Why the Stromberg is lowkey one of the best vehicles added to date.
I'd argue that the khanjali, akula, deluxo, avenger, and stromberg are the only vehicles worth getting in the dlc. At first I thought that the stromberg was a "use one time and forget about it" vehicle, but it is much more than that. Here are a few reasons why the stromberg is actually really good.
1. It's fast and decent looking - Why use a car that's not appealing to the eyes? being fast isnt always a big downside but it is a big plus side.
2. It has unlimited homing missiles - As far as I can tell, they're not ruiner or vigilante missiles, but they're homing missiles nonetheless.
3. It can explore underwater - Now obviously most people know this as this car's gimmick, but when you're actually underwater in the ocean, it is one of the best feelings I've ever felt playing gta. There's also some stuff down there that you wouldn't expect!
4. It takes hits like a tank - This is the most surprising thing to me and the reason why i think it deserves a spot as one of the best vehicles. It takes two rpgs to blow up or SIX homing missiles. This means that vs almost any other missile car it will win(except maybe vs an oppressor).

Use this as a guideline to "should i buy the stromberg or not"

Because there's nothing exciting under the water.

This and the controls / underwater speed are deplorable. Let us go deeper and fight sharks/find pirate treasure maybe has merits.

I found a crashed plane and a giant crevasse. also a lot of the different areas aren't exact look alikes. I only explored like 5% of the ocean as well.

1. Subjective
2. False. It has 30 max. *Tested in both freeroam and contact mission.
3. Sure, but nobody does that.
4. 3 explosive sniper shots is nowhere near 'tank' level status.

12 explosive sniper shots you mean? it deals half the damage of a homing missile

Spoiler alert, here exist 2 submarines since game release, 1 spawned for free on couple places, other one can buy, not realy need spend 3-4 mln for fancy car... When last time you use a submarine? probably only 1-2 times and along time ago.

I have a feeling that people simply can not admit their money is not spent well.

I own everything in the game so yea this isnt a biased evaluation. $2.4 million is far from overpriced although it could be a bit cheaper, maybe like 1.7 million

Deluxe is better and you can't deny.

It fast, can also be a boat, can fly, has machineguns and rockets.

And it based on the DeLorean!!!! one of the most iconic car in the cinema because of back to the future movie.

Deluxo cant take even a homing missile, tho it can dodge them well, but not stromberg and ruiner grade missiles.
BloodShotN8 Nov 11, 2018 @ 2:32am 
it has 30 rockets.. 60 torpedos.. so if u can fire them from under water.. bam double. fun to use in any job where u attack merryweather, also piracy prevention.salvage. but i thought i'd never use it too
ill stick with my nighshark and laugh at opressor/deluxo as they TRY to kill me , always makes me chuckle when they fire all 20 rockets and you drive off into the sunset , 26 rockets it takes to kill it

The stromberg is actually more effective than any other car with weapons.

But only based on the fact that it can go underwater.

The deluxo can fly, but you're still vulnerable in the air.

When using the stromberg, you can go underwater and no one can get you, unless they have a stromberg too. I mean it also has torpedos as well for underwater.

Point is, too many people want to fly to avoid others, but thats too common so its easily countered. But going underwater is a much more effective defense.

But on the ground the stromberg is no better than any other car with weapons, just about the same if not more sporty looking.

good to know about stromberg , could be my next big purchase, thx.

I dont agree with the kanjali tank, i bought it and its slow as hell like the other tank even upgraded. Any noob with missiles on a vehcle can take it down, oh and it's damn slow and useless
