Ok,so i was doing alittle exploring around GTA and i hungout with trevor as franklin and start doing some drive bys on ballas and vagos and such and Trevor all the time hes in the car doing drive bys with my only had a Mini Uzi but when we run around shooting at them he had a M4 Shotgun and etc. So i guessing they limited the Drive by guns like in GTA SA.

The idea of a passenger using an automatic rifle for drive-bys would be pretty fun. But it would be pretty OP considering they are more accurate and more deadly damage wise. If they implemented something like that online they would need to do a clean sweep: Sitting on the door and roof to balance themselves while shooting the shotgun or A-R. This way they can be more exposed for using more potent weapons.

 

Like so..

 

 

But to answer your question, no; No passenger can use A-Rs or shotties as a weapon source for a drive-by.

I would hope there arnt to many restrictions for the person in the passenger seat.

The only restrictions is that you can't use guns that require two hands- but that's in single player, We'll see about online in 2 days, but I almost guarantee that being able to use A-Rs and shottys and what not would not be allowed. You can use C-4s an grenades as well as with the pistol and smg.

Wouldn't be to sure about that, they might have used a simple code for the ai so they were limited to those weapons regardless of if they were driving or in the passenger seat.

 

I find it unlikely that they wouldnt allow us to use assault rifles and shotguns from the passenger seat..

Well, It hasn't been implemented into the single player.... That alone says 10 tons of what to expect in Online, but like I said- we'll see.

I think the passenger will be able to use the sawed off shotgun for drive bys. I do it while I'm driving so I don't see why they wouldn't

I guess if it's in a pickup truck or something bigger we can us two handed weapons.

when the truck moves they will fall off

[bloodblossom]

not really lol.. in singleplayer characters can sit in the back of the truck and only fall off if you swerve too much i could see big 2 handed guns being uses both in trucks vans and helis... i mean the police use snipers from helis so why not... vans and trucks have enough room in the back to use 2h guns. but using rifles from inside vehicles doesnt make sense... firing a rocket or something from the back of a truck/van makes more sense (and is done alot in action movies)

On snap, Nice find dude. I thought for minute that trucks load department wasn't going to allow a cover system... This is f*cking awesome!

No they won't. 
There is a screenshot of a pickup truck driving full speed with 2 or 3 people with weapons in the back.
