In GTA IV, the agency is known as the Federal Investigation Bureau (FIB), presumably to avoid conflict with the real-life FBI. The name is also a play on words, since ''fib'' is a synonym of lie. In-game, characters do not pronounce the acronym as one word; instead, each letter is pronounced individually. | In GTA IV, the agency is known as the Federal Investigation Bureau (FIB), presumably to avoid conflict with the real-life FBI.

As the [[Wanted Level in GTA IV|wanted level system changed]] in GTA IV, they now appear at four stars, sometimes along with [[NOOSE]] to assist the [[LCPD in GTA IV Era|LCPD]], and more heavily at five and six, and will expertly drive and doggedly follow the player. They now drive [[FIB Buffalo]]es with four agents to a car. Meeting a FIB Buffalo on the road is particularly dangerous: the car is the fastest law enforcement vehicle in the game, the driver relentlessly pursues the player and attempts to ram the player whenever possible, and its three passengers are armed with SMGs. This combination can make short work of a player's getaway vehicle if the player does not act accordingly.

On foot, agents are typically armed with [[M16|Carbine Rifles]], although some agents carry [[Pump Shotgun]]s and [[SMG]]s instead. Additionally in [[The Ballad of Gay Tony]], agents carry the [[Automatic Shotgun]] and the [[Assault SMG]]. FIB agents appear to be more accurate than [[NOOSE|NOOSE's]] Tactical Response officers; however, FIB agents are more susceptible to being shot. | ||
Unlike the LCPD and NOOSE, both of which employ young to middle-aged Caucasian, African American, and Hispanic officers, the FIB is solely employed by late middle-aged Caucasian men. They use different types of uniforms; some agents wear random clothes with navy blue jackets jackets with "FIB" printed in black letters on their backs with an eagle design. Other agents wear random clothes with their distinctive blue track jackets with "FIB" printed in black letters on the back and on sleeves. Other agents wear black suit pants with a white shirt and a black combat vest and a badge around their neck reading "FIB". All agents carry their FIB badges on the neck. In GTA IV, when the player reaches a certain level, he/she unlocks a "FIB" hat for their multiplayer avatar. In the The Lost and Damned missions [[Bad Cop Drop]] and [[Politics]], and in the The Ballad of Gay Tony mission [[Going Deep]], the agents employed are of African American, Caucasian and Asian descent, and wear different apparel, such as suits and ties, overcoats, blue FIB track coats, and others who where a tactical vest with the letters "FIB" printed in yellow on the front and the back. | Unlike the LCPD and NOOSE, both of which employ young to middle-aged Caucasian, African American, and Hispanic officers, the FIB is solely employed by late middle-aged Caucasian men.
