OK, I know there are already a few Motorcycles out there for BeamNG, but I wondered if BeamNG could have some that come with the game as stock, for doing even more dangerous and silly things in the game. Maybe Quad-bikes or things like that too? And maybe in time add some dirtbike maps or add a section to an existing map? I have put a poll here out of interest to see how many people are interested in this I am not making any, just putting an idea across as a maybe. Just putting that idea out there Please don't hate on me, it's just an idea.
I think it would be cool if BeamNG could expand their game and focus on motorcycles, tanks, boats, airplanes, and all kinds of vehicles, not just automobiles.
nice idea - but since the devs are strictly against putting anything human-like into the game i dont think it will ever happen. a motorcycle doesnt work without a rider.
@Darren9 made a motorcycle mod and it works without a human riding on it, so it is possible. https://beamng.com/resources/custom-sport-bike.1538/
The problem with having a motorcycle in Beam is that it wouldn't be particularly fun to ride without a rider on top of it, and who knows how much coding and time would be necessary to allow that to happen? Also, since Beam will never, ever, ever have dummies and/or in-car drivers from standard, it would be pointless to make a vehicle type that would disappoint a lot of people due to a lack of a rider. While I can see why people would want motorcycles in Beam, I don't think it's happening, at least from the devs.
thats not the same thing. the rider is practically part of the machine in case of a motorcycle. he controls the bike not only by traditional steering but also by leaning left and right / backwards and forward. a car works perfectly fine without a driver (if you find a way to control it remotely) - a motorcycle doesnt.
Ya know... they could always do what Burnout Paradise did when they added motorcycles... when the rider falls off, he just vanishes into thin air... wala, problem solved.
1- vehicle suggestions 2- a mod bike has already been worked on 3- a bike without a human like ragdoll figure would look weird and not work at all 4- even the bike mod only works so-so.
Please stop saying everything should go into vehicle suggestions, you're just going to get everyone aggravated.
both machines ultimately need drivers to work, but as this game is for cars, I guess from other comments it would be impossible at this stage to make them work.
However a bike's driver is part of the bike overall look. And beamng isn't gonna be adding humanoid ragdolls.
