I hate appreciation threads for vehicles you cannot even customize...

I like the normal one cause it's fast as f*ck and very stealthy, for some reason the buzzard always has it's cockpit light on which is dumb

Tested this on a air race track...and even though i misstept more in the buzzard i still was much faster with it

Must say its realy quick and nimble for its size though :) ...but its not the size of a cargobob and i dont see any use for it...unless you can fire mg's when sitting in the back but....thats not the case isnt it ?

it's awesome as a free helicopter, crazy Rockstar is just GIVING them away for free.

 

(if you have between 1,500,000 and 1,600,000 and you try and buy the Flying Bravo it's free)

In worn black with pure black tint it is one smexy heli, if a helicopter could be considered smexy. lol Unfortunately you can't do sh*t with it in MP so it's just kinda meh. Classic looks a million times better than the Bravo, tho.

 

*forgot I deleted all the pics of the ones I did up in SP. `~` *

Both retract for me in Online. I've never flown them in SP so I can't say if the same thing happens for both models.

Makes sense that retracting the landing gear improves handling/reduces effects of turbulence - works on planes (as per game mechanics, at least!), so logically...

Also, it's a better transport chopper than the regular in-game ones, since you've got actual doors, rather than people hanging off the sides in a perfect 'shoot me off the chopper!' position.

I'm normally of the opinion of 'if you want to spend money on a non-combat Pegasus vehicle, at least get the ones that don't spawn in Freemode' anyway (Duster and Shamal, and the DLC ones), but there's a lot about the Swift that not only beats the 'stock game' choppers, but also just makes it a good purchase in general.

No excuse to realize an Airwolf now !

Does somebody knows what is the difference of customization between the normal Swift and the Flying Bravo variant ?

PS : Please, remove this thread to the vehicule section.

^ You can't customise either the normal or FB variants. I never tried my FB but here's a swift painted before they changed it;

ps I think there's already a Swift thread in there.

^ Nice paintjob ! You sure about no possibility of customizing it ? I just saw some yt videos were we could see someone modifying his normal Swift.

You could do it day one, but not after ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

 

Unless they fixed it? But I don't think so.

I'd totally buy it if you still could repaint it.

Wait, you mean they turned off the customization option since last month ? WTF Rockstar !

I'm gonna go ask a ticket. Can't believe they did that.

They did it on purpose man. It is so people don't paint their Swift gold.

This is nonsense ! But what about the flying Bravo variant ? They could keep the livery and i would avoid the copy of the deluxe version !

Damn ! I'm so pissed, i wish i could have customized mine before they patched it !

Come on, this is weak. I have no reason to keep it stored in my hangar if i can't touch it like for the Valkyrie.

 

PS : GridIOk is this Swift yours ? Damn these colors are great ! I envy you !

I really don't get this; the original Swift didn't have the luxury interior, so why does it matter if it's painted gold? It's not going to fool anyone you're trying to pick up.

To force players to spend $10 mil to have the gold paintjob. Also to keep the exclusivity of the gold Swift in tact.

 

I know it sounds silly af but that is definitely why they did it.

I will be amazed if Airwolf isn't the chopper that displaces the Hunter as king. Literally everything needed to make it is in the game now. Rocket boost, homing missiles even most of the model !:)

No one gets it but it's a huge indicator of what Rockstar is and how they treat the game (and it's customers who bought it.. a few times). You have a painted Swift anyway right? I have a couple, got in before they realised people could paint the swift and hotfixed that mother like it was the biggest money glitch of all time.

^ Lucky bast*rd, i had to leave my country the day before the dlc came out and won't be able to play again until X-mas :(

 

Agree, the Swift should be buffed, no reason to tolerate hunter's supremacy of the air, there's enough helicopters that aren't used in-game (Volatus, Supervolito, Valkyrie and so on).

 

PS : Following R* logic, we shouldn't be able to paint the Supervolito since it could replace the carbon one.

 

Why didn't they put this livery from TBOGT anyway ? It could have been a great addition ! The Flying Bravo one isn't that much pretty as compared as this one :

We're getting a very spy-like DLC soon with new aircraft. I think a Skywolf Swift would be an awesome addition :D
