TRANEMing Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 Been playing GTA 5 since the first day it came out(not all the time of course, just around 400h) Playing SP is fun, but once u hit 4 or 5 stars, the police force just become so nasty that u cant evade easily unless u pay $5000 to the hospital. Attempting or holding a 5 stars wanted level is not so difficult (as long as u find a place with only one way to enter and a lot of bullets,such as the police station in Downtown or the subway entrance), but the real challenge is how to evade the wanted level alive. Like in GTA4 subway is a good place to go, as long as u make it to the undergound. But if I am in the desert I will stick to the railway and jump on the train cart and take cover when it comes and shoot down any helis if necessary. So how can u evade a 4 or 5 stars wanted?.... theGTAking101 1 Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/695406-how-can-u-evade-a-4-or-5-stars-wanted/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vanto Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 Probably, it's impossible to escape a 4/5 stars wanted level alive without entering the subway, hiding or jumping on the train. theGTAking101 1 Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/695406-how-can-u-evade-a-4-or-5-stars-wanted/#findComment-1065030603 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lethal Vaccine Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 Lol ^^^ Don't forget the sewers, as well. But I agree. I'd love to see a Youtube video of someone escaping 4 and 5 stars WITHOUT entering a tunnel, underground with the Subway, or going into the sewers. I see it as impossible as well... ten-a-penny and theGTAking101 2 Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/695406-how-can-u-evade-a-4-or-5-stars-wanted/#findComment-1065030621 Share on other sites More sharing options...
LawasDS Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 You can do that by being SUPER FAST with a car and getting out side for a few seconds, running fast to a more or less hidden back street and hiding behind a big wall (preventing yourself from being seen from the road) That worked a few times for me even in the hardest levels. But remember GTA V has MAGIC POLICE so some times you will be found even if you get the finest coverage ever. What I use to do its just drive around real fast and go into a LSC when I get out of sight.

Pretty much...However, you CAN shake ONE helicopter being out in the open on 3 stars. I did this the other day. Was just cruising around in my Infernus by the Kortz Center in the mountains going off road and destroying myself and my car, lol, but the helicopter that was on me eventually vanished after shooting at me and following me for 3-5 minutes (real life time) and then I just stayed put where I was and the 3 stars went away. Maybe I will try what I did with 4 or 5, but I highly doubt it can be done when you're out in the open and not underground or hiding under something. If you're lucky enough, you can evade a 5 star in a multi storey car park. I'd believe that is "possible" but not probable. And even this has a roof over your head so no helicopters can shoot you and "see" you.

WildBrick142 Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 I escaped 5 stars two times. Both were on the Loud version of The Big Score. First time I miraculously lost them by hiding in a bush. The second time I used Franklin's ability to quickly drive onto the multistory carpark next to the UD and lost them after a while.

DFur4M Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 You can save i guess, i used to escape 1 star by saving, dont know why it wouldnt work with 5. Another thing that maybe would let you escape is huffing gas. While playing by trevor, you can huff gas when the police is chasing you, this will cause you to spawn somewhere else, you will still have the stars but maybe the police wont have you on their radar and you can hide in plain sight?

I did that before, but u need to be very lucky...I got a 5 stars in the mission where Michael followed Molly to the airport (no idea why I killed so many cops in that misson.),and when my car crushed at one of the entrances near the car park I thought I was done, but I hid for a few seconds and got on a new car in the car park when the cops couldnt see me, and the wanted level was gone before any cops made my car on the top floor.

RyanBurnsRed Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 I escaped 5 stars two times. Both were on the Loud version of The Big Score. First time I miraculously lost them by hiding in a bush. The second time I used Franklin's ability to quickly drive onto the multistory carpark next to the UD and lost them after a while. That's what I'm saying. Both cops and enemies spawn on the roads. They'll spawn in front of you or behind you on major and minor roads anywhere on the map. Usually if I'm not in the city and I get a 4 star wanted level, I drive up the side of a mountain or something and find a bush to hide. It will take the cops awhile to run up the mountain, and the helicopters won't spot me from above. If I'm in the city it's just a matter of getting some distance and finding a spot to hide. Usually it just ends up being a game of cat and mouse then. It's extremely annoying that when driving away from the cops on a road they'll spawn right in front of my face the moment the stars turn gray. Or even when the nearest cop car is at least a mile away while I'm on foot and the stars are grayed out, then the moment I come out of my hiding place or whatever, I get spotted somehow and the stars turn white again. The thing about this game and a lot of other games, is that the AI is omniscient. It's like in some games they're either dumb as rocks, or can accurately shoot you from 900 meters away with a submachine gun or pistol in a speeding car while weaving through traffic. There needs to be a middle ground, and so far I've yet to play a game that meets that middle ground.

