Needs more ways to get a wanted level
So unless i'm missing somthing, it seems like there isn't many ways to get the police after you between missions...

Aside from randomly killing pedestrions etc, which is immersion breaking.

Anyone else feel the same way, like the game looks gorgeous and plays great.... I just feel like theres not enough things to do between missions, mainly ways to create action and get the cops chasing you etc

Yes...

The game is too easy... There is a five star wanted system, which is rarely used unless you go on a random rampage, which breaks emerrsion.

Like the main system in the game which creates the action isn't being utalised fully.

If you shoot cops you will get a wanted level, try it out.

Maybe Rockstar could patch in a Raincoat and Indecent exposure for you. Or take the Strip Club groping to the streets.

Thats exactly my point, unless you go on a rampage killing cops for no reason (breaking emmerssion) there is no action between missions...

In GTA there is always a reason to shoot cops, always.

Wait, isn't shooting the cops the main mission?

WTF have I been doing in game?

Driving around minding my own business and they run into ME while chasing some random deviant and then start chasing me around shooting up my car.

In my opinion there needs to be more content, like random shops and banks to rob etc, randomly killing police isn't the way I play, for me it breaks emerssion.

Or the gang territory system in San Andreas was cool, they should bring that back for when you play as franklin.

  • Harassing police, either by honking at them, flipping them off (especially when trying to perform a Drive-By Shooting without a gun), walking into them, standing on top of an occupied police vehicle, doing burnouts near them, talking to them repeatedly using the interaction button (which causes the character to start insulting them), or even standing next to them for too long.
  • Harassing, injuring or killing a security guard (or even his dog).
  • Acquired if a pedestrian calls the police on the player for harassing.

Cops in this game are bad, violent animals. They'd shoot you (or any NPC) on sight if their car bump into yours (or vice versa) or you give them the bird or you melee corpse of dead cop, etc.
