Carrying and storing guns

"Long guns are no longer treated as invisible," Rob Nelson told Famitsu. Rifles live in your personal vehicle's trunk or the locker at any Ammu-Nation.

The Ultimate Edition adds personalised variants of Jason's Girardi ES9 and Lucia's Klose K17, plus the Hawk & Little Morgan revolvers with palm-tree grips.

Unnamed guns are listed by their real-world look ("MAC-11 type") until Rockstar names them.

On foot you carry two one-handed and two two-handed weapons, plus a melee slot, a gadget slot and a throwable. Everything else stays in the trunk of your personal vehicle.

Guns you drop are not lost: owned weapons always return to your vehicle's trunk or the Ammu-Nation armory. Some Ammu-Nation stores sell guns found nowhere else, and there are more weapon customisations than ever.

Auto lock-on aiming is gone, replaced by aim assist. Hit markers tell you the result: white for a hit, yellow for an enemy who is down and no longer a threat, red for a kill.

Focus slows time and highlights weak points: red areas are lethal, yellow are not. On vehicles it shows tires, the engine block and the fuel tank.
