    Any point in buying other helicopters?

    I have the one helicopter I got early in the game (the green one), but I'm wondering: are the other helicopters more or less just skins? Is there any gameplay difference? Are any of them better than the others? They don't have stats. Is it just a waste of money to buy them?

    The whole store is a waste in this game imo. You can get the best weapons/vehicles in couple of hours, after that money is worthless. Even ammo is so easy to find you dont even need to buy it.

    No it's not worth it. All helicopters are the same, all weapons are the same...
    They'll need to add something new to this in future games.

    I can't remember but does the green one have rockets? not all of the helicopters have rockets including the one Adelaide brings you so you so it's a big advantage with added rockets, also some fly faster than others

    Yeah, the green one has rockets.

    Also, I agree about weapons. I have mostly weapons I got for free, and only spent money to buy a couple guns and upgrades. I've only bought ammo when I was really short. So yeah: the store blows.

    I don't appear to have the green one in the helicopter list as it's not there so maybe that's why I ended up buying one

    It came as an add-on in my Deluxe PS4 copy of FC5 - suspect the other upgraded versions have that feature as well......

    All choppers are the same. (whow would buy a chopper without weapons anyhow?)
    If you unlock Adelaide Drubman, you get a pretty good one but it doesn't have rockets i believe..

    The others have machine-gun/ rockets but what does the third option do? are those flares? i have never had any use for flares tbh.

    Iv'e just been sticking with the green one also. Gets the job done just fine. The other ones don't offer anything different from what I can tell.
