What if you had to store rifles and gear in your vehicle?

I've always found it funny that GTA characters can carry a small armory in their pockets. A vehicle trunk used for larger weapons could make planning a getaway more interesting.

Question is whether it adds strategy or just extra menu clicks. Would you want that restriction in story mode?

It could work if weapon switching is fast and contextual. Losing access to a rifle when you abandon your car creates an interesting choice.

dont make me inventory manage during a car chase please

Maybe make it part of higher-difficulty settings. The player who just wants action shouldn't need to visit the trunk before every mission.

I'd be fine carrying a sidearm normally and having an optional loadout at the car. Could even tie into stealth and how NPCs react.

The important thing is that it changes gameplay, not just adds chores. I'd test it both ways.
