The wanted level in Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars is substantially different from previous iterations. Rather than the proximity-based system used in Grand Theft Auto IV, it returns to a version similar to that of the GTA III era. The most notable difference to this is how stars are lost. Though over time they do lower themselves, and can still be lost at a Pay 'n' Spray, stars can also be removed by disabling police cars. Each wanted level will have a corresponding number of cars to take out (ie, the first level has one car, the second has two, etc). The cars can be taken out by ramming at high speed, attacking, or by forcing them to crash. There is a slight delay period after this before the rating will lower, and you will be on "probationary" stars for a period, as in GTA III era games, before being clear.
1 star wanted level
A one star wanted level is obtained when you do a "minor crime". While some crimes, such as vehicular homicide or a murder with a gun, will not get an instant star if done outside a police officer's sight, some, such as using the flamethrower or molotov cocktails, will. At one star, police on foot will hit the player with a nightstick and pursue them (including trying to pull them out of a vehicle) while police in vehicles will chase the player. A one star wanted level can be removed by staying out of trouble and police sight for a short while, using the Pay 'n Spray or disabling a police vehicle.
The following crimes earn you one star wanted levels:
- Grand theft auto
- Homicide
- Skipping past a tollbooth
- Using a weapon, explosives or flames
- Damaging a police vehicle
- Blowing up one or two civilian cars.
2 star wanted level
At two stars, several police vehicles will come to chase the player, and officers on foot will use guns often, particularly when threatened or being ran away from. A wanted level of two stars or higher can only be removed via Pay 'n Spray, saving the game and disabling cop cars.
The following crimes will earn you a two star wanted level:
- Killing a police officer
- When drug dealing, there is a semi-random chance of a drug bust happening, which leads to two-stars.
- Continuing to kill pedestrians or destroy vehicles.
