Ahh Here is the right tread for it

 

Hi, I just bought it and Fully tuned it

 

I find it a bit strange. On Youtube are Video´s that the Insurgent take 5 or more Rpg hits.

like this below
I tested my 3 times, front hits, rear hits or side hits , it Only take 3 Rpg shots and Blow Up...
Is it because of the different consoles ? I´m on the 360 Version
thx

 

 

 

I recall someone mentioning in another thread that vehicles become tougher when players are in them, likely what it was, make sure you have 100% armor too. Thing just shrugs off tank rounds, lol.

 

The insurgent doesn't have an armor option. Unless you mean using iFruit/Charles...but does that really help resistance to explosive? Shouldn't it be only damage from contact and bullets? Also I've never heard of that vehicles becoming tougher when other people are in them.

 

 

This. How much Rpg´s shots take yours ?

My new daily driver... Definitely worth every penny! This car is an absolute BEAST!!! I will just drive around lobbies smashing into NPCs and others players sending them flying, its too much fun :)

Mine has the exact same paint job, just with more suitable wheels

I fully upgraded mine today and took it out. It was very fast and a monster. I like the default paintjob, but might turn it black when I get tired of it. Haven't decided on a good rim option yet

 

 

 

Is there ANY way to change the color of the stock wheels?

 

 

Yes. Buy any wheel and choose desired color, then go back to the stock wheels.

 

yes and no. It will show the desired color but when you select it, it resets.

 

 

Worked for me, try this way, buy any wheel and choose desired color, choose any wheel type and select chrome rims, select stock wheels.

 

Nope. I select the muscle - Classic. Paint them Red. then go to Offroad - Chrome and select Stock. Still resets.

I don't mind it being heavily armored. That's great.

 

It is ABSOLUTE BS that I have to pay 16,000 for blowing one up after being griefed by another player.

 

There's absolutely no reason to blow it up. Don't be dumb. Shoot the driver (you can lock on him if you play auto-aim, just like with any other car) and leave the area. Blowing it up takes effort, wastes ammo, and does you no good anyway because he's just gonna call Mors Mutual while laughing at you. Keep your AR ready and forget the explosives for once.

Funny you said penny...

I'd been messing around with some regular colors and noticed that rough look it has, so I did the Copper paint job (Bison Brown metallic with Salmon Pink pearl) then did the secondary as Chocolate Brown and dark brown rims. I'm digging it for now, I keep thinking of those Duracell commercials.

I swear on my mothers grave that my Insurgent had Armour when i first upgraded it. Or did they ninja remove it between now and the last time i took my insurgent to LSC?

^I've heard other people say they saw the armor option too but assumed they just imagined it...maybe it was there for a couple days after the update came out cause I know when I got mine 2-3 days after the update the option wasn't there. It's still possible with iFruit/Charles but idk what effect it has.

Welp, outside of the vehicle, both SUV and Pickup will eat 3 rockets, unsure about inside, unless they just disabled Armour on the vehicle as a whole. Really weird.

Here's another shot of my Insurgent so you can see the blue chrome better.

I was in freeroam the other night driving around with 2 other players in my Insurgent and stopped by the docks to pick up a 4th random player. I tried honking at him to make him get in, but he decided to open fire on us instead (we went untouched)... So, I rammed his car into the water while he was in it, causing him to have to pay insurance for his own car. Then, i proceeded to troll him for a while till he left...

 

This car wins in so many ways!

Mine looks the exact same as yours, wheels and all. I put 100% armor on it with Charles and it tanks even more explosives. Absolutely love this thing. So using Charles to add armor does actually have an effect? Normal car armor doesn't help with explosives.

Don't see many Insurgent Pickups here, but I assume the thread applies to both vehicles.

 

Is it correct that the pickup version also is customizable to the same extent as the cheaper version?
Is it impossible to kill someone by shooting through the windows, as the Police Riot, or is it just harder to kill someone?
If yes, are all windows bullet proof or just the front?

 

Considering buying it, but I just want to make sure it is worth it first

did the same with mine an hour ago. also put full preformance mods on it. this thing is a beast now! i love the look that we both have on our insurgent. but from one point it looks like a pegasus vehicle... might change it something eventhough i love it.
