it is really strange, but it seems my health gets shot to pieces in one second by the gun of the merryweather insurgent even with heavy utility vest.

I never had that happen before this fast...really...2 shots and i was dead ?

 

did they become more accurate, did they buff the damage on that gun, did heavy utility vests stop working or am i just to used to playing on old gen only ?

I don't know. I usually sit inside the armored kuruma and shoot the NPCs from in there. The kuruma is 100 percent bulletproof from the front. The only time I died was when the turret guy shot me on the side of the car.

Nobody knows.

 

could be a bug or a hidden buff.

 

just use the Kurama

Sitting in the Kuruma is boring. Get out there and fight.

Sitting in the Kuruma and keeping the NPCs in front of you is 100 percent safe. The faster you get the setups done the faster you get the big payday with the finale. I'm trying to make money not prove how big my dick is.

I'm not arguing that it's not safe. It's still boring regardless.

You can not argue what is or is not "boring" since it is subjective. In my case, I find it exhilarating and it reminds me of my teen years when I used to do drive-bys in south central. I can't describe the vibe I get. When I drive by 6 people and 5 I hit.

The insurgent could always shred you into pieces, doesn't matter if you use the heavy vest or not.

I bet i'd kill all the enemies quicker than you without the noob shell. :)

That's how it's always been. That's why everyone should focus on taking the gunner out right away

High K/D? Its so easy with the heavy west and a bike! Its all about tactics....

But yeah you can start to do your dance with the sniper and throw your stickys and use spam rpgs.....

This update has broken some setups in most of the heist,

Yesterday i was doing the Humane Labs with my friends and it was Key Cards setup , all of the players were in the positions and the Contact (Karen Damn you) didn't arrive to the parking lot at all, and this happened 2 times, 1st time we even got a mission ending screen saying Mission Over under the mission failed (where it states what was the reason the setup/heist failed), so yeah this update gave something and took something in return.

That turret has always been a bad ass. Possible its just some direct head shots that get players now and again?

Playing with low level randoms the Kuruma is fine to get things done savely.

Playing with friends/crew we take 2 bikes to get it done quickly.

 

Can't confirm that there is/was a noticable buff or something, I literally play the setup every day (PC). Only thing (but that happend earlier) - sometimes some of the Savage(s) are not attacking.

not exactly , 90% bulletproof . 300 rounds from minigun aimed at the engine may kill it or even blow it up ( the same can be said to insurgent but tougher , because both vehicle still has normal engine where a rhino tank are immune to fire yet most resilient engine toward bullets )

 

and that's not getting to the fact that the guy who drives Barrack OL has strange habit of driving the truck into the water , as if saying " f*ck this , i'll ditch the truck so they'll fail , doesn't matter if the client is pissed " . in other cases , when the truck stopped at the bridge , if there is at least a fire , it will spread and eventually blew up the truck

NPC's in convoy use miniguns now? Wow, it really must be broken then...

Sometimes this setup gives you 22k instead of 26k. Since much time before the last update.

hey guys, for convoy I have always used this tactic, everyone get in one kuruma once chopper has been taken out, drive behind convoy(don't shoot) once behind pickup start blasting gunner and everyone inside, once they are all dead allow someone to get in the piuckup while others kill rest of the guys. Take truck and park in a safe spot, destroy everything, leave, profit.

I just go for the hill on the right, after the bridge and take cover behind my car, then I blitz the gunner from the side with my Minigun, he never reacts fast enough to kill me because usually he's distracted with the other players.

no , i was just pointing out that kuruma aren't TRULY bulletproof . its just the window is covered just like DOD and police transporter , what makes it difficult to hit until said vehicle moves in angle that would briefly gives the assailant to hit the occupant

 

so to create the effect of " bulletproof " , the armor plates are not count as windshield but rather , as part of vehicle itself ( try to shoot an occupant through dinka blista's B/C pillar with heavy sniper , go figure and you'll drop your jaw why any bullet can't pierce through while glass normally possible )

She probably didn't arrive because the driver guy is finally realizing he dies every time. I wouldn't blame him for being so hesitant.

Fast travel/trip skip costs 4K. That fee is taken from the payout rather than being paid directly at the time of trip skipping.

 

Kuruma is for noobs. Period. If you are above level 100 and regularly drive a kuruma.. it's time to put away the crutches and training wheels.

 

The insurgent gunner has always been OP. I've done this setup more times than I care to think about at this point... I've seen many many MANY players get rekt in this setup by the gunner. The latest update hasn't changed that.
