Bicycle is in desperate need of a serious buff

[Amins]

Slower than running, uses more stamina, can barely jump over a curb. What is the point? Sure, it can hold a few extra items and negates encumbrance, but the downsides don't really make it worthwhile. I feel like it should at least have the speed and stamina cost/regen of being under the influence of Mega Crush. And how cool would it be to do cool BMX tricks on it?

Does puting on a college jacket gives me 10 inventory slot?

The bikes not great, but you can't leave out the no encumbrance bit. Nice to hoover up a POI and waddle out to your bike with 14 encumbrance and just ngaf.

Hey gamers, did you know that Mega Crush has zero effect on bicycle speed and stamina recovery? Did you know all you need to do is put on a college jacket to render the bicycle obsolete? The game can't even follow its own rules. Base speed, at best, is equivalent in speed to running, But with the insane stamina consumption, it makes it a net disadvantage. And then they force us to use this trash vehicle in the first week because we can't get lucky enough with RNG. The fact that you can't even jump over half a block with a bicycle makes running far superior.

I can't believe there are this many people genuinely happy with the game being worse. People arguing that giving even a minor improvement to this thing will make it a "gasless motorcycle" are absolutely insane. All I ask is that it's better than running!

- It is absolutely, factually better than running;
- you dont get megacrush for every run back you do to your base after questing with 18 points of overweight, mega crush is uncommon to rare;
- you're not supposed to jump blocks with a bicycle unless they implement BMX acrobatic moves;
-the beginning of the game is supposed to be kind of a miserable situation to the survivor and a grind, and I agree that the new system is absolutely broken in some points and need adjusting.

So yeah, to me it's night and day, always a relief to get the bicycle, it makes it all so much faster and smooth. I have many beefs with the current iteration of the game but that's definitely not one. I invite you to think twice about it all and you will probably see that the bicy is such an obvious upgrade to walking.
