2. The Missions Are Multi-Faceted & Incredible
Of course, one of the main features of any Grand Theft Auto game is the missions, which are used to progress the narrative, make your character rich, and rack up the good old body count. Missions in GTA V are mind blowing, from the planning stage through to the execution, they've never felt so multi-faceted and layered before. On one job, for instance, one option has you masquerading as a janitor to infiltrate a building before planting bombs, then detonating the bombs and entering the building with your crew disguised as firefighters. Missions have come a long way from being told what to do and how to do it - now, you can plan out even the most minute of details prior to going in, from the crew members you hire through to where you're going to hide your get-away vehicle. GTA V is an elaborate game packed with sequences that involve prep work. Where once you may have gone in all guns blazing, now, you can try to work out a tactical advantage before doing things. This might mean you needing to acquire equipment ahead of time, and making the necessary arrangements before youre ready to pull off the job, but when you do pull off the job, you end up getting a much more rewarding feeling at the end of it.
