Hunter Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 (edited) It's half price right now; not sure how long it'll be like that for. There are a few things to bear in mind. If you're a lone wolf, you can't use the guns. So uh, don't buy it you're a lone wolf. Unless you really love Hueys. Also, I'd only buy this if you can already get a lot done in helicopters like the Buzzard or Savage. If you can't get loads of kills with one of them, don't expect the Valkyrie to change that. With that out of the way, it is nearly $1.5M off right now though, so it is a big saving. If you've had your eye on it, now might be the time. Edit: there are also these: Swift, Swift Deluxe, and Toro also on sale.

DangerZ0neX Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 gonna wait a bit longer for a Buzzard discount, I kinda regret ignoring it all these times and excusing the fact that I already have a Savage. elfoam 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hunter Posted June 21, 2016 Author Share Posted June 21, 2016 icantthinkofonew buzzard or valkyrie ? i got the money to buy them This is actually cheaper than a Buzzard at this offer. But (and this is a huge but), it's only good for fighting if you have friends with you. Otherwise you can't use any of the guns. So if you're on your own and want to kill stuff, you'll have to get the Buzzard. The Buzzard has really come into its own now for CEO work too. You can spawn it right at your feet. It's a life saver. Only go for this if you have a lot of friends, and are only interested in killing people in free mode. Otherwise, you need a Buzzard. Very useful for missions, free mode/CEO work, and as for helicopters versus players, well you've got to start somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elfoam Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 Is the swift deluxe on sale?, Got my eye on that. Extra couple mph for my crates.

Could do with more armour, but then they all could. It's a lovely thing really. I'm just trying to make sure no lone wolves buy it thinking they can use the guns.

rlk232 Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 I already have the Swift on both characters, don't like gold cars/helis or the Valkyrie. I was hoping for a sale on one of the newer helis, oh well. elfoam 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smooth Longsack Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 My favorite, yet least used, heli. Some of the most fun to be had in this game is with a crew on the valky. A good pilot (me) with his hand on passive (flares lol) can bring hell to a lobby real quick. The only thing that has a chance are the jets. rlk232 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of the most fun to be had in this game is with a crew on the valky. A good pilot (me) with his hand on passive (flares lol) can bring hell to a lobby real quick. The only thing that has a chance are the jets. This is key...having a good pilot. 99% of the retards who fly these things go swooping around like they are in an acrobatics competition and nobody can shoot anything. It's funny because what the pilot needs to do is stay level, low, and preferably moving with the nose pointed at the target(s)...which requires the least amount of piloting skill...yet 99% of the tards in this game cant figure that out.

gorskiegangsta Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 icantthinkofonew buzzard or valkyrie ? i got the money to buy themDepends in how you play the game. If you do lots of contact missions, and don't own other helis, go for the Buzzard. It is an excellent, multi-purpose heli. If you hang around with friends a lot and mess around in free roam, the Valkyrie is ridiculously fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocket Skates Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 I always liked the look of the Valkyrie though Yep that's why I bought it, even though I am a lone wolf.
