Damn Rockstar!!!! They have nerfed the Insurgent!


Recommended Posts

Just great! Rockstar has nerfed the Insurgent! I used to be able to put 5 stickies to the front and kill a tank.  I got blown up last night when I crashed into a pile of car with a bounty in the middle. I blew up a sticky, killed the bounty and then my truck blew up!

So I just tested it by throwing 5 stickies to the front of it. It blew it up! Why can't Rockstar leave thing alone in this damn game???? : SHOUT : : SHOUT : : SHOUT : : SHOUT :

That sucks!

At least you should be able to stick one or two on there without blowing up. Should still work for Kuruma's and non-armored cars. And tanks if the tank has taken some shots already.

Awhile back, some losers came after me in the Insurgent with the gun on top.  I pulled out my Combat MG and killed the shooter, driver AND passenger.  I went into passive mode and air thrusted their Insurgent until they got back in it and drove away.  They never came back to mess with me after that.  :lol:

they have to ruin anything fun lol i wonder what this means for rockets v's insurgents

It's plain stupid! You can EASILY shoot people out of the Insurgent, so it's not like it was very OP!

Nah, it was nerfed because too many trolls.  I bet the armored Kuruma is nerfed too.

 

If they nerf the Kurumas is probably to get people to do heists completely, and not drive through a whole wave of enemies.

Insurgent was honestly fine as is.

 

Will do some testing later to see what's changed. However in my experience I've been hit as many as 5 times without exploding in an Insurgent. Other times it was 2 to 3. I think a lot of it has to do with where on the vehicle there's impact. From what I can remember the vehicle seems to take the MOST damage if it's hit upfront, around the windshield area, whereas the rear can take quite the beating (that's what she said).

 

Besides. It's not like it's impervious to gunfire. Very easy to kill someone in one with a gun, so that's balanced.

 

Karuma is a bit strong as is, from gunfire, but not THAT bad. Besides, all it takes is one explosion and it's done. Like any other car. Since its' performance isn't anything special, you're really only buying it for the protection. Considering the cost, that feels balanced as is too IMO.

Only liking that because you "That's what she said" yourself.  :P

 

I've killed Scotty by accident a couple of times while he was in his Insurgent with my AP Pistol.  So it's not really overpowered.  But it is Rockstar and I wouldn't put it past them.  The tanks got nerfed because free roam trolls cried about it being too powerful.  Which, yeah, it is... it's a tank.  But you can still take someone out of it.  I loved going into public lobbies, before my days in this crew, and pulling out an RPG and killing all of the tank kids.

Five sticky bomb's blowing up a vehicle does not seem excessive to me.  I always thought 5 would anyway.

 

I had some fun with a player in an insurgent last night.  Most players driving around in their insurgents are some of the easiest players to kill.

Interesting, because about 2 months ago I was messing around and wanted to destroy my Insurgent, and I used 5 stickies on the front and it worked. Not sure when this nerfing happened, but 5 hits has pretty much always been my limit.

I pulled the truck out of my garage, threw 5 stickies on the front and it killed the truck. No other damage had occurred to it before I blew it up.

I'm going to test later to see it's new limits.

I always believed it was too strong, it took too much damage.

 

I use the gun more than use it as a suicide bomb.

 

A tank should take more damage than an Insurgent, it makes more sense.
