red oct 2 Posted July 1, 2002 since i have to wait another day and a half for it how about some info. if you shoot a guy when he is driving the motorcycle, will he fall off? or if you are driving it, and take a sharp turn going full throttle, will you wipe out and skid across the ground? and most importantly how high can it fly off the ground if you floor it off a incline or a ramp?

y0ungb0b 0 Posted July 1, 2002 Havent gone that mad on it yet. Too busy with the campaign. I do know you cant pull wheelies on it  The only thing i was annoyed with is that the bike sometimes falls over into scenery. When you get back on youre upside down and cant move. The thing needs a stand! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And yes, that's what happens when you're on drugs and try to drive a bike... I used the bike to escape from my office in the first mission - just raced out of town... very nice! But you have to be very carefull in rough terrain - I once toppled because of this. While the 'imperfect wheely' didn't hurt me (too slow I assume) the bike was rubbish and I had to walk for miles. Also the bike might be fast on roads, but as soon as the slope starts to rise and you're offroad, you might be faster walking - if it makes it uphill at all.

It does sometimes fall over but I find that if you get on it and accelerate it bumps itself back up. In answer to your question, I'm not sure but I think I got shot once and the he just slumps over the handle bars. I'll check it out. No you can't skid on it - you fall off and die horribly but you can get some really low turns. Finally yes, it is possible to jump off "ramps" (big hills) and land properly but the bike is a bit too weak and if you land wrongly its done for. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KaRRiLLioN 0 Posted July 1, 2002 What did you use for a ramp? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Heinrich 0 Posted July 1, 2002 I use a feature on a map I am making in Wrpedit for a ramp. If you get shot on the bike, you fly off and the bike skids along the floor on its side. Very realistic. Also, if you come to a stop too quickly you go over the handle bars and meet your maker. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Paladin 1 Posted July 1, 2002 I just love seeing how many ways I can wipe out on that thing. I used to like driving jeeps off that big cliff in North-Western Malden. I love how realistic the motorcycle is. BIS did a great job on it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shabadu 0 Posted July 2, 2002 The bike is so puny I bumped into a police jeep, and when I say bumped I mean just barely clipped it as I went by, and the damn thing went all lame on me. After getting really slow it finally conked out a half mile down the road. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vinsen 0 Posted July 2, 2002 I got run over by a bus. I was on my way to work and the bus had stopped by the bridge. As I went to make my way around it it clipped it gently with the handlebars and next thing "YOU ARE DEAD" and there was me and the bike under the bus. Oh those people on the bus must have needed trauma care there was blood everywhere. I'd have loved to post a screenie but I forgot to take one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
