Give the bike driver a jetpack and have it shoot swarms of rocket propelled forge guns that then in turn fire katanas! |

I've always wanted to see motorcycles in DUST, especially for the really big maps.

The only game I ever liked motorcycles in was the Grand Theft Auto series. |

Alright, how about instead of everyone saying yay or nay, lets look into how it would pan out in game
Low armor, high speed, high maneuverability. I could see this primarily being used to get to the best strategic objective at the start of the match as fast as possible, no big deal, the enemy will have them too.
One problem is i could see these being used a lot like LAV's with no gunner, road kill machines. As these would likely be able to turn sharper than a LAV i can easily see these just driving around running over mercs offering no team benefit. Killing these guys with an anti-vehicle build would be easy peasy... if you can hit them. I could see these bikes moving so fast that by the time the swarmers have launched they're already behind cover.
On to the rule of cool (or potentially awesome moments go here)
Hitting a hill just right and catching sweet air only to land in a crowd of unsuspecting opponents and just mowing them down.
Wheelies, 'nuff said
I could see these bikes getting cloaking abilities, fast undetected transport to an unprotected objective the sniper up in the hills just called in. **** yeah, teamwork.
EDIT: Wow, thought it was clear we were talking about motorcycles, wasn't expecting this much sarcasm. |

I'd prefer jet propelled stealth roller blades with spinning blades on the wheels that hamstring anyone I zoom past.

Race across the map and drop a mobile resurrection unit behind your enemy. Logi-win. |

A bicycle?
Low speed, low maneuverability, and you can fall off.
But we can put in modules that gives you training wheels! |

Tour de France doesn't have the awesomeness of motorcycles. They can only dream of being so cool. |

Will I need to upgrade my Mechanics skill to fit a basket and a bell to the bike? will the training wheels reduce speed and maneauverability? could I use a remote repair system when the chain comes off? these questions need answering before I'll support this idea |

I love the idea.
But instead of getting killed when hit by a motorcycle, instead give them damage. Getting killed by one hit would be a cheapie. |

They specifically mentioned one-person hoverbikes a while back. Them and fighters and APCs, if I'm not mistaken. But who knows what their current plans are. |
