Riding pets as mounts

[SeraphMassacre]

So when the Garu are equipped with a bag it looks like there is a saddle. Is rideable pets going to be a feature?

I want a rideable beakthing though.. Elder ones run at 58mph. + are very strong... It's win-win really.. Though they do get stuck on things a bit... Still could run down all the salvers in the desert with gutter cav...

Rideable pet not sure I would use it. It would distract from the feel of the game.

I feel its kinda OP so it needs a riding skill set in place to actually make it an effective feature but that seems likely to be a free/paid DLC case. I dont mind the latter though

I think it is unnecessary. My opinion mind you, I don't think riding always adds an awful lot to games. Something like Mount and Blade or Red Dead Redemption certainly requires it, but I don't feel it would add anything huge to the world of Kenshi.

I think it should be in game because it just makes sense, and the argument that it doesn't "fit in the game" is just ill-conceived imo. Not everyone in Kenshi can ninja-run at 45 mph. There are lots of slow, vulnerable npcs out there. Lots of fat and lazy ones too like the nobility. And new
recruits, well, it'd be nice to give them a garru to keep up with my stronger, faster characters.

It would have its uses. For some characters it might not be needed but I've definitely been in situations where I've wanted a ridable garru or bull, either to place an injured or new recruit, a character in a recovery coma, or a captured npc upon one so my characters can fight unencumbered.

i dream to see some kind of Machinery Mounts, since there are robots and forgotten ancient technology. Would be aweseome to find and repair some kind of Motorbike with a cart and repair it to use as a Mount. Or a slow tracked vehicles to carry a squad. atleast a tracked or wheeled carriege to attach to Dogs/Garrus.

Rideable mounts have many uses other than to travel faster. Like what Irreverentnoise said and the devs did also had concept art for the frontier prison pet which would be cool.
