I think you should be allowed to at least punch and/or shove people without fear of getting busted. Thats the thing that pissed me off about GTA 4, it seems like EVERY little thing you do, the police automatically know and pursue you. And you should be able to defend yourself by lethal or non lethal force if you didn't start the fight without the fear of the law breathing down your neck. You should also be able to assist police with catching criminals without being arrested, like shooting a running criminal in the leg.
Yeah I don't mind the radial thing but cops should only spawn INSIDE the radial and not magically appear outside just when you're about to escape it. And have a NEVER WANTED cheat code, bc some of us like to wreak havoc without the goddamn police chasing us for every stupid thing, just make it to where it blocks achievements like in RDR.
AND BRING BACK THE GORE, when I shoot someone in the face with a shotgun point blank range I exspect their head to completely burst into bloody pieces
