Car Damage

[Mr.Tonguesoff(Not A Furry)]

I have seen a lot videos of players getting hit by cars when walking and when i try to it doesn't work. is this just due to difficulty settings or something else?

It does still happen, just nowhere near as frequently as it did in 7.

A notable increase in driving proficiency in the last few years. Good job Japanese and Hawaiian drivers.

it has yakuza 5 mechanic in which you have to run directly in front of a moving car to get hit

You have to pretty much deliberately try to get hit by cars in this game. Their reaction/stopping time is way, way faster than in prior games.

I remember in one of the earlier Saint's Row games there was this "insurance scam" minigames where you could deliberately get hit by cars to try and score that sweet, sweet insurance money. (It wasn't a well thought out mini-game.)

It is almost to that extent in this one. You have to make a pretty strong effort for a car to actually hit you.

Unlike those damn boats when you're grabbing trash out of the ocean that seem to go out of their way to try and kill people.

Granted, this is probably an improvement tbh. It was obnoxious how much you'd get hit by them in 7 and served only to slow you down.
