Since you handed over the ru-accounts to the FSB, I’m writing here, in the English-language section.
So, you’re still trying to sell premium motorcycle squads. Are they selling well? I can suggest a simple way to improve their sales and make motorcycles from the tech tree popular.
To do this, you need to use the simple and inexpensive “Enter battle without vehicles” button. Just like with the truck and APC squads. And this will immediately increase the popularity of motorcyclists, as it will turn them into a weak but versatile unit that will finally be convenient to use at all times, and not just for the role of “sneaking into the rear and setting up a radio station.”
i don’t… really see how making them dismout would really make motorcycles great again.
and that’s coming from the most avid biker user.
( bikes are love, bikes are life )
but i think jeeps and armored light vehicles should have made them great to begin with.
with that being said, if snipers at their basic can run around with a squad of 3 soldiers, and even the 4 man apc can spawn without their vehicle, sure, i don’t see a problem with bikers being able to do the same.
That’s not the problem. The problem is to give motorcyclists a head start, make them popular — then can continue to develop them further up the tech tree, gradually introducing passenger cars and then light armored vehicles.
Now, their popularity is largely limited by the fact that they spawn at a transport spawn point without alternatives. This is a psychological barrier (I can speak from personal experience). Many would rather forgo a motorcycle squad simply because they have to travel to the combat zone first, rather than spawn at a radio station someone has erected. This is pure psychology. But it’s precisely this that matters in such ephemeral matters as the “popularity” of something.
If you want to make bikes great…as they never were…they need to make the ride handling WAY better. It’s sad how the bikes handle because they could be great, now they hinder teams because it’s a 3 man team who has a hard time getting around the battlefield on the bike. Spawning them without thei motorcycle doesn’t help the team unless it is to respawn on an already parked motorcycle like APC’s.
I think what we need is to significantly enhance the vehicles’ passing ability in the game, along with adding armored protection for motorcycle riders. The main issue right now is that the terrain is too complex, making motorcycles hard to control and prone to flipping over. They often end up just being a means of transportation.
