please stop me Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 (edited) Weaponized Tampa "Back in the 60's a heavy muscle car with a reinforced frame seemed like a great idea because of all the drunk driving you needed to do. Still, perfect though it seemed, a part of you whispered the car was missing something- and trust is, when you see that sturdy foundation supporting a top-mounted minigun the final piece of the jigsaw is going to slot right into place. Throw in some industrial=grade armor and the Tampa will finally have achieved its full potential." Fully upgraded this little princess is f*cking insane. Rear mortars, proximity mines, front rockets and dual chainguns make the Weaponized Tampa a vehicle you do not want to mess with. Oh and did I mention all of these weapons are fully controllable as the main driver? You bet your ass you have the power of an army at your fingertips now. *Can be used in missions and heists *Only driver can use the weapons *Missiles & Mortar have limited ammunition. *Additional headlights do not work Edited November 13, 2017 by Nasty Noodles DarkSavageDeathlyCloud, xXxKAMIKAZExXx, Waldbear and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Partajeesus Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 (edited) You can have all those weapons at once? Originally I wished that you could buy unarmed version that still had that mad max look (matte black with all that armor), but now I really want all the weapons I can get Might as well spend few millions to fast track my research. I got the miniguns already. Edited June 13, 2017 by Partajeesus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nargris Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 Yeah I can't wait to get the launchers, mortars and armour to unlock this cars full potential. But even with just the minigun upgrade its a beast of a car and has quickly become my go to mission car. One question though; how effective are the mortars? please stop me and Fireboy769 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jedi_n1te Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 How do the missiles/mortars fire? Like a tank or chopper or ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
please stop me Posted June 13, 2017 Author Share Posted June 13, 2017 How do the missiles/mortars fire? Like a tank or chopper or ? Missiles fire over head and straight forward. Mortars are spat out/sprung out of the back of the tampa into the air and then drop to the ground, two at a time. You can be spitting those things until the cows come home.

Tia Nope, the missiles do not home in. Just keep the vehicle straight onto your target, if all else fails you have double chainguns to rip them a new asshole.

Mattoropael Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 Can you rotate the minigun? How well is its armor? The stock one is fixed, but the dual minigun upgrade is a turret. Not much elevation though, so don't count on it to rip helicopters apart reliably, although it does if you happen to have a shot. J1M 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Riko Kurosaki Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 (edited) I would have liked too to be able to remove weapons from all cars from this DLC... Also there is some sort of dirt/rust/*** overlay on the paint to make it more military looking I think? They should have added this to the livery, I can't do a black shiny tampa like this And a one sticky proof armor would have been good too but well the best defense is attack I guess.

You can use it entirely solo, just scroll through the desired weapons like you would your guns, or press the horn to drop a proximity mine. I find the dual chainguns the most fun of the weapons.

Far as I know, passengers can't use the guns. Rear mortars seem to be not unlimited also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coelacanth72 Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 This seems like the dlc car to get, overall pretty dissapointed with the others not being soloable, looking at u apc.
