Have MC, Office and Cargo Warehouse - What to buy next?

[GTAVAu]

Update: so I bought the Buzzard and am quite enjoying the crate missions now. Not quite as as stressful! I have enough for a vehicle warehouse now too, but now I am wondering should I buy that or could some new DLC be released by Rockstar soon? It would suck to blow another $1.5 million and then be saving again if the next DLC is awesome!

 

I have an MC, CEO office and a small cargo warehouse. I have a basic vehicle (Jackal) and little else. I have made money grinding the double $GTA MC missions and also playing that double $GTA adversary mode this month. I have $1.6M to spend and want to know how I should spend it. The options are:

 

1. Buzzard (would make it easier to run crates).

2. Vehicle warehouse and start doing Import/Export

3. Armored Kumara (no reason).

 

I am really struggling with the CEO crate missions. I play solo and they are either slow, or if there is a helicoptor involved obviously I need to lose the crates! I am not making much per hour with them and instead prefer the MC missions which are paying double at the moment and I can do solo easy. I suppose the Buzzard would help me with these too (map travel quickly).

 

Anyway which would you recommend I spend the money on? I think I would enjoy the mechanics of Import/Export more than crates as I prefer driving. That said maybe having a Buzzard would make crates much much more easy and enjoyable. At the moment they can be frustrating as I have lots of crate missions involving choppers which are impossible for me, especially playing solo.

 

Thoughts?

Get the Buzzard. It will help you a great deal during CEO missions - really you shouldn't be playing as CEO without it. Plus it can help during missions such as Coveted (post-patch - not like anyone plays it anymore), The Los Santos Connection, and others.

 

After that (if there's any money leftover), get the Armored Kuruma - it's an absolute must for freemode and missions (Rooftop Rumble comes to mind), as well as Heists.

[DexMacLeod]

Get the Buzzard. It really does make cargo a lot easier and with it you can pretty quickly earn up enough money to get the vehicle warehouse.

[Halal Cyborg]

Vehicle cargo is more profitable than the other two so get that and combine with VIP work.

[Rafae]

Save up 2mil and buy the Buzzard.

[agenx0]

Like others said buy buzzard, it cost like 2mil but you will earn that back quickly with the help of it!

[AndreasDuke]

The buzzard, easily the most useful Pegasus vehicle.

[OCDee]

Buy a yacht, they're very useful and very good value for money.

You can move it around the map to your hearts content. That is very useful.

You can also hang at railings and look cool, and take edgy snaps using completely stock filters to be completely original and special.

 

 

 

Sarcasm.

The buzzard for sure. You should have bought that first thing. The most important vehicle in the game by far. It makes crate running so much faster.

[GTAUrbanCamping]

I suck with aerial vehicles, but buzzard is worth it

[UncleScrooge]

I'd get the vehicle warehouse and start doing the import/export sales. You can make a lot of money really quickly, enough to buy the buzzard after 10-15 hours of game play (not including the money you can earn doing CEO work during the 20min cool down).

 

Grinding crates is no more enjoyable with a buzzard. If anything it only makes one of the scenarios a lot easier, the one when the cargo is on a boat offshore. Any helicopter you can steal is good enough for the other scenarios.

 

Personally I find vehicle cargo far more enjoyable. It's mentally engaging and has a better variety of collection jobs.

i say go big or go home... gold plane!

Buzzard, then upgrade your small warehouse to a Large warehouse close to your office.

 

Then you can upgrade to a vehicle warehouse.

 

Other interesting things to look up to:

 

Premium races(payout is 100,000 for the winner, 30k for the second place and 20k for the third place, entrance fee is 20k) You will need a vehicle for each class to race it, the classes are: Off-Road, Super, Sports, Muscle, Compact and Motorcycles.

 

VIP work: ALWAYS do a VIP work after every buying run, as the payout is good and you can use that to cover up the costs of buying the crates.

[Misa.And.Her.Hubby]

If you want to earn money in game, why don't you buy something productive? Import/Export jobs are the fastest way to earn money, but you may buy an armored kuruma first because it will be very much easier to do those jobs. After the purchase of armored kuruma you may buy a vehicle warehouse. After all, buzzard saves you sometime to travel back to your office or warehouse but it won't help a lot during Import/Export jobs. I suggest you put it to the last in your shopping list.