That 5 stars in The Big Score is much easier to evade than in free roam, if u drive for a while in that mission, there's only one or no heli on ur way, just shake the cop cars u will be fine and the cop cars respown much less.

Strength Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 I had a topic not a while ago here that shows how to survive some extreme cops encounters on foot and free aim and methods on how to evade 5 stars completely, but I guess people did not recognize it and only few showed some support and appreciation (Militia I am looking at you ). I have a few new videos in production that are almost finished (and around 20 more episodes with a same theme and different ways and methods) and ready for uploading, that shows how to evade 5 (IV, III) stars on foot without using the easy way. Tunnels, trains or hiding. There are plenty of ways to go around and evade the stars in open. You only need to figure them out or check out some of my stuff and get the idea.

DFur4M Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 You can get high with the gas outside of trevor´s trailer. Only trevor can do it. That will make you spawn somewhere else with the wanted level still on you. I just havent checked it with 4 or 5 stars to see if you are not in their radar when you spawn.

People don't usually look into topics such as those cuz in my eyes, too many people complain over cops period and just cry instead of looking at things that actually would help them, like your topics. There's been a debate since September over in the GAMEPLAY area of the forum about the cops being too difficult. I replied in there at least 40-50 times, yet, you'll have some guy reply and whine over how hard the system is.

This is lightyears easier than on the ground, though. Nah, only the Lazer, Mallard, Luxor/Shamal, and I'm sure the Vestra (though I haven't tried it,) can, the other prop planes aren't fast enough. I've also never tried "The Jet" but I assume with jet engines it can probably do it too. It might also matter how you acquire the stars though, like jumping in the Cuban, Mammatus, and Velum while already having the wanted level and trying to escape will lead to you getting shot down. Flying over the prison with them while well into flight to get the wanted level might see you get away as you would have a head start. It's no guarantee though just a possibility. Also, on 3 stars the helicopter will get called back "to refuel" after a certain time period, and will rejoin again if the chase goes on long enough, (but it usually doesn't because that's your chance lol), so if you are in a place where only the chopper can see/get to you eventually it will leave and the stars will blink and disappear. Which is why 4-5 stars is a different league because there will always be at least one, usually two, and even 3 is possible on 5 stars if you're somewhere the ground troops can't get you, like in the water.

PineboxFiller Posted March 23, 2014 Share Posted March 23, 2014 (edited) There are other places that can lose 4, and some 5, that aren't the train tunnels or sewers. But if you are talking about without any terrain use at all, and not counting planes, there are only two ways pretty much. With 4 stars you can lose them in a fast enough boat. You can outrun the helicopters eventually, and you could probably do it on land too if it wasn't for the fact that there is nearly nowhere that the police can't spawn on land, but in the water their boats are a lot slower and easier to avoid. So just keep dodging the boats that appear on the map, and gun it with a fast enough boat to eventually lose the choppers, and it is possible to escape. I'm not sure if this is possible with 5 though as you would most likely have 3 choppers chasing you. The other way is to lose them long enough to switch vehicles to black out your triangle on the HUD, so they "don't know where you are" and then you just have to make sure to not directly face them in your car from up close. That's pretty much the only "clean" way to do it without terrain, but even then you almost have to make use of it a little so you're not seen switching cars, which is damn near impossible without making some use of cover so you aren't seen by the helicopters. Edit: Sorry for double post, wasn't suppose to be.

I tried huffing gas while on a 4 star wanted level. Trevor passed out as usual & re-spawned at the juice stand near the observatory. Still had 4 stars & was surprisingly still in the police radar. Now i was stuck out in the open with no vehicles nearby. Needless to say, I only lasted a few more seconds before the chopper snipers got me. In Patricia's voice, "Gasolina! No!"
