Is the Buzzard showing as 'FREE' for anyone else?

Is this another glitch like the Hermes glitch?

The Buzzard was free ages ago, you probably got the offer but never used it.

I didn't notice the message in the upper left corner, left over from Christmas, typical R* glitch: it's not making money easier for the player, so don't bother fixing it. 

I bought the Buzzard a couple of years ago, money well spent, I just wish they'd get their act together.

I bought the Hermes when I thought it was free, cost me $535,000. It's a good thing I like the car.

Buzzard is free for me 2 n I bought it back on the 360.  Could b a bug or a offer that was never used on that character. But every “free” offer has gone to the actual price the next tunable update. 

Edit: just checked second character that I got the free buzzard for and it’s reg price.

This will stay free in game for anyone who has purchased Buzzard before the free offer last year, you can't repurchase it since it's already in your Pegasus list.

I would pay a million extra to have Danger Zone blast out when I leave Stealth Mode in my Akula.

Imagine it...all is quiet and then your Radar flashes a single high speed blip as you hear "HIGHWAY TO THE DANGER ZONE!" moments before you explode.

I'd like "Ride of the Valkyries" as an option as well.

They used Thunderstruck in the movie Battleship when they were taking the Missouri out of mothballs too!

Sometimes I like to share some cash with someone. Often it's as little as $1000 from claiming or surviving a bounty.

And when I get a message saying 'Thanks' from the low level I gave $1000 it restores my faith in humanity a bit.

Because out there someone is grateful enough to take the time to thank me for giving them a $1000 dollars.

Which is basically nothing in GTAO 2019, yet some people are grateful.

I just wanted to share that, because I think it's awesome.

I usually share money with anyone I'm working with, but when I'm a lone CEO I'll just share money I make with everyone in the lobby. It depends on the amount and the number of players, but sometimes it's only like $300 per person. It's pretty funny to see what people say. I'll usually get a few "thank you"s but there's always a couple "WTF?"s as well.

 

Edit: Just broke $9 million given out by the way! Almost at my goal of $10 million shared.

If they fixed the Hermes price, they can fix this.

I'll send it along on their support page.

I know how much you all love my sunny outlook on R* games but so far I have been right the majority of the time.

GTA VI will be made with GTAO 2.0 in mind and not the other way round. GTA 2.0 will be made with Shark Cards in mind ergo GTA VI = Shark Cards. Anything you hear about it like having multiple cities or whatever will all have been designed to sell Shark Cards, multiple cities means multiple Homes and Businesses to buy etc.

Just some food for thought.

Absolutely no doubt.

They've already said V was 'under-monetized'.

One more reason to not buy it new, but second hand if at all.

Their handling of the current pair of games and general attitude toward players really makes me prefer to play other things

Like the line in Goodfellas: "...f*ck you, pay me"

It would not even surprise me if you could buy Shark Cards in Single Player and the story is locked behind obscene pay-walls or timers. Take Michael destroying Madrazos house for example, instead of pulling off a Heist and getting the money you would be forced to play sh*tty mini-games until you made the money BUT REMEMBER! you can buy Shark Cards to skip this!.

How the f*ck we ended up with such a sh*tshow in games?

 

It started out with a kiss horse armor, how did it end up like this?

[gtafan26]

LOL at the reply I got from R* support

 

The money will be added before May 2nd.

If you purchase a Biker Clubhouse at any point this week you'll be rewarded with a kickback to the tune of GTA$250K, deposited into your Maze Bank account within 48 hours.

And if you already own a seedy headquarters for your MC, no worries - the bonus cash will roll in when you log in to play GTA Online before May 2nd.

 

 

Thats great, but its May 6th now, so, where is my money?

I don't know exactly who started it, but strategy games have had paid DLC for a long time now.

1) Tease fans with the content in your new game.

2) Release half the game (not to mention it's unplayable due to bugs and a much delayed yet hasty release)

3) Drip release the content shaved from the original promised game

 

I'm looking at you, Creative Assembly.

 

And I'm still never buying into this sh*tty business model, no matter how it's disguised.

Is it me or the Toros is freaking fast ?

I mean holy sh*t, I was going super speed to the point where I could barely control it.

I was having fun with my Custom Faction Donk (I'm wearing yellow acting as Vagos), but then I decided to take my Toros out and was like holy sh*t, this thing is freaking fast.

I have no idea.

Imagine it for a moment, you reach a critical part in the story and are given the choice to either lose everything and work for the guy from the ground up or you simply pay him off. You have not made enough money but you get a little pop up saying "GTA Dollars can be bought from the Online Shop. Press Start to buy GTA Dollars"

it's clearly by far the fastest SUV

even if it's difficult to control because of the stupid flags

*surprisingly, the behavior improves with tuned front bumper (rear spoiler does not do anything)

Nice! I have shared $8.6 million on my 1st character and I think about 3 or 4 million on my second.

Turns out the speed boost I've noticed is because of curb boosting in freemode.

It's easier to curb boost with this vehicle than other vehicles.

You can thank the high top speed and advanced flags for that.

It's the fastest four-seat vehicle in the game according to broughy's testing

127.5 mph or 205 km/h

Its because of its Advanced Flags. Due to this, it often gets stuck in 6th gear and you must come to a complete stop to fix it 

 

Doesn't stop me driving it though

[IceDree]

Holy!

 

And they didn't even announce/release a new dlc.

Its a bug.

 

It happens when you upgrade the transmission, the standard transmission doesn't have it.

 

 

[RyuNova]

The Toros is a great car and quite cheap for what it is.

Its a sleeper can if there was ever one. People take one look at it and think "Eh its a 4x4 so it will be sh*t"
