Jan Posted October 28, 2012 Report Share Posted October 28, 2012 Numerous occasions today in the same match I used the armour lock when an on coming alien vehicle came hurtling towards me, but it either just slid over the top of me or simple just put it to a stop. What's happened to armour lock? I remember it used to blow up the vehicle? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's happened to armour lock? I remember it used to blow up the vehicle? In a metaphorical sense, armor lock turns you into a wall, and the vehicle needs to be traveling at a high enough speed to be totaled by hitting the wall. If the vehicle isn't, it will just stop it. So next time you turn into a mobile wall, make sure they're speeding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sikslik7 Posted October 28, 2012 Report Share Posted October 28, 2012 If the covy vehicle isn't boosting, armor lock won't typically kill it if it hits you. To kill it, it needs to boost and hit you straight on, not just glance off you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, just get out of armour lock, and it will EMP the ghost/warthog e.t.c. Then board it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
