Stealing And Carjacking

  • The system of stealing PARKED cars is more complex and involves breaking the window, and hotwiring the engine before you can drive it. While hotwiring, Niko may also become suspicious, taking a moment to glance around, then going back to wiring the car.
  • Rockstar promised us that other cars would prove far more difficult to penetrate and that the police would be far savvier when it came to spotting stolen vehicles. Broken windows will get you noticed in Liberty City.
  • Four different ways of jacking a vehicle.
How They Will Drive

  • The camera angle in a car is closer, to show more of the detail in the car.
  • The cars will bend and curve with the weight of the vehicle when turning around a corner and will handle potholes with their suspensions.
  • All vehicles have new physics.
  • The envioronment when drivng cars is affected.
  • You can actually feel a cars bass and sound when you are walking down the street.
  • Weather will affect a cars handling.
  • You will be able to open/close your windows and to look outside of the car.
Misc.

  • There will be no planes, but helicopters are included.
  • Public transportation takes a bigger role.
  • Don't expect the more fantastical elements from past GTA's such as bikes and jet packs.
  • You can leave the ingnition turned on , so that when you leave the car the radio continues playing.
  • Helicopters have the ability to land on almost every building.
  • You can open the trunk and store items in there.
  • The Admiral will be in this game.
  • Niko can use taxis to get around (presumably he can use the phone to call a taxi). The police are much more vigilant in GTA IV, and sometimes it is less hassle using a taxi than jacking someone's car. The trip-skip option is available for convenience.
  • The comet is in the game.
  • On the street of LC, the reporters saw - Ferrari, Volkswagen Jetta, BMWs, Mustangs, delivery vans, SUV's, garbage truck.
What We Think:

  • You may be able to use the bus system like you did the train in GTA3.
  • Trolleys may be used as transportation.
