Winter is coming and so is the Shotaro motorcycle, a.k.a. the "TRON bike"... except that the bike will be available in about 12 hours or so and winter is about 6 weeks away.

 

The leaked info and PC players' mods have hinted that it will cost a whopping $2,375,000 (before mods) and the color-coordinating outfits are another $200,000 each (and there may be as many as 8 of those). They may also be locked behind a new adversary mode called Deadline.

 

Based just on the leaks and speculation are you currently planning on getting one (or more) at this point? Wait-and-see? Hell, no; never?

It being locked behind an adversary mode is kind of cr*ppy (they know full well I'm not going to play it again once I've got the thing). But I'll probably get it sure.

 

It'll be overpriced, but it's something new, and I'm kind of bored. Plus I have a load of money saved away. Why not?

If the adversary mode plays out like tron lightcycles, you still wouldnt play it more?

 

If it plays like tron im gonna be addicted.

I'm really enjoying my Vortex right now. Not so sure if I even want another motorcycle.

 

I do like both TRON movies so the temptation might kick in.

If it destroys the motorbike class as far as racing is concerned, I may consider buying it--although I will most definitely complain about it.

 

If it does not, I'll likely pass entirely. I would only buy something like this if it were necessary for racing; I can easily think of different vehicles (and other things) that I would like to buy instead.

 

Personally, I'm not a fan of the look and style, but I'm not much into the 'futuristic' look as a whole.

Yes, it looks somewhat stupid and somewhat cool at the same time (for me ofc), plus it's new.^^
I may be disappointed about the handling like I was with the Sanctus but...uhm... anyone know how the handling is? I don't care about the price, it's only another incentive to do something I love anyway... heists <3

Yes, and i even plan to make the appreciation thread for it if i can.

So far i know the ridiculous wheel fenders can be removed and i plan to black it out anyhow.

 

Besides that, it will have some insane traction we have never ever seen before with any bike.

 

Also i somehow doubt it will be completely locked with an adversary mode somehow, it just does not seem right.

Nah.

 

I want an Esskey and Youga Classic.

 

I don't really want a technicolor cosplay bike. Won't fit into any of my garages.

Oh god already people creaming themselves wanting to make an appreciation thread.

 

At least own the vehicle and post pics of it if you do. Lamest threads on this site.

Yeah... I'll buy it. Depending on the requirements of unlocking it or the outfits.. that depends. I don't see them having any requirements for the bike itself but the outfits, if that's the case I may try to unlock one or two depending on the style.. Maybe all of them.. I really have no clue or hype for this stuff but we'll see, if it looks like something I want I'll get it, or try anyway. Money isn't a problem at this point I have nothing I'm saving for and everything I "need"/want at this point.

Honestly, Sanctus handles pretty well for it's design. IMHO it's better than Rat Bike, for example, besides being very very fast for a chopper. Maybe that skull add +30hp :b

Wait, I have to play an adversary mode just for the privilege of spending $2.5 million on a bike?

 

Looks like I won't be buying it then. Dead serious. I will not waste a penny of my virtual money on anything that requires me to play a goddamned adversary mode.

I still get the 'try the new adversary mode' message

 

It's so highly regarded i figured why bother. Never done one.

Anyone know if it can do a wheelie (i.e. have you seen any modders like mrboss(who lied and says he just found one sitting there) doing a wheelie?)

 

Who ever heard of a bike that can't wheelie (like the drag)?

The fact that you're comparing a $2,000,000 bike to a rusty bike that costs under $50k is HILARIOUS.

 

I have the Sanctus. I hate it but I refuse to sell it and lose $800k. The traction is awful. Nothing like trying to execute a simple turn at speed, losing control and having your brain splatter all over the concrete. And that's only if you get the thing going to begin with, cause if you fire it up on any sort of hill you ain't going nowhere.

 

I actually had to close the entire game and restart it because my Sanctus ended up parked on an incline driveway leading to my full garage. It was literally the GARAGE FULL notification followed by one second of me trying to back up and sliding back into the GARAGE FULL notification. After a solid two minutes of this I had to close the app. It wasn't even giving me enough time to hit start and quit the session. All because I was trying to drive my bike 6 feet to the road

lol yeah

While the Rat Bike can't take a curve, I hate how the Sanctus slides and swings off sometimes.

The rat bike exists just so you can have an old highly customizable ride. Use it for fun. You'll die if you ride it into battle hahaha
