PSA: Do not buy the Lazer.

[Zarbon]

It's a Pegasus vehicle, and if you drive it into hangar you can only repaint like the others.
6.5m ..............

 

 

 

Edit; on the bright side it seems they extended the 2x in transform races - again - so I'll make that money back easily.

Edit2; seems this've been known for a long time and I guess I missed that memo. Oh well, sh*t happens.

it doesn't hold up against the competition (hydra, rogue and pyro) anymore, especially for the money they ask for it.

[Alvarez]

I don't mind it being a Pegasus vehicle but i'm a bit disappointed it doesn't support additional upgrades. Might take a while until I buy it, it might be the last Pegasus vehicle at least for a while

[Karrecod]

6. f*cking 5 Million $$$...

[Suq Maddiq]

Why would i buy something i can steal from base lol. Especially pay 6.5 mil.

[Sanches]

It has cool color combos (probably the only reason i would buy it), but 6.5m is a bit overpriced...

[siriochan]

The description of the Lazer it's a joke and not fun, I still prefer to steal it for free than paying a shipload of money, only a noob ends up being ht by the army at FZ

They put it as a pegasus vehicle just in case there's duplication glitches.

[HamwithCheese]

Yeah, this was talked about in the dlc speculation thread.

[wehweh01]

Dumbest PSA post ever. Y'all forgetting this can be made into personal vehicle. Least it has some use compared to the gold luxor

Sure, but no performance or weapon upgrades, countermeasures or anything. Not worth wasting 6.5m on it.

 

If I missed the posts about it being Pegasus all this time I'm sure someone else did too, and maybe, just maybe this thread saved them the mistake of wasting money on it.

Can you imagine being a jet and prostituting yourself for 6.5 million dollars while other jets are giving free test rides? That 6.5 million dollar jet must be depressed as f*ck.

This jet is better than half the smuggler run aircraft though.

But it's got a twin brother that's free, that's what I was hinting at. Sure, you gotta steal it and you can't store it but it's 6.5 million cheaper.

 

I feel that anyone who buys the lazer are the same people who bought that golden flying dildo at 10mill just to show how much money they got.

Since hangars that is not a problem.. because you only start to get shot at when you enter the lazer.. so no worries, also to customize the lazer you also need a hangar so you have to have that already.

It has cool color combos (probably the only reason i would buy it), but 6.5m is a bit overpriced...

 

A bit?, it should cost at max, 2.5m, being that it doesn't have vertical flight like the hydra and also it's hell to land properly, plus being free in the base and even easy to get if you own a hangar there and you get no police until you steal it..

[wehweh01]

I dunno, I still feel that this aircraft has worth compared to the staggering $20,000,000+ of worthless smuggler run vehicles. I would've preferred it getting countermeasures but oh well.

No one is saying it doesn't have worth, it's just not 6.5 million dollar worthy. Especially if another update is about to drop, and it's an item that has been available in Free Roam since 10/2013.

It's definitely a killing machine, but let's just be realistic about its Price Point, and it's value in 2017.

[Alvarez]

Maybe when it can be converted to Lazer Custom, similar to Insurgent Pickup, then I might consider buying.

[theEwing1979]

In my opinion it's the worst value for money single purchase since the flying golden dildo. I honestly wouldn't even be tempted at 50% off.

Pretty sure you're the only one; it was heavily covered in http://gtaforums.com/topic/895908-will-any-one-of-you-buy-a-lazer-for-65-million/page-14 and http://gtaforums.com/topic/701329-p-996-lazer-appreciation-thread/page-6

Awful, it wouldn't be worthy even with a 50% discount.

Noobs. Lombank rooftop > ask chromed Lazer > jump to the beach and take the jet > play Headhunter and kill everyone. If you crash, you don't need lose time driving to Fort Zancudo! Just call another jet and keep going killing!

[Mattoropael]

I bought it for the paintjob, but this PSA thread is warranted. It's only really for people who want to paint it, anyone who're looking for things like "value for money" or "upgrading planes" should not pull the trigger on it at all.

 

It paints really nicely though.

3 minutes cooldown and 1000$ insurance, unless you're talking about getting another Lazer from Pegasus, in which case you STILL have to drive to a airport.

[AgentPlum]

Basically if you spend $6.5m on this you either have too much cash or are stupid (or both) Yeah, I will buy a plane that I can steal easily if I need to use it but basically there is no point anyway if you have a Hydra.

 

Wouldn't buy it for $2m let alone $6.5m!

Ohhhh 1000$!

[Geisterfaust]

$1000 insurance fee is nothing, but calling Mors mutual is annoying as hell.

 

Anyway, Lazer is the best example of vehicle that should be purchased on sale ONLY. Unless you have tremendous amount of money to burn.

Too Late. I bought it, no regrets.

6.5 mil v never driving to zancudo again, yeah definitly worth it. But you can spawn in a hangar....right, I love switching sessions after I have crashed to get a free lazer. The lazer is still the best to destory people who think they can just interrupt you playing the game. The pyro doesnt have the cannon. The hydra gets sniped way to easy.

[Spectre "2K"]

i mean, sure it's overpriced to high hell, but at least there's SOME contrast to the colors thanks to a secondary paint job -cough Hydra-
