Vehicles play a big role in7 Days To Die.It doesn’t matter whether the player is on a pre-existing map or a randomly generated one, they will need to rely on vehicles to get from place to place. Each map is big.
If the player goes everywhere on foot, then it will take considerably longer to complete missions. Also, each vehicle comes with some extra storage slots thatmake looting POIs much more profitable. While each vehicle has its place in the game, there is one vehicle that is better overall. This guide will go over each of the game’s vehicles and take a look at which one is best.
A Look At Each Vehicle
Players unlock the ability to craft vehicles by reading Vehicle Adventure magazines. Each vehicle has a different magazine requirement, meaning thatplayers will need to read a total of 100 Vehicle Adventure magazines in order to craft every vehicle in the game.The requirements for each vehicle can be seen below:
Vehicle Adventuremagazines can be found in almost every loot containerin the game. However, the best chances to find these magazines come from looting mailboxes, Crack A Book stores, book piles, and Pas N Gas crates.
The Bicycle
The bicycle is the first vehicle that most players will obtain. While you can craft the bicycles, you will also be awarded the bicycle for completing a few trader missions. While the bicycle isn’t particularly fast,it is the only vehicle that doesn’t require gas to run. This makes it greatduring the early stages of the gamewhere the player doesn’t have much gas.
The bicycle has a total of 9 storage slots, which isn’t a lot. But it can help during the first few days to pick up some extra loot whileclearing out POIs. Also, in a pinch, the bicycle can be used to get away from zombie hordes. That said, using the speed boost function on a bicycle will drain your stamina pretty quickly.
The Minibike
The next step up is the minibike. While it is only slightly faster than the bicycle, it has lots more storage.Players have a total of 27 storage slots to use. They also won’t use any stamina when using the speed boost function. There are several mods that can be attached to the minibike to make it go faster, hold more fuel, use less fuel, and more.
Despite being a small bike, it is pretty tough. The minibike can take quite a beating before needing to be repaired. This is ideal for those who enjoy taking their vehicles off-road as they are likely to bump into things like trees and ore deposits.
The Motorcycle
The motorcycle is fast, has plenty of storage slots, and is surprisingly tough. The only real downside to the motorcycle is that it can be a little tricky to control, especially when traveling at high speed. There are 36 storage slots on the motorcycle. This should be enough to allow you to clear out POIs thoroughly andbring all of the loot back to your base.
All of the mods that can be applied to the minibike can also be applied to the minibike. However, unlike the minibike,it is possible to craft an armor mod to make your bike even more durable than it already is.
The 4x4
The 4x4 can hold more in storage than any other vehicle in the game. It has a total of 81 storage slots. This makes it perfect for clearing out large POIs and towns. While it has the same speed as the motorcycle, it can hold up to 6 passengers if the player uses the extra seat mod. Since the motorcycle can hold a maximum of 2 players, the 4x4 is better forthose who enjoy playing with friends.
Unfortunately, the 4x4 is incredibly weak. The slightest knock can seriously damage this vehicle. Also, it isn’t great in terms of handling, so players may find themselves losing control of their vehicle and crashing pretty often.
The Gyrocopter
The Gyrocopter is the last vehicle that the player will unlock. It is costly to make, and it has a much smaller storage capacity when compared to the 4x4 with just 45 slots. However,it is the only vehicle in the game that can fly.
The Gyrocopter is the fastest vehicle in the game, and it is great at getting from one side of the map to the other quickly and without getting swarmed by zombies. That said, the player will occasionally get attacked by vultures. This can be pretty annoying as you’ll need to land the Gyrocopter in order to fight off the flying pests. It is important to note, that during horde nights, it’s a bad idea to head out in a Gyrocopter as you will be swarmed by lots of hungry vultures.
What Is The Best Vehicle In 7 Days To Die?
While every player will have their own preference, the motorcycleis the preferred mode of transport for many players.The motorcycle is durable, fast, has a decent amount of storage, and can maneuver through small spaces with relative ease.
While the Gyrocopter is better for completing missions that are far away, the motorcycle is much easier to control. It is also easier to get away from enemies using a motorcycle than it is trying to fly off in a Gyrocopter. This is especially true in towns and areas with lots of trees, as the Gyrocopter needs a stretch of relatively clear and flat land in order to take off quickly.
When compared to the 4x4, the only things that the 4x4 has over the motorcycle are its storage capacity and number of seats. The motorcycle is a lot tougher than the 4x4, and it is easier to control. The 4x4 also guzzles gas at a much faster rate than the motorcycle.
It is much faster than both the minibike and the bicycle. It also has more storage slots than both of those vehicles combined, making it perfect for clearing out POIs. While the bicycle doesn’t require fuel to operate, it is worth the fuel cost for the speed upgrade and the number of extra storage slots that come with the motorcycle.
Since the motorcycle is the third vehicle that the player will unlock,most players will have access to the motorcyclewithin the first couple of weeks.It is a great all-around vehicle that is equally useful during the mid-game as it is during the late game.
Most players will swap between the motorcycle and the Gyrocopter depending on what mission or POI they are looking at taking on. These vehicles can also be used together in certain situations. If you start up a mission that requires you to clear out a location that’s far away, then you can fly to a road nearby, and then use your motorcycle to get up close to the POI. By doing this, you’ll be able to load up the bike with goods as you loot the building, and you’ll alsobe able to make a quick escapeshould things go south.
