Hey guys this seems pretty weird to me. I was driving the muscle car just in a server with only me on Midnight Sun and whenever it picked up speed it would keep taking damage. It's like I was getting shot, I wasn't hitting any big bumps or anything, it just kept taking damage.

Even if it might be because the car shakes a little with the suspension going at high speeds, doesn't that seem kind of ridiculous... I mean when was the last time you knew going fast in a car made it blow up without physically hitting anything? If anyone else can verify this happens when driving fast on the road in it, it would be appreciated... thanks.

It's on the map near the water, it's away from any flags. You'll see the vehicle icon on the map. (It's Operation Midnight Sun, 32 or 64)

yaa, I think its meant to be a "realistic feature" that EA put in...

Maybe it teaches kids not to drive fast cars at high speeds? haha

It happens also with the little bird heliS. If you land to hard on the ground you will take much damage. I think they should reduce all those stupid damages with half.

Yeah but that's because you land too quick or too hard. With the car you're literally driving and you just start taking damage out of nowhere. It's like it's made out of cardboard and all that wind is breaking it.

Yeh, well if you stay on a paved road you dont take damage...

Funny you didnt pick up the other bug in that car; the passanger doesnt hear the rev sounds, it just keeps idling the engine sound...

It's as fragile as an ATV I am going to post a video in about 30 minutes.

OMG I freaked out when I got in the muscle car and started driving it around LOL I thought I was under attack when I saw my life bar going down. I got out of the car, ran off to make some distance thinking I might get hit by an AT dude or something, hit the dirt and started spraying ammo I was so freaked!

I had a car like that when I was 16, it was basicly a 454 engine with rust.

The transmission is loose. It's knocking against the hydraulic differentiator and causing it to lose blinker fluid.

Watch what ya say, EA might raise our taxes in order for the highway fund to take better care of our roads.

Yup,noticed the muscle car damage too,looks like it bumps on the ground at high speeds with even the slightest turn.

The Little Bird is very sensitive when it comes to landing,the chinese chopper is pretty tough in comparison,you can really just bump it on the ground and the landing is safe.

That's a relief, I thought I was being shot everytime I drove that thing. I was afraid to keep driving so I just bailed out after a short while.
