Just had a fun time with someone who tried to kill me on a Oppresser, he ended up starting a fight where he was always a step or two behind me.
Let’s take it from the top, I was doing some club promotion where I was busting Lindsey- err Lacey Jonas out from the Police Van and noticed the only other player in the lobby (who we’ll refer to as Stan from now on.) following on his oppresser and while the van was immune to lock ons, I still had to serpentine manoeuvre to avoid his rockets, 2nd one that hit the van also killed him too.
Afterwards he was waiting outside my nightclub so I tried to use the Macbeth shot to spawn me somewhere far away.
I got as far as the club bathroom.
So I just said 🤬 it, jumped in my Swinger, and bolted it, ended up near the cheap CEO office where he landed on a nearby roof and tried sniping me, I took cover and called in a old friend, you guys will definitely know him.
‘Oh Stromberg’
Despite it being reported that there’s a bug that could effect the Stromberg’s armor, it was in fine form as Stan took the bait and paid for it.
I decided to head to my yacht while he was grabbing another broomstick and then I decided to turn on my yacht defences, what happened next was just comical.
Stan tried hitting me with sniper fire and rockets, all shot down, he tried a deluxo, shot down, Oppressor, Avenger (twice) Hydra all ended up getting blitzed by the defence system, he tried parachuting in and was rather overkilled by the defences.
I was admittedly texting him with some smug lines like “Great Anti-Air system ain’t it?”
After awhile in which he went after another persons cargo sale, I was lured out with cargo at LSIA so I grabbed a duffel bag and got out of there, Stan grabbed the other one and delivered it, but missed a cheap shot on me while doing so.
At this point I said to myself, he started this fight so I don’t feel bad or responsible for what happens next.
I took the Stromberg, trusted it to stay bug free and went to work flyswatting.
End result? 6-0 in my favour and the kicker was he thought I was cheating because of the Strombergs armor as he said and I quote, ‘bs that car hasnt that much armor. reported’.
To which I replied, ‘Then you clearly don’t know the Stromberg then.’
He sent that after death number 5, death number 6 was when he rage quit.
I’ve probably said this before, But just on entertainment value alone, the Stromberg has more than paid for itself.
9/10 times it will beat oppressors and deluxos simply because of its durability, although it’s low weight does mean a well placed blast can flip it over and render you defenceless, but that’s risk i’ll happily take on.
