Honestly, just running and gunning is more fun. Who needs cover?!
Taking cover in GTA 5 is super easy and a total game-changer once you get the hang of it. All you gotta do is press the Q key on your PC, the R1 button on PS4/PS5, or the RB button on Xbox One/Xbox Series X/S. This will make your character stick to the nearest wall or object that can serve as cover. Remember, choosing the right spot to take cover can literally save your character's life, especially during those intense shootouts!
