Sticky Bomb In GTA 5


Sticky Bombs are throwable explosives in GTA V that stick to the surface they are thrown at and then can be detonated using a remote. The sticky bomb is unlocked after completing the mission Friends Reunited and can then be purchased from Ammu-Nation. This weapon is very useful to take out targets fleeing in vehicles and during heists while entering buildings.

Design and Performance


The sticky bomb is designed with two M112 C-4 explosive sticks with a remote-controlled timer taped to it. There is a small red light on it that helps locate it even from a distance. It emits a steady beeping sound.


(The Sticky Bomb in first person perspective in the Enhanced Version of GTA V)


The sticky bomb is an extremely useful weapon for taking out vehicles. It is used to break open doorways at some points in the game, but can also be used in a more efficient way to take out targets fleeing in vehicles. The sticky bomb can be used in a drive-by and makes the task easier. The player has to be careful with not getting caught in the blast radius and should create enough space between the bomb and themselves before detonating the bomb. 20 bombs can be placed at a time before detonating them. When the limit is reached, a message appears on the screen indicating this, and the first one disappears when the 21st is placed. Sticky Bombs explode on being shot at and also when rammed into by a vehicle when placed on a vertical surface.

Trivia


  1. When equipped, the Sticky Bomb will have four different readings on the device screen, which are:
  2. 88:88
  3. SAFE
  4. ARMED
  5. BOMB
  6. In the last-gen versions, if the player chooses the "Fire Crew" option for The Bureau Raid, Michael will have to plant incendiary bombs. These bombs are vertically stretched versions of the TBoGT Sticky Bomb. In the enhanced versions, the model was changed to their own model used throughout the game.
  7. In The Ballad of Gay Tony, when the player throws sticky bombs into a cover, the character pulls an invisible pin as with a grenade. This is due to reused animations for thrown weapons.
