[[Grand Theft Auto IV]] adopts more realism in the manner fire behaves. The flamethrower was dropped while Molotov cocktails are retained. Fire may still inflict injury on a person, but the fire deducts a random amount of damage as the victim may attempt put out the flames by using the "[[wp:stop, drop and roll|stop, drop and roll]]" technique instead of simply running around in previous games. Fire is still an indication of a vehicle's soon-to-be destruction as the engine may erupt in flame, but fire from the gas tank(s) of the vehicle is the game's final sign of a vehicle's imminent explosion. Fire may also destroy a vehicle's tires, burning it before it explodes and exposes the rims. | [[Grand Theft Auto IV]] adopts more realism in the manner fire behaves.

Another fire fighting tool is the [[Fire Extinguisher]] in GTA San Andreas, which allows the player to extinguish small groups of fire when aimed directly at them. Due to its use, the extinguisher may be utilized in two of the game's missions, [[Burning Desire]] and [[End of the Line]], when the player may be required to clear paths in burning buildings. | Another fire fighting tool is the [[Fire Extinguisher]] in GTA San Andreas, which allows the player to extinguish small groups of fire when aimed directly at them.
