I honestly have no problem with the flying abilities of them.  However if the capping radius at the Imp Bunker can't be adjusted you might want to consider adding some extra barriers or something on/around the rooftop.  As far as I know, that's the only exploit that can be taken advantage of by flying the speeder bike.
Lol this is messing my mind up: Since these speeder bikes hover above the ground aren't they flying even when used properly? tongue

Agreed! I think it's pretty lame getting on top of the outpost building and capping. There's no fire-fight. Get up there, plant a beacon and it's over.

The outpost is the key base for the imp's on this map and shouldn't be capped by a single guy on a speeder bike.

Re: Flying speeder bikes

I have a feeling you guys are talking about me.  Everything everyone has said about seeing somebody "swooping in" etc has been things that I do whenever I get on an Endor or large Tatoonie server. Exploits I've noticed with it so far, if the "driver" knows what they are doing.  Is capping the Tree Village right after the speeder camp within seconds. Being able to sustain an altitude above the enemy and constantly fire down at them while they try to figure out where those blaster shots are coming from (great fun, lol).  However there is a MAJOR exploit with this bug/exploit/ability that I shall not post here because it is a very big exploit that can be done. I've also found some clipping errors on the Endor map which can give people in the know a very good advantage over anyone who comes near. If a dev would like to know of the exploits I'm talking about, I will be glad to explain, just not in the public eye.  Meanwhile I will keep testing around and see what else can be done.

You! I just fought with you earlier this morning, accursed exploiter... you'd fly 200 feet straight up in the air, turn your nose down, and pummel me.

That was great fun big_smile

It was only when I took another Speeder that I finally took ya DOWN, down into the fiery caverns of the underworld, where vampire bats will forever nip at thy screaming flesh. My how the snake gods will be pleased.

Re: Flying speeder bikes

Haha, good times... yeah I knew an exploit when I saw one, I tried laying mines everywhere to catch ya. Unfortunately your little hover trick didn't take you within detonation range. sad

I couldn't get too mad at you though, it was a cool trick; I've landed air transports in titan cargo-bays before, it was so fun, even though I always died... hope to battle you again someday! cool
