Vehicular Combat: Difference between revisions
I clearly remember this is possible in Vice City too. During a mission or when you recruit bodyguards, they shoot along with you. So, it's included in the original Vice too.
(Replaced the GTA IV drive-by picture that was missing.) |

Prior to [[Grand Theft Auto IV]], players must have any [[Sub Machine Gun|sub-machine gun]] in hand in order to perform drive by shooting. While in a vehicle, the player may look left or right to view the target and take aim, then fire their weapon, discharging bullets to the target. | Prior to [[Grand Theft Auto IV]], players must have any [[Sub Machine Gun|sub-machine gun]] in hand in order to perform drive by shooting.

The aforementioned concept has remained the same between GTA III and [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories]], but underwent several changes. From [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City]] onwards, players are also allowed to shoot forward while on a motorbike or bicycle, which is usually far more effective than conventional drive-by shooting in cars due to the player being able to watch the road ''and'' shoot at a target at the same time; "drive-by" shooting on boats are made possible. Additionally, in [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories]], the protagonist is able to shoot forward while driving the [[jetski]]. [[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas]] and GTA Vice City Stories allow for non-player passengers of a car to perform drive-by shooting, shooting with [[pistol]]s or sub-machine guns; however, the effectiveness of this feature is dependent on how close the car is to targets. | The aforementioned concept has remained the same between GTA III and [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories]], but underwent several changes.
