For example, shooting at either the driver or passenger side windows and breaking them allows you to enter the car as normal. While this sounds counter intuitive, there are some benefits. However, you do have the added risk of police officers and gangsters seeing you who will become hostile in their own ways. For example, when wielding a two handed weapon such as a shotgun, the player character will use the butt stock of the gun and break the glass in a single hit, unlike sidearms and your elbows which take two hits, thus making it much more effective to pull out a longarm.

The first (and only) tactic you are properly shown comes in chapter two in the form of lockpicking which allows you to quietly break into cars and slip away without drawing much attention to yourself.
