayz need vehicles.Gathering parts to fix them will be new mission,and we really need something to do beside gearing. Helicopters, planes and armoured vehicles are too much in my opinion, but civilian cars and some army trucks are ok. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Helix2000 128 Posted August 9, 2014 IDK about cars, and i can not claim to have the slightest idea how hard it would be to work them in, but i think that horses would be an amazing feature to the game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HIHBGaming 14 Posted August 9, 2014 (edited) Soon™. Well not really, but I hear bicycles are on their way. Hicks stated in one of his recent streams that the first vehicle will NOT be a bicycle. Maybe an ATV or Scooter perhaps? Regardless of what it is, vehicles will not be instant transport across the map as some think they'll be.

Regardless of what it is, vehicles will not be instant transport across the map as some think they'll be. I agree... The speed increase from mod -> standalone is noticeable when you swap back and forth. I'd say it's around 1.5x faster to travel in SA than in the mod (on foot).. When vehicles are in, hopefully the run speed gets nerfed a bit. Also, the mod had stuff blocking roads... there's none of that in SA currently, but I'm assuming once vehicles get added back in they will throw the junk back on the roads to make transport more difficult. I think Heli's (if they will be in) are still a ways off. Also, vehicles, while fast, attract attention and cost a lot of time/resources to procure, and only a few groups per server may even have access to them.. Good luck driving from Balota to NWAF without having your tires shot out on a full server. Even better luck procuring a vehicle, keeping it in running condition, and hiding it for more than 24 hours on a relatively populated server.

I hope not! It was always pretty immersion ruining for me ... who the hell build all those barricades when the zombies showed up? Were the zombies driving Volvos? Also, I still kinda carry a grudge against road blocks. Every since the ghastly end to my first bike ride in the mod ... I'd love player-build road blocks though. You drive around and come upon a barricade - could be an ambush, could be something from days ago. You might wanna just drive past it at the side of the road, take a different route or send a few guys in on foot to check it out. Could be really cool. Edit: n00bglish.

Cpanther 221 Posted August 9, 2014 Unicycle. Or... space shuttle?Or roller skates ? ... that will be so funny. :lol: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HIHBGaming 14 Posted August 9, 2014 Unicycle. Or... space shuttle? I'm just thinking it will be something that is easy to implement, uses fuel, needs parts and is something they can test those features with. A bicycle won't do that, nor a unicycle. A space shuttle could be end game material, when they allow space stations and colonizing other Zed infested planets. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The only problem I had with barricades/road blocks was when they would randomly appear right under you right after you slammed into them, blowing out your front 2 tires and damaging your engine...

gibonez 3633 Posted August 9, 2014 Some of you will be so disappointed when cars are added, you will find they add very little to the game unless other elements like stamina and weight get fleshed out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A space shuttle could be end game material, when they allow space stations and colonizing other Zed infested planets. a motorbike would fit the bill pretty well. Perhaps a quad, so that they don't have to worry so much about falling-off physics. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
