How to get to cover on GTA 5
Getting to cover in GTA 5 is super easy! All you need to do is press the Q key on your keyboard if you're playing on PC, or the R1 button if you're on PlayStation, or the RB button if you're on Xbox. Just make sure you're close to an object that can act as cover, like a wall or a car. This will make your character take cover behind it, keeping you safe from enemy fire.

Just run towards any object and smack that cover button! Works like a charm every time. Remember, it's Q on PC, R1 on PlayStation, and RB on Xbox. Stay safe out there in Los Santos!
Nah, just run in guns blazing. Who needs cover?
I remember the first time trying to figure this out and kept getting wasted. It's actually super simple: Q on PC, R1 on PS, and RB on Xbox. Find anything that looks like you can hide behind it, press the button, and voila, you're not getting shot at (as much).