[Nick1020]

Definitely the Buzzard. But I'd wait until tomorrow to see if it's a sale as the current one end today. You can always grind later for a vehicle warehouse. The buzzard makes everything so much easier. Once you get it, you'll see a huge difference in how fast you finish a crate run.

[AboveAndBeyoncé]

I say a vehicle warehouse because it will quickly pay for itself after a few hours of sourcing/delivering cars combined with CEO VIP Work and then you can use money earned from that to buy youre buzzard and then whatever else you want after

[GTAVAu]

Thank everyone, so the vast majority are saying Buzzard and a smaller number the Import/Export warehouse.

 

Quick addition question: from what I can tell the I/E missions are basically 1. receive mission to steal car, 2. go find and steal car, 3. bring it back without damaging it. Is there any fighting, guns, explosions, choppers, harassment involved or is it pure driving?

 

Also, I remember the LifeHacker 10% discount for the Buzzard which is good, but waiting to see what the new sales are!

The I/E steal missions usually involve some combat. Either killing people around the car you need to steal and/or getting chased by NPCs in cars/helicopters once you steal it.

 

So nope - not just pure driving. Although most of the time you could get in and steal the car without fighting if you wanted. Depending on how fast your stolen vehicle is, and how good your driving skills are, the pursuing cars and choppers may or may not cause you some harassment. Nothing major though.

Buzzard.

Buzzard makes it easier to grind VIP work. You can earn $20k from Head Hunter in less than 3 minutes with a Buzzard. You can also earn $20k from Sightseer using the same Buzzard. Cycle that and the Buzzard will pay for itself. It also helps with other VIP work, including crates and vehicle cargo.

 

Kuruma, don't fall in to that trap. You don't need one. If your heist crew struggle on some setups then one of the other 3 will probably be rocking the noob shell anyway.

 

Vehicle Warehouse would make you the money back faster than anything else. At $80k for a high end sale that's easy to do and even easier to ensure you always have high end cars to sell. $240k per hour selling cars solo, plus whatever you make between selling, it'll pay for itself in no time.

 

 

I'd choose Vehicle Warehouse first, grind the sh*t out of that and then buy a buzzard with the vehicle cargo profits.

[Captain_Fluffy]

Well, if you decide on a Buzzard its currently discounted at $1.3 million.

 

**Vehicle warehouses are also on sale as well, so you can get the La Mesa one pretty cheap, mind you everyone else seems to have this as theirs so there is always the potential for shenanigans.

Not long had my Vehicle Cargo and Warehouse, been grinding a bit on my own but does get a little boring after a while.

 

I promised myself I wouldn't fall for the 'grind' and maintained that having fun would be my priority but before I knew it, I had a full Vehicle Warehouse!

 

I tend to export my top range cars on my own or with a trusty friend, then export the Low/Mid range cars with randoms from my session who accept the invite, I've made the majority of my money through doing this. Always looking for associates if anyone wants to make a bit of money? Both Vehicle Cargo and crates.

 

After looking through this thread it looks like the Buzzard is my next purchase.

 

It was a $1.75m Sunday when I last looked, if its discounted to 1.3, then looks like that's tonight's purchase!

Buy it! I hardly use my PV's these days...I just fly around in my Buzzard and have become pretty proficient with it. I'll fly CEO's around if they are no good with the whirly bird.

My only issue with that is that I personally quite like the driving I'd stick to Forza, but I cant hop out of the car and punch an NPC in the face in that

[Lubas]

Buzzard and Yacht!

[Gridl0k]

Vehicle Warehouse, but not the cheapest one. And learn how to procure and export Top End only.

 

And I'm a huge buzzard fan. But teach a man to fish...

Edited January 31, 2017 by Gridl0k

[huckmonkey]

Definatly vehicle warehouse. That will pay for the rest in short a time.

[Gridl0k]

Also, apparently now discounted

[lol232]

Buzzard - especially since it's on discount now!
