Have R* fixed the armor plating yet? (for Half-track, Night Shark, Insurgent)

[QuakerOats]

In this thread, someone claimed that R* was going to fix the armor plating issues.

Did it actually happen? I want to know if the Night Shark is worth buying now. I heard that the armor plating for the Night Shark is purely bullsh*t. It provides zero protection against bullets and it limits the driver's weaponry to car machine guns only.

 

I've tested the half-track's armor plating two months ago. Is it still like that or is it fixed?

I've also tested the armor platings of Insurgent Custom and Weaponized Tempa shortly after. They are all cosmetic except the machine gun steel plate that actually provides a little more protection for the gunner on the Insurgent.

Halftrack is still good! Fully bulletproof from the front and the back! EVERYTHING else though.... cosmetic, cosmetic, cosmetic.

Which means... ARRRGH FFS R* didn't touch the armor plating issues.

Ehh... I guess I won't be bothering with the Night Shark then. I was expecting the armor plating of the Night Shark to work like Kuruma: totally bullet-proof but with weak spots that can be shot through.

Kinda funny R* implant an actual downgrade and charge us money for it. I mean, the armor plating not only removes tint but also limits the driver's weaponry..

(If what I heard is right, people can shoot through the "upgraded" armor plates installed on the windows/windshield and hurt the occupants without the need of aiming for the weak spots.)

Wishful thinking, but see if anything changes after Tuesday's release.

I doubt we'll get any useful changes to 'old' / current content, unless R* are swinging their nerfhammer again...

The Karuma is still the #1 armoured vehicle for missions..........Duke O Death, Insurgent,even the upgraded Gunrunning insurgent, you always get shot.

Obligatory reminder that the Carbonizzare is bulletproof to NPCs and, y'know, a Ferrari.

Who said it's an issue? How do you know this wasn't on purpose?
