ThaColter Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 Hey I Just bought Hydra today and its so f*ckin slow? Am I doing something wrong or what? P.S Yeah I'm not trying to fly it in VTOL mode. I'm not that dumb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr.Smith187 Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 It does have a slow take off, but once you get going it gets fast. It has the highest top speed of all the air vehicles (at least at the moment... we'll see if that stays true after the next DLC...) kovaandr, ThaColter and Gaffa 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrfonzius Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 Well the Besra always felt sort of faster to me, guess it is just the acceleration Goingcrowd9, Mr.Smith187 and ThaColter 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
update_lsc Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 The hydra's acceleration is terrible, but it does have the highest top speed of any vehicle in the game. It just takes a bit to get there.. kovaandr, Goingcrowd9, ThaColter and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snoopbr Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 Were you expecting a realistic speed? Note that GTA V wasn't designed to support ultra high speeds through the map. Goingcrowd9 and ThaColter 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThaColter Posted August 25, 2017 Author Share Posted August 25, 2017 Yeah I remembered to put wheels up. Anyway im getting better at it. Accelerates slow but its a killing machine. So glad I bought it haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaffa Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 Yeah I remembered to put wheels up. Anyway im getting better at it. Accelerates slow but its a killing machine. So glad I bought it haha Yeah in a dogfight, the same pilot will do better in the more manoeuvrable P996 Lazer, which like the Besra can go into a vertical climb up until the game's altitude limit. If you try doing that in the Hydra however, it just doesn't have the power to get it's big booty up there without stalling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goingcrowd9 Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 Yeah I remembered to put wheels up. Anyway im getting better at it. Accelerates slow but its a killing machine.

Reminds me of a time I rammed a Buzzard with one and killed him, with no damage done to me, or a time I managed to ram two people having a sniper strafe battle on the beach.
