Wanted Level in GTA IV Era: Difference between revisions

At five wanted stars, the [[Police Maverick]] is accompanied by a [[Annihilator|NOOSE Annihilator]]. In the main game and The Lost and Damned, all law enforcement officers [[Drive-By|fire upon]] the player while in pursuit (In [[The Ballad of Gay Tony]] they will do this at Four Stars), making getaways difficult — FIB or NOOSE are particularly perilous to engage, as their SMGs are likely to make short work of the player's getaway vehicle. When the wanted stars are gray at this level and beyond, swapping vehicles is a must in order to keep police confused and to ensure that the player has a fresh getaway vehicle. Due the increased risk of being shot to death, use of a motorcycle as a getaway vehicle especially not recommended. All officers employ more advanced driving techniques, such the PIT maneuver, as they try to make the player spin out of control and crash. NOOSE/FIB cooperation is more apparent at this level, both forces spawning and pursuing the player in equal numbers.
