modular vehicles, what do we want?

[fishing ranger]

First this is not a question of do we want them or not so please dont answer with we want 0.7 cars back or any of that, we all have our opinion for and against the new cars.

What i want to know is what people want want from the modular vehicles ??

I would like to see the ability to place barrels and chest on the vehicles for extra storage,
Roof racks/roof baskets
i like the need to find parts for em, except the engine (maybe have engines spawn in garages or farms on a hoist)
the ability to hang bags in or on vehicles
the ability to have jerry can holders to place our fuel cans
more variations on the doors and that, new colours maybe actual armour
spikes and barb wire attachments for front of cars for a bit of road rage fun
weapons holders/racks

So what features would you all like to see added?
who knows maybe devs might read and add some one day

The ability to use a pickup truck to ram through tier 1-3 walls. Very rare parts required to find and mount. Lets have a reason for the vehicle sized punji stick fortifications! They would be the deterrent against this method!

+1 to OP's ideas

My additions:

- Removal of seats gives extra load space/weight limit
- When we see pickups and bikes back the ability to load a bike or motorbike in the tray with loss of seat 5 & 6 space.
- Car maintenance, parts that wear and need fixing/replacement with higher engineering or at mechanic, radiator that needs fluid, alternator that as it wears charges slower and eventually stops, engines that need a tune or service to keep peak power performance.

I see car maintenance as a good survival mechanic, sure you can find it, but can you keep it running.

This idea is ok, because all the traders seem to be unreachable if solo trying to push the car. They are all generally somewhere where a hill needs to be passed. Perhaps a character build with 5 strength can to it. But at 3.5 you can't.

I would Like the ability to tow an engineless car with a working car using rope. This should be hard and no control of second car unless another player is in it steering. The rope could also degrade/ take damage quickly depending on its type.

Maybe this is a bad idea as it would mean larger squads hoarding cars will even take the non working ones, especially if engines spawn on hoists as you suggest.

My motive would only be towing them to the trader as a solo to sell. (therefor allowing a new car to respawn somewhere later) Tho as I say, doing it solo should be tedious, but do-able. atm as solo you cant seem to push them to a trader.

Also the above idea of loading a bike or quad into a pickup tray is great. It should ofc heavily reduce the inventory space.

Your option is very good.
But I want at least to see this in the game as well: https://steamcommunity.com/app/513710/discussions/7/6722218992176482222/

definitely like those ideas
personally i would prefer to have to maintain parts and think it be better option then having to push the car to trader to get a engine

tho i thought i heard in the last interview the pick up truck was gone and being replaced by an all terrain vehicle popular in the 90s

I hope there is a bicycle frame.

[4MIGO]

-pickup truck to ram through tier 1-3 walls <-- would be super funny, but needs good balancing! :D
Maybe not Tier 3 imho... guess with mod support this would be a thing, if not added by devs.
:)

+1 for removing seats and/or adding more chests/space for storage, while balancing speed etc. according to.

+1 for bicycle frame! and looting parts... :)
Would be nice to see a BMX, Hard Tail, Fully, Racer (Tour de France) etc. which would have advantages and disadvantages, like max speed and acceleration depending on surface, obv.

A touring bicycle, which can hold big bags to store loot... *dream* :)

In other threads mentioned: more customizing for vehicles:
colors, decals, numberplates with own text, maybe a bit tuning like rims and body kits (dont want a NFS underground though!)
