Health and armor
|
You can find health and armor indicator in the left, bottom corner of head up display. It’s the bar around the GPS and map. The green one shows Niko’s health, and the blue one – his armor. |
|
|
You have several way to immediatelly regain your health: eat something, use a medkit, or call 911 – then select ambulance (dial 911 and select 2).
|
Armor can be obtained in a gun shop, or be found on the streets of Liberty City (especially during missions). It provides you protection against firearms and cannot protect you from, for example, fall. |
Death
When you die you go to the nearest hospital. You will have to pay for your treatment (the exact sum of money varies) and you will spend in hospital several hours.
Map and GPS

|

|
Additionaly, just after you select your cell, press D-pad up to activate cell’s keyboard. You can dial any number using it. |

Later in game you will be able to take pictures using built-in camera (Camera) – but it’s useful only during missions.
