Wanted Level in GTA IV Era: Difference between revisions

At a three-star wanted level, pursuing police vehicles become more aggressive and the police also begin to set up roadblocks on main roads. Law enforcement most often either attempts to pin the player against a building or use multiple squad cars to repeatedly ram the player, giving him/her little to no chance to recover and escape. Also, use of a motorbike as a getaway vehicle is now more risky because of the law's tendency to ram the player. A [[Police Maverick|police helicopter]] is also called in to assist and its crew follow the player, putting a spotlight on the protagonist at night, and shooting at the protagonist if they get a clear shot. However, the helicopter has limited fuel and temporarily breaks off pursuit (most of time, the helicopter crash-lands near the player), as well as if the player enters a tunnel, kills its two riflemen, or destroys the helicopter. Police officers now use Pump Shotguns in order to stop the player. [[NOOSE]] now begin to aid the LCPD, as [[NOOSE Cruiser|NOOSE Cruisers]] and [[NOOSE Patriot|NOOSE Patriots]] join chase and create roadblocks on bridges, typically using the heavier Patriots. NOOSE Patriots also frequently attempt to hit the player's vehicle head-on, usually causing ejection from the vehicle. [[Predator|Police boats]] with riflemen are dispatched if the player enters or goes near water. The player is now unable to board the [[Subway in GTA IV|subway]] and is unable to evade the police in a helicopter.
