Yup, but it got me to finally use the thing and I have to admit it's a Beast esp that Gun! Waited for the next discount on it and brought it for both characters. Also you can easily call for the LWB Armored car or Baller instead of the Buzzard if you are rushing. 5k per "mistake". lol.

Nope never happened to me but I'm super cheap so I make sure I am not clicking on that baby. They are on sale right now I think if you just want to end the pain and buy one. I was in my friends the other day and it's not too bad, I just don't see the reason to own that and the gunner insurgent.

 

Because the gun is way more powerful ;)

Lol don't tempt me to buy it, I'm trying to save for the upcoming dlc and I just bought myself a ramp buggy.

Just buy it, its not a bad vehicle, it has its uses, so you dont get mad anymore.. it happened like 4 times to me then i bought it.

Why? That would make no sense i dont use or want the vehicle that even when on sale is 1.2 million. I dont like it and dont have a use for it. Im not going to shell out 1.2 million for a vehicle ive had zero interest in since day one and dont have use for. I may have one or two days a week at most where i lost money accidentally spawning so if i spent 1.2 on sale itd take me 3 month s of accidentally spawning them to earn my money back in theory. Adding on top of that if its a week or month im really busy that can extend that time its take to become worth it. If there is that one extremely rare chance id ever want to use it id rather spend 20k the ONE time of use.

 

Has anybody lost money accidentally hitting the turret limo under the securoserv vehicles? Ive lost 60k today from this, R* is just reaching to make people lose money with high priced vehicles as the first and last option in the section where you might accidentally select.

Are you seriously blaming R* ? It never happened to me. Even when I didn't own the car. Just do contact missions and you'll get your 60k back.

Yes, yes i am blaming them. They know what theyre doing with vehicle placement. And why do contact missions? Im trying to have fun

Lmao people and their conspiracy theories on why C* put it there.

 

Also people keep talking about how the gun on the limo is better than the insurgents, how? Is it because it shoots faster, because the insurgent only needs 1-2 shots to kill someone anyways.

Being aware that Rockstar likes to siphon as much money out of you as possible doesn't have anything to do with conspiracy theories it's just obvious common sense. I find it quite funny that some people are oblivious to it.

I totally believe in the conspiracy theory, even though it's never happened to me lol.

 

But this thread makes me want to buy one anyway. Couldn't be as bad as the time I bought a Supervolito Carbon because I thought it was on the Securoserve menu.

Seriously? You can't insta-spawn a SuperVolito for free if you own the Carbon? Ouch.

But you can spawn the standard one via the menu for free if you own it, right?

If you import/export cars I think you should get the Turreted Limo. It adds variety. Using the Cargobob all the time (if that's what you're doing) gets boring. Sometimes it feels good to do things differently.

The gun on the Limo is WAY more powerful than the insurgent or technical, test it blowing up a parked car one time. It's a freak gun, pity it's attached to a pile of sh*t.

I bought this vehicle solely because I also keeps hitting this vehicle in the menu.

You think you got it worse? I was curious about one particular heli which I like it.

I thought you could choose the paint color so I clicked and then I saw 2.2M$ in red...

A lot faster. The Insurgent's Browning 50 Cal. Is more powerful indeed, but the Limo's Dillon Aero is a lot faster. We are talking something like double the damage in half the time... The Limo just overwhelms its opponents.

Hahaha I can relate to that. Bought the Volatus in part because people kept saying if you own one, you get free Luxury Helicopter Rides ... NOT true.

 

 

 

 

But you can spawn the standard one via the menu for free if you own it, right?

 

Correct. If you own a regular SuperVolito, you can spawn a free one from SecuroServ. But you'll still have to pay $5000 for a Luxury Helicopter Ride.

Obviously Rockstar don't make you click on the turreted limo but there's no doubt in my mind that the fact that the most expensive option is the one that the list defaults to isn't an innocent coincidence. If they really wanted to be helpful they'd put the Buzzard there because they know that everyone uses it, they know what they're doing. It's just another stealth tax to join all the others, stealthy enough to fool you it seems.

 

You should be more careful what you click on. As I stated I never clicked on a vehicle I never wanted. Why don't you message R* and complain to them? This is only a game...you do know that, right?

I do this on clothes much more than in securoserve, I've slipped many times and got a Karen Beejay delivered many times, but in clothes stores, on PS4 at least, sometimes the down button on the d-pad goes hypersensitive and I end up buying bits I'll never wear, lol...

I... I can't even... I'm dying xD :lol:

Being serious, never happened to me, but this sucks lol

Why would I complain to Rockstar, the couple of times I've clicked it by mistake it's been my fault and nobody else's. Doesn't change the fact that it's there to take a bit more money from careless players rather than to provide an optimal service. It's not a big deal just an observation.

 

What has it being a game got to do with anything?

If I lose a car during an import/export mission because of a problem on R*s servers, I don't get upset or say it's a conspiracy on their part for me to lose money..no, I move on.

Good for you, that's completely different though because when that happens it's unintentional whereas what I'm talking about is part of the game's design.

 

Again, it's hardly a big deal. Just an observation that I think Rockstar are being a bit cheeky, it would hardly be the first example of such a thing would it.

Happened to me 5 times atleast. Its when I switch from Motorbiker to Securoserv and instantly start a Sightseer or the Headhunter mission where I try to spawn a buzzard as fast as possible but my finger forgets to press down towards the Buzzard on the menu and accidentally hits enter on the limo. 20k x 5 = 100k :/

Can't say that I have ever accidently spawned a limo when I was requesting my buzzard.
