As previously mentioned, raiding gang hideouts is a great way to find treasure maps. However, players shouldn't just bolt straight for the leader as soon as they arrive - they should scour it from top to bottom.

Yes, looting corpses isn't half as profitable as it in the single player (you fetch a measly couple of cents with each press of your button), but when in Rome, you may as well help yourself to their belongings.

It really is just a case of not doing it making a lot less sense that setting aside a couple of extra seconds to scour some corpses. It replenishes your ammo and, seeing as how you went to the trouble of killing them anyway, you should just go ahead and loot them anyway.

Content Producer/Presenter

WhatCulture's very own resident movie guy, Ewan has been working in the content creation biz for over 10 years now, having started as a freelance contributor to WhatCulture Gaming all the way back in 2015. After graduating with a First-Class Honours in History from Northumbria University in 2017 (where he won a prize for a totally killer dissertation on the Watergate years), Ewan took on the role of Comics Editor at WhatCulture and quickly developed WhatCulture Comics into one of the biggest superhero-focused channels on YouTube. He followed this with a brief hiatus at Screen Rant in 2021, where he worked across the Gaming and Film sections as a writer and editor, before returning to WhatCulture as a Senior Content Producer / Presenter in 2023. He started his own podcast, We Love Dad Movies, in 2022, and has contributed several written pieces to the Eisner-nominated comics website Shelfdust as well. In his current role, Ewan incorporates his love of cinema, comic books, and history into written pieces and video essays for WhatCulture's Film & TV channel, as well as WhatCulture Gaming and WhatCulture Horror, with a particular focus on nineties-era Dad Movies, old school Westerns, and Golden Age Hollywood Noir. John Carpenter is his fave, and he thinks Batman Beyond should never have been cancelled. If that's your vibe, you'll probably like his stuff.
