All bike squads should come with engineer at start or be able to use as mobile spawn
Its entire squad upgrade tree takes too much XP to be finished, this should be reduced dramatically, since this squad usually doesnt live very long to make serious impact or earrn some significant XP
Bike itself could also be used as ammo box and medkit box as well
Imo rider class as whole is useless and makes no sense, why would i want to XP rider soldier when game gives me chance to remove him and substitute him for MG soldier or AT gunner in the end ?
Maybe if Rider has +35 vitality initially, then it would be more interesting
Upgrades for bike itself is now useless as well, maybe it will be of use once something gets done about squad as whole, this would help new players getting ability of mobile spawn a bit earlier and get them some more XP.
You know I suggested a while back that Motorcycles should carry Med supplies as well. Very simple and easy. Sometimes I don’t even know if the devs are listening or they just work at a snail’s pace.
That’s why we end having to make suggestions over and over again
That is true but then i think of infantry perspective shooting bikers becomes bullet sponge… as even recently i was surprised after shooting someone who actually used flame 2 + vitality how much it took to kill.
yep since rider is most exposed, nobody would give AF about that one guy in 3 men squad that usually dies first has more vitality, besides rider has assaulter capabilities, it has potential yet devs dont really care, rider would be different if more vehicles would be added to squad with more squad members,
regarding bikes, especially on tunisia maps where bikes were introduced there are suitable and fun places for bikes, where you can hide make your bike a designated MG Nest, therefore assaulter and Gunner are unnecessary in this squad for now, +35 vitality perk is imo one of the last solutions to make this squad appealing, bikes were criticized ever since their introduction, im surprised nothing has changed, they just took away option to have smg and rifles and bacpack from premium bikers lol
i see you would like to include more vehicles to this squad, i like that, there are so many vehicles useful that could be added though i wonder if it wouldnt be better merging rider and driver classes together then
