The Quick Menu here is also known as an ‘Inventory’ option where the players are able to assign emotes to hotkeys, to use to customize their characters and also several other cool customization features in the game.
Additionally, the Quick Menu is one such mechanic where the players frequently use it for the ‘Quick GPS’ to navigate to their destination instead of pausing and choosing a Waypoint from the Map that can be tedious.
Using the Emotes in GTA 5
You can use any emotes that you have in GTA 5, as long as you are on foot. When you are using emote while driving, it will be different. It means that you can only use hand and arm emotes while driving.
In the case of using an emote, it is very satisfying waving at an enemy when you pass them to win the race. If you select an emote from the style menu, it will allow you to pull off an animation while walking around Los Santos, but it will be random during a mission.
However, you can also use other emotes in the game in different situations. It means that you can select a victory emote which your character will use when starting a race, if you manage to finish in pole position.
If you prefer to be unarmed, you can be pretty disrespectful as a passenger in a bunch of vehicles. You just simply hold the control which will allow you to shoot and you will begin flipping people off.
Even though emoting is a hilarious way to celebrate your in-game goal, you need to be careful of players who do not take too kindly to them. Furthermore, you will be able to find yourself on the end of some MKII Oppressor chases.
