New EUC Vehicle Can't turn properly and needs to be in 3rd person view
Unusable in Forest areas, which the majority of the game is of. Very difficult to turn and often it trees and get stuck and fall over. Can fall on trenches and small waterways and then is stuck. Since it cannot be stored in inventory, if it falls in water it is lost for good.
In 1st person view this vehicle is extremely difficult to drive. Hope a 3rd person view is provided.

The jump is also not so good and does not work properly each time you press space

Only useful thing is the headlights which for some reason is many times brighter than the flashlight, and holding the EUC actually replaces the flashlight and all other lights at night...

It gave me motion sickness, first time I ever experienced that in a game. It´s a welcome addition and probably best used if you plan to do a beach tour, should be a fast journey.

But yes, very difficult to use in forests and it gets lost easily when you stumble upon something and get thrown of. I did get to my destination in the forest far quicker but it wasn´t a very pleasant experience, perhaps it´s not supposed to be.

Just a hint though, you can´t look at your map while driving, you actually have to navigate your surroundings which I did mostly successful. I only looked at the map while standing still to get my bearings, otherwise you really need to focus on trees and obstacles ahead of you, it becomes a mini game in itself.

It needs a slower speed for the pathways. It is a blast on the beach going full tilt.

Yes full motion sickness, and no speed control and also the jump is bugged

If you loose it in water you can can swim into it to push at back to the land as it floats. I managed to launch myself into one of the large lakes to see what would happen, and was surprised to see that it floats and can be moved by swimming into it.

I also didn't have too many issues with controlling it while driving through the forest.
But maybe it could be slower in general and then when you press Shift (Or whatever your sprint key may be) then it goes full speed.

Skill issue

It really isn't very efficient at this point because you spend more time falling off, getting stuck and losing it than you do travelling. I got it but just left it at my base until they get it sorted. I'll stick to running - at least I can control that. Also, it's pretty small so should fit in our backpack instead of being dropped.

Maybe then just throttle your gas?

+1 for 3rd person on the other hand

I just use a controller to drive it. Works awesome. Seemed obvious. "Blah Blah they should optimise it for keyboard players!" yeah except that KB + M driving is terrible in most racing/driving games. People need to stop whining. No wonder they have zero communication.

Pointing out issues isn't whining.

It's not skill issue. You can't control the turning, its not smooth and there is no option for it. and in 1st person view the screen is too small too see where you are going
