In The Lost and Damned, the helicopters' top speed is increased and the minigun ammunition is replaced by highly explosive cartridges that make mince meat out of pedestrians, cars, motorcycles, and even other helicopters and boats. This is probably to prevent helicopter pilots from being able to literally shred players and vehicles. Both fire normal 7.62×51 millimeter cartridges, but the Annihilator fires about 1,000 rounds per minute, which is unrealistically slow, by about 5,000 rounds per minute. Miniguns are also mounted on Annihilator and Buzzard helicopters. By using the remaining data in-game, it appears to carry a 750-bullet load and to be able to kill any person (armored or not) with one shot, making it the most powerful weapon in the game. Also, the minigun in GTA Chinatown Wars is powerful enough to split a person in half if shot at a pedestrian.įor GTA IV, the minigun was planned to be the second heavy weapon, the first one being the rocket launcher, but it was dropped in the end, due to unknown reasons. In GTA Chinatown Wars, it is the most expensive weapon in the game, costing $10,000 from Ammu-Nation. GTA Advance and Chinatown Wars also feature the minigun as an available weapon. In GTA Liberty City Stories and Vice City Stories, the player can both lock onto a target and shoot manually with the minigun. It is almost 100% accurate as there is no recoil, but it can't lock on to a target which isn't much of a problem due to the very high power of each individual round and the amount of ammo it carries. In GTA San Andreas, thanks to the new aiming system, it is possible to aim the minigun in any direction, making shooting higher targets much easier, but also dangerous if the target aircraft may explode and fall on the player. Instead, it shoots upwards automatically to e.g. In Vice City, the minigun mows down targets level with the player however, it is impossible to aim manually. It has an incredible rate of fire and can annihilate most vehicles in almost less than a second around a certain radius.
