When we translate this one, it may be possible to get slight shift in meaning toward two distinct directions:
a. will you go for a walk with me
b. it is better if you might leave. Not so rude as this one, I can't express this in so fine details - but I hope you get it.
In some languages if we do not include ourselves in this kind of question, we are suggesting to them that they should do it.

The current sentence "Do you feel like going out for a walk?" is the polite version and would not, I believe, be mistaken for the rude version which, in English, would be something like "Take a walk!"
