Why GTA Online's Oppressor Mk2 nerf in summer DLC is lacking 10 Comments Share The Oppressor Mk II is still powerful enough in GTA Online (Image via Rockstar Games) GTA Online’s The Criminal Enterprises update is finally here, adding tons of new content and major gameplay improvements for players to enjoy. As Rockstar Games promised, it also nerfed the Oppressor Mk II that fans have requested for a long time. The vehicle has always been overpowered, ruining the gameplay experience for the majority of users around the globe. However, it appears the nerf was insufficient, and gamers can still exploit it in GTA Online. Oppressor MK II is still a force to reckon with in GTA Online The Criminal Enterprises update nerfed the Pegassi Oppressor Mk II's weapons. It reduced the effectiveness of its Homing Missiles, which are no longer supposed to be an easy way to grief others anymore. The update also increased the cooldown timer for the usage of countermeasures available on the vehicle. Rockstar made this move due to the constant feedback from fans regarding the hoverbike. However, it seems the nerf hasn't done enough to balance the gameplay. A well-known gamer, TheProfessional, posted a video on YouTube testing the capabilities of the post-nerf Oppressor Mk II. According to him, its Homing Missiles have been made less accurate by the nerf, and players can dodge them if they spot them from a distance, even in a helicopter. However, once the hover bike gets closer to the target and fires the missiles, it’s still impossible to dodge fire at that point. Griefers can still take advantage of the loophole and create an unpleasant experience for the rest. On the other hand, when trying to hit the Oppressor Mk II with the helicopter’s missiles, it’s still tough to get a perfect shot due to its smaller size and high speed. Users using the Oppressor Mk II can still dodge most weapons in the game. All of this defeats the whole purpose of the nerf, and players are likely to find it as annoying as always. However, it doesn’t mean the nerf is entirely pointless, as it's made it more difficult for griefers to take advantage of the vehicle and spread chaos on the streets of Los Santos. TheProfessional shared his suggestions to improve the vehicle by making it lock-on only to NPCs, hostile NPCs, and cops, but not other players. This, he felt, would make it harder to hit others with the Oppressor Mk II. Everything about the Oppressor Mk II in GTA Online The Pegassi Oppressor Mk II is a custom hoverbike added to GTA Online with the After Hours update in 2018. It’s a hover version of the standard Oppressor, replacing its glider characteristics with flying. Like the Deluxo, the vehicle has been given permanent hovering capability and quick agility. It's powered by a turbine engine connected to the parallel-twin engine that boosts its performance. The vehicle can quickly reach a staggering top speed of 130 mph in hover mode and 110 mph in flying mode. It’s equipped with a rear-mounted booster that gamers can use to instantly increase the speed by up to 15 mph for a shorter duration. Here’s a list of countermeasures available on the vehicle: The Chaff – Disrupts the targeting system of missile launchersThe Flare – Drop Flares disorienting incoming homing missilesThe Smoke – Creates smoke disorienting the enemy pilot The vehicle is also equipped with two machine guns by default, which can be further modified to add other weapons.
