PoliteRaider Posted April 1, 2016 Share Posted April 1, 2016 My concern about the existing motorcycle mesh in game is that it looks a little too small and spindly for power armour. Rideable motorbikes might need a new model that looks like it can handle the weight. Plus I'm not sure there's a good animation for the character that looks like they're sitting on a motorcycle. Probably the best sort of bet would be some sort of large low-rider style motorbike. That'd probably be easier to match with power armour and animations.

Just wanted to put that out there. http://2000ad.files.wordpress.com/2011/08/dredd-bike-jdh.jpg Edited April 1, 2016 by radiumskull Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bben46 Posted April 1, 2016 Share Posted April 1, 2016 New Vegas would have been a natural for horses. And many people tried without much success. Some were professional programmers. We did have one proof of concept that sort of worked, but it never quite made it as a mod. As far as a back story, it would be easy to come up with a reason we have horses. Again, the same basic engine as Skyrim & Oblivion, but Beth has ruled out horses in the Fallout world. Just because it is the same base engine, that doesn't mean the parts are in it to have working horses. The Gambryo is a modular game engine, and some parts are included and other parts not included for various games. Unfortunately, the parts needed for horses are just not included in the Fallout 4 version of the engine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fenryr3001 Posted April 1, 2016 Share Posted April 1, 2016 The reason no horses are included is because all horses died in the lore. Motorcycles'd be awesome though,especially with the new crafting system.Regarding power armour,I think it doesn't really fit for someone in clunky PA to sit on a motorcycle.I doubt you could use it correctly in PA.Which brings me to a question that bothered me in Fallout 2 : Why does your character know how to drive?!

slash0mega Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 if you can focus the camera on a new entity and force controls to it, and hide the player in a new cell, you could have a atv that is a large actor that uses wheels similar to sentry legs on robots.

EmissaryOfWind Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 The power armor is an actor though, no need for a new cell, just base your vehicle on power armor and put the player inside the vehicle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MLeonhardt Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 That'd probably be easier to match with power armour and animations. Why on earth would you think you could ride a motorcycle while in power armor? "Yes I want to drive a car while inside another car"You get mobility with the motorbike, or defense with the power armor. Can't use both at the same time. Alternatively, I'd be entirely 100% for Power Armor that transforms into a motorcycle a la Mospeadahttp://members.optusnet.com.au/~cyc01/images/f-type-armor-mode.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fenryr3001 Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 I don't think you could even drive in Power Armour.It's way too big and bulky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gilibran Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 Why use a motorcycle when you can have a jetpack on your power armor? I would love to see a motorcycle or flyable vertibird though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
