Slipstreaming for bycicles?

[FasterThanYou]

Could you guys introduce this? So in medium and high speed riding behind another bycicle doesn´t take away energy, or maybe it takes it away but allows you to go faster and build up speed?

 

It´s already there for cars and it would improve 500% triathlons and bycicle races online, giving it a tactical dimension. So if you ride alone you burn up more energy/go slower than in let´s say a 3 guys pack taking turns in the head.

 

It shouldn´t be hard to implement.

^^ Agreed. Would definetely make the whole thing a little more realistic, with a powerful pelaton chasing down a small group of leaders. Im just happy bikes are back!

Do cars really slipstream?! That's awesome!

Yes, cars do slipstream, it says so in one of the tips before races.

 

Triathlon needs a bunch of changes to be any enjoyable:

 

1- No more unlimited stamina when you hit 100 in your character stats. It takes away all the fun. You´re just mashing a button 30 minutes. Goodbye strategy.

 

2- Improved bike handling. Less sensitive steering, no more cross ups just because you used the brakes. That way you could actually think about adding crashes when two riders touch.

 

3- Just in case you don´t know, Rockstar guys, bycicles are usually way faster downhill than uphill. Not in this game, you can go just as fast/slow in all kind of terrain. That sucks ass.
