Tiny map suggestion for .8

I've been playing Qinling 32 a bit recently, and I would like to voice my request for more dirt bikes. Not a lot more, just make two spawn at FOB/Farm instead of one, and maybe one that spawns in the main.
These things are really effective once you learn how to drive them, great for recon or getting to a good sniping position if you are a sniper or, if you are a spotter for a Jet/Chopper on 64, then getting to spotting positions. We definitely need more than just one.
My two cents.

What? Those things are like rocks. You just gotta learn how to ride one. I've been across Qinling and back tons of times without it blowing up.

Off-Road Maneuvering 101:
Slow down for obstacles (Hills, dips, dives, rises, etc).

yeah dirtbikes are built to power over such obstacles, they are way too fragile if you ask me

its just one of thous very low priority things we cant be asked to fix
if some one from the community fixes the dirt bikes up thou and submits it to us, im sure we will include it providing all the code is good etc. But probably not into .8

All you have to do is give them 100 or 200 more hp,it's just one line you have to change

no you see its more the fact they need better handling, a material that stops them from taking damage, and many other changes.
Right now we have bigger problems like getting AAVs to climb hills again which is much higher up on our priority list than fixing a dirt bike that is used in very few maps, in very small numbers and dose not feature much in the mods gameplay etc.

But, back to the original posed question, will there be more of them, instead of just the one per side?

I like the idea of seeing a single light recon vehicle on larger maps, but i dont think the dirtbike is all that right for it.
The dirtbike does work in that role, however, its quite buggy as of now and other vehicles like the DPVs better suited for the role.

Needs moar ATV.
Also, the main problem with the dirtbike is it's weight setting. If it didn't "weigh" as much, it could actually pull off alot of what can be done in RL with one...aside doing backflips.

Love when you sit in a tank, just tap one round after the uber leet driving that dirtbike over there, quite a show watching him haul ***, avoiding the trees at high speed, thinking that satan is after him. And then he crash.
