It would be quite cool on commando-style maps to have civillian bikes lying around to escape on! :naughty:
Check out my Volkssturm post, they had panzerfaust bikes!!!
I actually think it's a decent idea, and it wouldn't be hard to implement, either (all paratroopers can deploy a bicycle).
And Finnish infantry should carry skis with them. But that's for another thread.
Such vehicles would be lots of fun if the map would be designed well though they could also destroy it (new hype: back flag capping by sending a dozen individual people behind enemy lines). It wouldn't harm to see them though. Bikes (bicycles and motorbikes) for the win!

Skis, that is a really good Idea. I would like to see that. It would be like the biathlon.
I dont really know much about coding for games or modding but one idea could be to make the bike was deployable (like a mortar) then you hop on and control it like a vehicle. If you get shot off of it then maybe it shows up on the ground as a pick up kit. It may require some difficult animations though.
I really hope to see motarbikes in FH2, mainly this one.
and in FH2 the passenger would be able to shoot their weapon from that little passenger seat. Just like the Germans in the Indiana Jones movies:D
This would be a great idea and very true I think there were even some foldable motor bikes. Much like the Traktor it could not show on minimap, be quick and silent. right clicking gives you a bell sound!!!

Stop stealing my ideas! I made that suggestion two and a half years ago! My very first post. :D

Most FH maps, IMHO, were designed with "linear" combat in mind--this is what starts all the discussions about "back flag capping smacktards" vs. "no it's not it's good tactics you're just not defending you lamer". I think most mappers didn't consciously consider the probability that combat would often be flowing all over the place.
That said, both push- and motorbikes would be great fun if, as you say, the map is designed well enough.
Oh for the BF:V in-vehicle music radios.... I can just imagine a squadron of bikes coming over a hill towards a flag blaring out Ride of the Valkyries... Seriously though, I think they would work for commando-style objective maps. Civillian pedal bikes could be lying around while the defenders could get motorbike/sidecar combos for patrolling roads etc.
hey yeah would the devs put in a ww2 era soundtrak for when you jump in a car or tank pleasssse!!!!!
