They added missile anti-lock to the Duke o' Death?!?!

this is now one of the best combat vehicles in the game. it was already pretty decent but now the missile jammer on top of being almost fully bullet-proof + the explosive armor makes this a very dangerous vehicle. it can serve as a great counter to Toreadors now.

No. Not really. Rockets and missiles still fling the car around during which you cannot aim to shoot back....they don't have to be guided.

working pretty good for me so far, give it a try. i crash directly into them and shoot em out the windows quickly. most these kids cant manually aim the missiles very well.

Ive always liked that car because of its weight but usually i drive my weaponized tampa, but i also play in invite only, so dont need to worry about a lot of that stuff haha. I wish you could add more armor to more weaponized vehicles and that armor would make them able to push cars around like the DOD. I love the turret too much against NPCs to not use it, plus the turret disabling camera auto centering, which drives me nuts. Just let me look where i want darn it.

yup the weight is another great thing about the Dukes for sure. it's great for ramming and doesn't get quite as knocked around by missiles as lighter cars do like BlazeD is worried about.

if they added the missile Jammer to the weaponized Tampa that would help make it somewhat viable for Freemode combat even without explosive armor but until then.... i never use mine. the Tampa, Vigilante, and Ruiner2000 are 3 vehicles with amazing potential that unfortunately dont see the light of day cuz they can't take even one explosion. it's just not worth it to try to do combat with something so easily blown up.
