Dirt bike mileage per gallon is a complete joke, among other things now too.

[BigV419]

4 strokes get 80-120 MPG and 2 stokes get 30-50 MPG IRL, your bikes in game get like 10 miles to the gallon if your lucky. you can drive the bike now and literally watch the gas as it gets sucked out before your eyes. why its the mileage so low on bikes in this game, nothing but complete gas guzzlers now??? and now your forced to pay for gas on top of it all, WTF? wow, and there is no storage on the bikes so i'm also forced to carry a gas can taking up all my inventory space now in order not to be stranded somewhere left on foot, cool story bro? bikes are broken AF still, this also doesn't account for the fact you guys make the bike twice as much at the traders now too, go from $18,000 to $30,000. like wtf is going on?

[fatesdeath]

the game is heading ina more "survival" direction and less run and gun, find everything i need and everyone having car.. they are luxury and not ment to be easy to own and operate... something alot of people are gona need to accept

[Jolie Rouge]

Aside from that there's always the occasional fuel can to find.

Regardless on the survival aspect. It's odd the motor bikes guzzle gasoline so quickly compared to vehicles. The motor bike is loud and has no inventory space. Would have made more sense to make the cars use more fuel than the motor bikes.

dirtbike consumes more than the cars.40% more.Measured.if you add the small tank to this then you must stop to every gas station you meet.

[Anri]

I know they plan on adding more to vehicle modularity. Perhaps they'll allow upgraded gasoline tanks or better gas mileage in the future.

This comment has nothing to do with OP's issue. He's talking about a legitimate issue that devs have stated they are going to fix. Stop defending bugs please.

Yes, the mileage issue will be fixed. I wasn't given an ETA, but they are aware of the problem. I'm not sure why people are coming in here and defending an obvious bug, but hey, some people are pretty sensitive when you critic the game in any meaningful way.

I'm not sure how anyone can think that the current mileage on boats, bikes, and cars are normal. As it stands boats can't make it to any refueling station, even with the assistance of a large gas can. Dirt Bikes are about the same, and cars can make it from station to station, but in what reality does that make sense? People love to chime "but ma realism", during these changes, but fail to see whats wrong with the change.

Fates does have a point though, The devs are slowing players down by force, The next updates going to anger most of the run and gun crowd and most of the pvp streamers. Buggy or not, Take it slow relax and just enjoy the game.

On topic though, I've yet to even find a dirt bike so I have no idea how bad they are. How the hell do you doods find cars so quickly? I can play for a full 8 hours RL time and not find a single car.

How is it that you are measuring gallons exactly?

While his point isn't wrong, this thread had nothing to do with the point. I'm not even sure why he said it. This is a thread about dirt bikes draining fuel too quickly. I don't see how that equates to cars being a luxury, finding everything too quickly, and run and gunning. Its a bug that server admins can't fix, and devs have acknowledged it (thankfully).

As for dirt bike spawns, if your server hasn't deleted their sever settings, they won't spawn in the world. So if your SP or MP, you have to make a back up of your server settings, delete the original, allow the server to create an updated one, and change the settings back to your liking.

Stay away from boats on singleplayer anyway. "FuelDrainFromEngineMultiplier=0.5" Only get 2 sectors if your lucky...

what the ♥♥♥♥ is a gallon?

That shouldn't be a thing, and it's not like it was always like this either. In a boat I could go form A0 to B4 with no issues. Now, you can't get through half a sector.

I would have liked to see saddle bags as a modular option or craftable with carjack, repair kit and two hiking packs. The fuel consumption might be edited, everything is not yet balanced, but as said above, vehicles are more of a luxury item now. Which is how it should be. In past I had way more vehicles than I ever needed. and all you had to do was push start one. Now they actually need parts, like in Day Z. A survival game

I can assume dirt bikes may have planned to be more modular, but the constant cries of players about vehicles kinda forced them to push an extra vehicle out early, and dirt bike with just modular wheels only would have been the fastest to do probably.

Just a theory but the screams about vehicles being taken away was probably exhausting to read over and over.

Gosh this game is becoming more and more a chore to play.
