In [[Grand Theft Auto V]], '''weapons''' are an essential part of the game. As of the [[Independence Day Special]], there are up to 43 weapons available in GTA V. Similar to [[Grand Theft Auto IV]], weapons spawns are located in inconspicuous and hard to reach places, and weapons dropped by fallen enemies lie realistically on the ground, glowing to catch the player's eye. Also, like GTA IV, the player buys the gun once, then pays a smaller amount for additional ammunition. Unlike GTA IV, however, firearms no longer have a fixed carrying capacity for each category; the protagonists' carrying capacity dynamically increases depending on their shooting skill, up to 9,999 rounds for many weapons; also, when the player runs out of ammunition, the firearm is not discarded. Unlike previous games, the player can hold more than one weapon for each weapons category.

Revision as of 02:42, 29 July 2014

In Grand Theft Auto V, weapons are an essential part of the game. As of the Independence Day Special, there are up to 43 weapons available in GTA V. 29 weapons are available within the base game while the remainder require the installation of downloadable content. Similar to Grand Theft Auto IV, weapons spawns are located in inconspicuous and hard to reach places, and weapons dropped by fallen enemies lie realistically on the ground, glowing to catch the player's eye. Also, like GTA IV, the player buys the gun once, then pays a smaller amount for additional ammunition. Unlike GTA IV, however, firearms no longer have a fixed carrying capacity for each category; the protagonists' carrying capacity dynamically increases depending on their shooting skill, up to 9,999 rounds for many weapons; also, when the player runs out of ammunition, the firearm is not discarded. Unlike previous games, the player can hold more than one weapon for each weapons category.

Weapons customization

The player can customize their firearms at any Ammu-Nation. Modifications greatly affect a weapon's performance, especially when multiple mods are used in tandem. Certain firearms can accept multiple modifications, while others may have no other customization options besides changing the tint.

Available mods
  • Extended Clip: Increases magazine capacity.
  • Suppressor: Reduces noise at the expense of damage and range.
  • Scope: Increases zoom capability and improves accuracy of non-sniper weapons. Equipped by default on sniper rifles.
  • Advanced Scope: Increases zoom capability for sniper rifles, and during certain missions, works as a thermal scope.
  • Grip: Increases accuracy and reduces recoil by stabilizing the forward grip.
  • Flashlight: Increases visibility in dimly lit areas. The light can be toggled on and off by pressing the right directional button while aiming.
  • Tint: Changes the color of the firearm. This is only for cosmetic appearance and does not affect the weapon's performance.

Weapons wheel

The weapons selection wheel in GTA V.

GTA V introduces a weapons selection wheel similar to Red Dead Redemption and Max Payne 3. In previous GTA games, the player had to scroll through each weapons category to select a weapon, although GTA IV introduced a quick-select feature for certain weapons. Except for projectile and heavy weapons, weapons in each category share the same pool of ammunition. When selecting a weapon, information on which attachments are equipped are displayed within the wheel itself, while its attributes (damage, rate of fire, accuracy and range) are given in the upper right corner of the screen.

Wheel configuration
  • North: Hand Guns
  • Northeast: Submachine Guns and Light Machine Guns
  • East: Assault Rifles
  • Southeast: Sniper Rifles
  • South: Melee Weapons
  • Southwest: Shotguns
  • West: Heavy Weapons
  • Northwest: Projectile Weapons
