I think the Buzzard's an overall better vehicle, but the Hydra's gimmick is kinda that it's a two trick pony where it should be a one-trick. In its hover mode it's essentially a buzzard that can turn into a fast as hell fighter jet. I think the Buzzard's better because it's hardier, has more spawn locations and is a 4 seater. That being said, the Hydra is too much fun, I can't say enough good things about it.

I'm up for the Prison heist stuff pretty much whenever I'm on. Feel free to add me if on PC (aldashin) and punt me an invite if you see me around.

Can you be in multiple gangs or crews or whatever? I'd like to join the Goon group on PC (shieldstas on Steam and Rockstar Social), but I'm already a member of something. EDIT: VVV Done, thanks New Leaf fucked around with this message at 19:19 on Apr 30, 2015 |

You can be in up to 5 crews simultaneously but have to switch between active crews to be put into sessions containing members of that crew. I should probably point out that there's currently a waiting list for LLJK so if you want to join you should put a request in the thread soon otherwise you might end up waiting an awful long time whilst I find more goons to cull.

SpaceBanditos posted:So it all comes down to playstyle and poo poo but I'm leaning towards the savage because it seems like it has a good mix of utility for solo and group action. Anyone have any trip reports on these that might sway me? I have the Hydra and the Valkyrie. The Hydra owns, and works fairly well as both a helicopter gunship and jet fighter, it's an absolute blast. But I'm also a huge fan of the Valkyrie because it's a loving Huey gunship and Hueys are the best thing ever. From what i've heard about the Savage, it's fragile as gently caress and harder to use than the Buzzard, but it also has rapid fire rocket spam to make up for it. I'd say grab the Valk if you plan on rolling with a group, or the Hydra if you just want to gently caress everything up.

Sounds like a solid vote for the valk. My buddy that I play with a bunch has a Buzzard already so I don't think I want to duplicate the capability by buying one of my own and it seems like the savage is a larger, more piggy buzzard.

The savage sucks. you have to aim the front end at whatever you want to shoot, and it doesn't have the power to pull out of a dive, and it can't avoid rockets. Get the hydra. Also, this should settle the insurgent vs armored karuma debate once and for all: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RA3PI250T18

I have everything, and honestly, I don't use any of it. The Buzzard in my opinion is still the best helicopter, simply because of maneuverability and dexterity. The Savage is way too tanky in its movements, and it's far too difficult to aim its most powerful weapon in any useful manner. The minute you take it around players, you're a big, fat, dead target. If it could take a bunch of rockets? Maybe. But it's made out of paper. Couple that with the fact that one passenger is entirely useless and has to sit with his hands in his lap, and overall it's just not worth buying. The Valkyrie has all of the same complaints as above, but everyone can have fun in it. If you have 3 other players. If not, it sits and collects dusts. Still fat, still slow, will still get you immediately rocketed as soon as anyone lays eyes on you. The Hydra is a big, lonely jet. It's cool because it's a jet, it's bad because the fun wears off after about 30 seconds. If your buddy already has a Buzzard, get the Valkyrie. Otherwise, buy an Insurgent.

Nintendo Kid posted:There was a short time on the early console versions where they accidentally made armor affect handling, but it's been fixed since then. This is probably what I was thinking of, because I remember my modded cars turning like bricks on the PS3. I still think that lowering your car makes it worse. It just feels like you understeer more.

I've finally got an apartment and a reasonably priced car of my own, so now I'd like a group of at-least moderately skilled players who can communicate and are willing to do heists every day with me. Here's my profile, is there a spot? Also is there a teamspeak/ventrilo/mumble server? Or are we all just going to use in-game voice chat?

I stopped playing GTAV for like a week because I got Killing Floor 2 and got kicked from LLJK I don't know it if was for inactivity or crew rank or what, but I really enjoyed Valkyrie and Insurgent shenanigans with you guys. Could I please get a re-invite if possible? e: I see it was most likely because I was playing with my other friends last weekend and forgot to switch crews back to LLJK....my bad.

Well I did a bunch of YouTube research and I'm going to get the Valkyrie.. I'll be poor afterwards but it will give me something cool to do with friends and mumble dudes in the air, I've got the ground game covered with both insurgents and the tank so I think it will be a good addition to my toy box. Hydra just doesn't seem like my cup of tea, and the savage just seems like it isn't worth it at all. Thanks Slim for giving some fair feedback on each vehicle!

The Savage is fun for the pilot; the Valkyrie is fun for everybody. Also it's a hell of a lot easier if you have a good copilot to knock out the people trying to bring you down with heatseekers, which you'll inevitably get killed by anyway, but it's good fun while you're still airborne.

Ever since I reached level 70, Whenever I join a public session and hear a bunch of annoying pubbies I just spawn in a tank and start slaughtering them. Since freeroam is a mandatory deathmatch, I might as well be the best at it.

There's a lot of weird stuff going on with clothing and layers in this game. I can't wear suit pants with the tailcoat, watches remove anything with long sleeves, certain boots can only be worn with certain pants, it's a right mess to try and build an outfit. I'm also upset that clothing choices are limited by sex, but that's pretty much every game unfortunately.

I'm confused. Where exactly is my payment for selling a car supposed to be deposited in? Half the time it is direct deposited, then suddenly it is in my pocket funds to be handed to some jackass in an insurgent turret to shoot me as soon as I exit and lose entirely... Should have gone into a new session when it wouldn't let me enable passive mode...

Heads up, if you're thinking of selling one of your expensive cars to recoup some cash, don't. Recent patch made all car sales max out at $100k, as dupers were having fun making easy money.
