Is the insurgent overpowering..?

[Striker258]

I've been thinking... Is the insurgent to overpowering because I tested both versions one time and I noticed that the insurgent has more armor then a tank... And also I tested its speed, braking, acceleration and its ok but idk if it overpowering or not ..

[Misanthrope Z]

no, it's not

Lol nope.

You probably could of got your question answered in this thread here

http://gtaforums.com/topic/779763-lets-nerf-the-insurgent/

 

But , no, its not, but to NPC, yes, its over powering, but against other players, no, all the windows leaves you vulnerable to gun fire and you can take out the passengers/driver easily.

[AH-6 _BirdTurd]

No. Just because it can take a couple rpg rounds, dont make it OP. Also, you're an idiot if you're wasting perfectly good rockets for nothing, when all you have to do is shoot the damn driver out like any other vehicle. God you people are stupid. Oh and please stop with these Insurgent OP threads already. Its like the forth one I saw in the last two days.

[NEONSTAR2000]

the insurgent is absolutely fine as it is.

[Mr.Nedich]

No. It's not.

 

The PV variant has high armour, no weapons. Fair trade off. It's not overpowered. People need to stop declaring fun things 'overpowered'. This is why we can't have nice things in GTA Online. People bitch x is overpowered. R* nerfs it to hell. No one wants it anymore because it's not useful anymore. R* has 'no fun allowed' but the people who whine the moment something new is better than other things they bitch and moan until R* nerfs it or they've convinced the community it's a trollmobile.

 

Yes, it's heavily armoured more than the tank we know today (Pro-tip: Community bitching is why the Tank is what it is today.). Yes it's not realistic this isn't a realism sim. Yes it's expensive so it's got perks of being expensive. No it shouldn't be nerfed because of the unwashed Online poor players.

It has super weak armor now. A couple rockets and it's destroyed.

[vG LadyMac16]

how many threads do we need for this vehicle?

No. It's not.

^This. This is why everything new is seen as wonderful and so different. Then they nerf it and it blends in with all the other regular sh*t, leaving no real reason to even look at it anymore. Instead of crying and begging for them to lower the standards of everything why don't you rise to its level. There is literally no curve in this game because of people like this.

[XIantonioIX]

Its not OP you can auto aim and kill anybody in it since its not bulletproof if it was bullet proof and had that armor then it would OP

[PUB-GANG-MC105]

3rd topic about this already stop making new ones of the same thing

[s0uRp0vv3r]

Tank used to be able to take roughly 75% more damage than it does now.....rhino is a wet paper bag and should be brought back into line....should b able to take twice the amount of stickies/RPGs....so that insurgents can't just 1 shot it ....

[Mr.Nedich]

Watch videos of the tank when GTA O was initially released. That thing was truly the god of trollmobiles. R* nerfed that to being something that you don't need to spend all night shooting to kill. Personally, I couldn't care less. But if someone calls the Insurgent OP but says the Tank sucks for being nerfed needs to get slapped with a white dildo. That was before my time in GTA O anyway, but you still see old video and it's nigh unstoppable compared to the 3-4 RPG rounds it takes to destroy it. To be fair, I think the Tank being nerfed was an agreeable thing because it cuts down on twankers, but the PV Insurgent has no protective armour like the tank so any user with at least half a brain can take them out with a gun.

[NEONSTAR2000]

Totally off topic but is the tank still worth buying?

[LightningLord]

No.

It depends on why you want it. It's slow, but it can take decent damage. But if you try trolling with it, a level 100+ is going to come down on you with the fury of the gods. If you just want it for whatever or just cop slaughter, sure. But it's still a shadow of its former self since the damage it can take isn't like it was. But if you want something because you like military stuff, it's okay. But if you want a vehicle that goes boom and pays for itself, go for the Buzzard. Tank at this point is a luxury item if you have cash to spend on nothing better.

[Nick1020]

Judging by these insurgent threads I can can see the it being nerfed to withstand 2 stickies, 2 rpgs and 1 tank shoot.

[Solo Wing Pixy]

Nope not overpowering,

 

Took out an insurgent pickup with 4 people in it with my Savage easily.

There is no point in wasting RPG rounds, stickys. or proxy mines, all you need to do is shoot at the driver, how hard is that?

That depends on whether you play aim assist or free aim.

 

I would like more progressive damage from explosives like doors blowing off, engine damage and handling problems if RPGS or stickies hit the right spot. This would reward players who can use explosives by providing more opportunity to kill passengers in subsequent attacks but not lead to an insta-kill, giving the users of the Insurgent some opportunity to either escape or fight back, depending on their intentions. Right now they can throw stickies, shoot automatic weapons at at all angles with no drawbacks (unlike the Armoured Kuruma) and soak up massive amounts of damage with no punishment, whilst all other ground vehicles that attack them besides the tank will still blow up in one hit. This is not balanced.

 

TL;DR Insurgent takes same amount of explosives to fully destroy but has a tiered damage system so it's not a magic box that performs completely fine until the killinng blow.

 

Also since NPC's rarely use explosives this would not affect PvE combat outside of a few missions.

You are right , did not think about that.

[EvilFiend]

Oh but its fine to post homing launcher threads everyday -.-

[Shaundi.]

Haha, overpowering. What a dumbass.

 

It's an armoured vehicle and its fine the way it is. That's all that needs to be said.

[AceThaCreator]

While it has more armour then the tank, you are more vulnerable to being killed whereas with the tank, you are completely covered. So the answer to your question is no. I would pick the insurgent anyday over the tank. I also wouldn't be surprised if R* decides to nerf the insurgent.

[DaPopeLP]

No its not. Takes half a secomd to shoot people out of it. Stop trying to blow everything up.

[CrazyRay]

It is overpowered

It will be nerfed

Trolls will whine

Kids will cry

[Soran Is On]

No, given the recent additions if anything the tank needs a buff.
