Cover-GTA4-basics.jpg|Various basic moves while in cover in GTA IV. The cover system allows the player to cling behind nearly any solid object (upper right), minimizing the player's injuries from gunfire. The player can then emerge from cover, aim and shoot (lower right), and take cover again. Players can also strafe sideways (upper left) or peek from cover (lower left). | Cover-GTA4-basics.jpg|Various basic moves while in cover in GTA IV.

Cover-GTA4-blindfire.jpg|Players can blind fire while at the edge of their cover, providing suppressing fire. However, accuracy is significantly reduced in this method. Pictured is the player blind firing a [[Combat Shotgun]] from the corner of a wall (left), and an [[AK-47|Assault Rifle]] over cover (right). | Cover-GTA4-blindfire.jpg|Players can blind fire while at the edge of their cover, providing suppressing fire.

Cover-GTA4-thrownweapon.jpg|Thrown weapons can also be tossed from cover, as seen here with the player throwing a [[Molotov Cocktail|Molotov cocktail]] at two homeless people around the entrance to a dilapidated apartment. Thrown weapons are always thrown underarm. | Cover-GTA4-thrownweapon.jpg|Thrown weapons can also be tossed from cover, as seen here with the player throwing a [[Molotov Cocktail|Molotov cocktail]] at two homeless people around the entrance to a dilapidated apartment.

Cover-GTA4-melee.jpg|Players will have little in the way of abilities while taking cover wielding a melee weapon (such as the pictured [[knife]]) or being unarmed; players will only be able to move around cover, peek out of cover, or center their camera at a close target. Note also the tree the player takes cover has no corners (acting more like a cylinder column). | Cover-GTA4-melee.jpg|Players will have little in the way of abilities while taking cover wielding a melee weapon (such as the pictured [[knife]]) or being unarmed; players will only be able to move around cover, peek out of cover, or center their camera at a close target.

Cover-GTAIV-NPC.jpg|Hostile NPCs in GTA IV are also capable of taking cover while unarmed or equipped with a gun, but do not have the capacity to use thrown weapons. Pictured is a [[NOOSE]] unit blindfiring with a [[Pump Action Shotgun]]. | |||
