You'll get away with a lot with accurate aim, straight shooting and a quick reload. You do not have an unlimited capacity to carry all the weapons you might find, only a maximum of two handguns and one machine gun/rifle or shotgun (with suitable ammo). NOTE: See WEAPONS controls, page 5. WEAPON TYPES GRAND THEFT AUTO-SAN ANDREAS-MAPTM features an extensive range of different weapons: pistols, silenced pistols, semi-automatic pistol, machine pistols (all of which can be carried and fired in both hands at the same time); sub-machine guns, assault rifles, shotguns, sniper rifles and tranquilizer rifles. All have varying degrees of effectiveness (fire rate, accuracy and damage) and ammo clip size. Remember to use the right weapon for the right job; against armored SWAT team personnel you might try to bring something a little more substantial than a pistol to the party. The Training session lets you get used to firing pistols, a sub-machine gun, sniper rifle and a shotgun. 8 9 COVER Joe and the boys will also teach you the importance of using movement and cover -- all that commando shit they talk about in cop school might save your sorry ass from getting shot up. Remember that it's not just you who'll be using effective cover. Cops and SWAT teams are trained in the same way and will also be in cover so you've got to use your brain (if you don't want to see it splattered over the floor). Outflank them, try a shot from the side or behind, or a precise shot to the head. NOTE: See MOVING AROUND & COVER controls, page 5. SIGNATURE MOVE Each of the heist team has his own Signature Move. This can be quite persuasive against cops or guards who won't cooperate. This usually encourages most people, no matter how tough they think they are, to cooperate. When a large weapon is holstered (directional button 1) it will be shown on the character's back. To draw a weapon, press the directional button 1 again. To the right side of the weapon icon are two numbers. The top number is the total number of bullets held in the current clip; the bottom number is the number of bullets you have in reserve. When the top number reaches zero, the weapon is reloaded with the bullets taken from your reserve (if available). tion the ac g pausin It's going to get hot in there when you're in the thick of it and you'll want to take a breather at times. Even the toughest player wants an occasional break in the commotion. · Press the w button to pause the action at any point.
