Suicide Cars (?)

AdeptusArbitrator · Post by **AdeptusArbitrator** » 2007-12-22 12:16

Well, let me set the scene for you. I'm in my oh so sexy two seater, red, banged up car ready to give the British forces a blast of a time. So I spot a support truck with 5 Squadies huddled around it, I rev up the car and ram full speed into the support truck rapidly tapping the right mouse button expecting to find a good martyrdom like explosion. But no, guess what does happen... Nothing.
Instead of getting 70 virgins in heaven, I get 70 bullets in my head.

Anyone else had trouble getting the suicide car to work?
I'm just wondering though if you have to be the ambusher class to get it to work or what?
Any help is appreciated.

Are you sure it was a suicide car and not a spawn car?

Suicide cars have a pack of C4 on the back seat.

If it was a spawn car, i can imagine your team being very annoyed at you for wasting it

Not all red cars are suicide ones.
Before you hop in a car, make sure it has a C4 pack on its back seat (or press horn to play the funky music - only bombers got it).

If it got no charge on the back seat and it doesn't play the music, then it's either a spawn car (god, don't try to suicide with this :lol

or one of the 'not-yet-upgraded' cars (just slap your own charge on it then

)

there are 3 types of cars that all look the same in .61 for the insurgants. Spawn Cars that act as mobile spawn points, normal just transport cars, and suicide cars.

Spawn cars have a spawn marker on the map for them, and have a normal horn.

Transport cars have a normal horn.

Suicide cars have C4 on the back seat, and also instead of a horn they have some star wars music

I once took a normal car instead of a transport car and the driver of the APC got scared, bailed out and I shot him

Indeed.

I was confused for a bit about the whole "some 2 seaters are suicide cars, but not all of them".

There will indeed be many colors of cars for the insurgents in .7. Neat stuff.
