I am making vehicles at 92 and 94% durability. I sold maybe 5 or 6 vehicles and I had one person come back after buying a speeder bike saying it exploded already. He must have had it a total of 20 minutes. I didnt' see it happen, but he claims it did. I gave him his money back. Did I get screwed, or are bikes of high quality really exploding ?

Hitting stuff really takes a toll on the HP. I just scraped a wall with my 90% X-34 and took 300 cr worth of damage. I suspect your customer played ping pong with his new toy to the point that it exploded.

The biggest culprit is the Swoop Bikes. They just blow up to fast.

They need to drastically reduce the the Hit Points against vehicles and possible add fuels. This way Surveyors are kept in business.

heck i think it would be much funner to just let us fix em...then we can stand by it for a few minutes until the person asks if something is wrong....then we just look at em sadly and say...

"well, it looks like the primary and secondary motivator is loose, and your rear stabilizer is off a few notches, ill have to charge an extra 3000 for those...oh yeah, and see this thingie here? you don't know what it is? oh....well it's very important and that will cost another 5000."

hehehe

What ??? !!!

You sure of this ? I been scrapping walls and stuff around in the city with my failed experimented bike that had 1000HP and only noticed the usual decay over time... And I didn't blow it up.

My guess is that the guy must have been riding thru a pack of thugs that shot the bike...

Hi,

my poorly 67% experimented stuff did only had some drops due to the normal decay rate (less than 300 on the evening I used it) and so I wonder about the 90% experimented vehicles. Maybe there is a hidden formula inside that if you use too good materials, it just explodes if facing walls... My vehicle did not explode and since I outrun every attacker as well, it wasn't even hit. However, I will see what happens today, maybe its just a matter of time

Mine seems to decay a little slower now that I repaired it the first time, maybe I'm just used to it now. Won't be quite as bad now that I can store it when Im not using it. I also didn't think it seemed to take damage from hitting walls and stuff and i pinballed around Dearic pretty heavily learning to corner

Yeah, that is weird. I tried to destroy my X34 so i could try the speederbike I also crafted. The X34 had about 88% exp quality. I let my 10 year old take control and he crashed it into everything within a 1000m radius, several times over. Weird thing is, it did not have any less ham than when i first called it....(????)

Where can you get them fixed at? The report speaks of garages, but I have found any. Is there a listing of where these garages are?
