No, i'm not gonna make you regret clicking on this....

 

Liar! I regret clicking on this to read some conspiracy theory bull crap.

 

Go to keep some stuff exclusive to SP, just as some stuff is for Online only.

I think it was pretty unique of Rockstar making it blow up. I'm surprised at the amount of people actually agreeing with this. The Duke'O Death is only overpowered in Races thanks to its ramming ability but other than that it's just a Kuruma with more ramming power. It fishtails often and you can only shoot in one direction (lol). My Insurgent and 2 stickies could easily take it out. This car along with the stock cars should of been available to buy from the start. For those who pre ordered it of course.

The stats on the RSC are different than actual in-game. The Duke 'O Death was definitely not the fastest in races. It was actually the 3rd. best.

It is not and was not OP.

For those who are interested:

Insurgent Mass (both models): 8600

Armoured Kuruma Mass: 3200

Kuruma Mass: 1500

Duke O' Death Mass: 5000
(Just for a laugh) Docktug: 10400.

 

EDIT: It does have the highest top speed of all the Muscle cars though, at 152...

They'll blacklist it first, then put it back on the fall 2015 update.

No, it does not have the highest top speed of all the muscle vehicles in s straight line race, never was.

Though, it had the 2nd. highest double-clutch in the muscle class.

Sometimes I choose the DoD in races and just sit at the start line like a boss for the whole race.

I still have it in the garage with a hope that R* mistakenly let us drive it with the update :)

Not gonna lie, that is probably one of the best looking Dukes O' Death I've seen yet.

Not surprising, it is Worn Dark Red after all, it does look nice.

LOL Hopefully this update allows us to purchase this!

In a way I actually hope they don't release it. I like the fact it blows up when someone steps foot in it. Its a great bait car. Call mechanic and have him deliver it to me out front of my apartment. Make sure vehicle access is set to everyone. Go into apartment and watch it through your windows or telescope and wait. Sooner or later someone will come accross it and get curious. Boom.

Seriously? Did you not ever have it online? I did and I was the asshole that used it. It was definitely faster than the dominator and absolutely destroyed everything, ever.

 

I dicked around in this race and still won as if I set the AI on easy mode:

Dude with that record you know that race means nothing. You would have won with a stock car. A bunch of randoms with stock cars and you rammed several of them off the track.

 

Results would be likely different with good racers on non contact.

 

Being the fastest has nothing to do with its ramming ability.

If you look at its stats on the car selection page you'd see it's also faster than the Dominator and testing it out off the video was also proving it was faster than the dominator.

 

Interested, why do you think it's not faster?

Why not make it a temporary free mode spawn? Same with Rail Gun. Problem solved.

The car stats in the game selection have nothing factual about them. Only guys that race a lot in non contact races to be listened to about car performance. As soon as you have contact on you can have catch up on and then the truth is out the window.

Except they are not incorrect in this case. I have other footage too, not sure if it's saved on the PS4, but it IS faster than the Dominator and not, for some crazy reason, the only car ever to be on the race selection screen with incorrect stats.

 

Also, you're putting far too much value in non contact racing.

There are no staggered starts, which means the person in front has a significant advantage, especially in bigger races (the only kind I play), which defeats the purpose of racing in general.

 

The best tests to determine what is FASTER are the ones we did with it when it was around, top speed and acceleration tests.

 

Fastest around a track opens up with too many variables though, but the thing was a total monster regardless.

Well I never raced my dukes or had any time to test it out properly as I took on the job of spreading it around. Some of you guys that tried it say it was the fastest muscle (which is what I was hearing at the time) some say it wasn't. In the end it doesn't matter, something has to be the fastest. The point is, its not overpowered in freeroam.

I helped spread it to a few people, helped out a few more in getting over to begin with, then tested it extensively the night before it was patched.

 

So telling you from the experience of someone who actually did race and test it out, it was the fastest muscle car available to you to race with.

 

It was overpowered (at least in races) because, unlike the Kuruma, it had top stats, took multiple explosives, and could laugh it's way to victory, ramming off anything and anyone that got close.

 

If they tone down just the ramming part, I'd love to have that thing back online in a couple days. Hit me up some time if you're on PS4, maybe we can test it out together if it does come back.

I only one time I regretted spreading it around was a few days after the first one came across and I was peacefully walked down the road when a white dukes came at me and splattered me against the wall.. Lol but it could have been any car I guess. I had a lot of video of the dukes driving them around in the first few days but unfortunately the hard drive swap I did a couple of days ago didn't exactly go to plan and I had to start fresh. Mostly I'm upset about losing all the video I had of the duping party's a few months ago and the coloured Marshalls but I'll get over it.

Did you not READ my post? The Duke 'O Death was definitely NOT the fastest around a track in the muscle class. Your "test" is highly flawed. The only good things about the Duke 'O Death was its weight, double-clutch, and traction. Even with those, it STILL wasn't the fastest around a track, it was the 3rd. best, edging out the Ruiner.

I told you all that the DoD was going to be blacklisted with the IGG pt. 1 Update. But none of you wanted to listen. UhuwWe3.png
