Weapons in GTA V: Difference between revisions

In [[Grand Theft Auto V]], '''weapons''' are an essential part of the game. As of the [[Business Update]], there are up to 38 weapons available in GTA V. Similar to [[Grand Theft Auto IV]], weapons spawns are located in 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, most firearms no longer have a fixed carrying limit; the protagonists' carrying limit dynamically increases depending on their shooting skill, up to 9,999 rounds for many weapons.  

GTA V introduces a weapons selection wheel similar to [[wp:Red_Dead_Redemption|Red Dead Redemption]] and [[wp:Max Payne 3|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. Unlike previous games, the player can hold more than one weapon for each weapons category. Except for thrown weapons and heavy weapons, weapons in each category share the same pool of ammunition. To bring up the weapon selection wheel, hold {{key|LB}}/{{key|L1}} and use the right analog stick to select a weapons class. Left and right on the d-pad or {{key|LT}}/{{key|L2}} and {{key|RT}}/{{key|R2}} scrolls through available weapons within that class. 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. The player can quickly draw or holster the last weapon used by tapping {{key|LB}}/{{key|L1}}.
