Has anyone noticed that if your hat falls off in an action sequence, and it falls to a place you can get to you can either keep your hat on or off depending on whether you go get your hat or not?  And in one instance your partner's hat gets knocked off and if he doesn't go pick it up, he keeps it off for a while too?


Anyone notice this?

I thought it was pretty hilarious that you will actually scoop up your hat if it falls off. I guess that hat shootin' technology from Red Dead Redemption paid off.

You mean while still in the middle of an action sequence? I pretty much always lose it during the fisticuffs, but I never bothered to try and put it back on. Plus once the fight was over Cole usually had his hat respawned back to his head. Your partner would lose it a lot more because of the car chases and him poking his head out, and would keep it off until the end of the sequence, but he too would also always have it re-equiped afterwards. Least that's how its always been for me.

After the first fist fight I lost my hat, after the fight was over just for shits n giggles I walked over to it with the intention to press X and see if he would pick it up, before I got there however he scooped it up and put it back on his head.

It is a 12 dollar hat after all.

Also I have to add how fucking awesome it was when you went incognito. This game is pretty damn good.

Without your hat the case cannot be solved!

The hat is my favorite character in the game.

I meant more like when you're in a gun fight you break cover to go pick up your hat.  But yeah- love the fucking hat.

Yeah when I was traversing the public library I dropped my hat when I fell of one of the boards. I walked over just to see if he would pick it up and DAMN! He did. 

Ok, you might have have convinced me to pick this game up. This attention to detail must be rewarded.

This game is the first to have actual hat physics. I'll let you sit there and imagine the implications

Hey guys, if you both lose your hats you can pick up your partners and wear his.

Did anybody else feel like you could definitely pick your hat up when you saw the quick look before it was released?

I must have been screaming for 5 minutes because Brad didn't walk over to check if he could pick it up, how can he live with himself?

On a serious note, all of the hats look like they're one or two sizes too big for the character heads.

I lost my hat climbing up the library roof.

I lost it about four times because I am horrible at that balancing business. I went back for it each time.The fourth time, it fell onto an unreachable platform. So I re-loaded.

Yup.

All of the heads look one size too big for their bodies too.

I always freak out and run to the hat to pick it up when it comes off, i don't know why.. i just do.

I, like the rest of you, have a mad strange attachment to the hat.  The fact that you can put them back on after fights (or during in my case) is damn GOTY material!
 
I was most impressed though when my partner and I (I think it was with Roy) were car chasing some goons, and said partner sticks his head out to start shooting and loses his hat to the wind.  I had to stop playing after that.  Mind was blown out my ass.  Hats rule.
