Completing missions is key to progressing in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 Zombies mode. One of the early challenges you’ll encounter in Tier 1 missions is “Road Rage,” which requires you to not only run over zombies with a vehicle but also to repair a destroyed tire. While mowing down zombies is pretty straightforward, figuring out the tire repair aspect can be a bit confusing if you’re new to MWZ.
This guide will walk you through exactly how to repair a car tire in MW3 Zombies, ensuring you can efficiently complete the Road Rage mission and move on to tougher challenges like the Interceptor mission and taking down Mercenary Convoys.
Repairing a car tire in MW3 Zombies is simpler than you might think. The action prompt is visible when aiming at the damaged tire.
Step-by-Step Guide to Repairing a Tire in MW3 Zombies
The process to repair a tire in MW3 Zombies is remarkably simple. Here’s what you need to do:
-
Locate a Vehicle: First, you’ll need to find a drivable vehicle in the MWZ map. Cars are scattered throughout the map, easily identifiable, especially at the start of a match.
-
Damage a Tire: Before you can repair a tire, you need a flat! The quickest way to get a flat tire is to shoot it. Equip any weapon, aim at one of the tires of your chosen vehicle, and fire until you see the tire deflate and become visibly damaged. You’ll hear a distinct popping sound when the tire bursts.
-
Initiate Repair: Once the tire is flat, approach the damaged tire. Look directly at the tire, and you’ll see the interact prompt appear. This is the same button you use to enter a vehicle (usually ‘E’ on PC, ‘X’ on PlayStation, or ‘A’ on Xbox). The prompt will change from “Enter Vehicle” to “Repair Tire” when you’re focused on the damaged tire.
-
Hold the Interact Button: Simply hold down the interact button. A short animation will play as your character quickly repairs the tire. It only takes a few seconds, and no special tools are required. Once the animation is complete, the tire will be fully repaired.
That’s all there is to it! You’ve successfully repaired a car tire in Modern Warfare 3 Zombies, ticking off one of the objectives for the Road Rage mission.
Completing the Road Rage Mission: Killing Zombies with Your Car
The Road Rage mission isn’t just about tire repair; you also need to eliminate 30 zombies using a vehicle. Here’s how to efficiently complete this part of the mission:
Driving through groups of zombies is an effective way to complete the Road Rage mission in MW3 Zombies.
-
Find a Robust Vehicle: While any vehicle will work, larger vehicles like trucks are more effective for zombie-killing sprees. They are tougher and can withstand more damage, plus their size makes it easier to run over zombies. ATVs are faster but less durable.
-
Locate Zombie Hotspots: Zombies spawn relatively frequently on roads and in populated areas. Driving around the map will naturally lead you to groups of zombies. For higher concentrations, consider heading towards areas marked on the map with electric storms; these areas usually have a higher density of zombies.
-
Run Over Zombies: Simply drive into groups of zombies to eliminate them. You can drive forward and backward to maximize your zombie kills. Keep an eye on your vehicle’s health, especially if you’re in high-density zombie areas, as constant impacts can damage your vehicle.
-
Mission Completion: Once you’ve killed 30 zombies with your vehicle and repaired a tire, the Road Rage mission will be marked as complete.
By combining these two objectives – repairing a tire and eliminating zombies with a vehicle – you’ll quickly conquer the Road Rage mission in Modern Warfare 3 Zombies and be ready for the next challenges that await.
