How do you recruit gang members in gta 5?

Answer 1

For CJ to recruit a gang member: press the directional pad up, at the same time you are targeting that member (as if CJ was going to aim a gun, but he won't have the gun in his hand). Depending on the respect level that CJ has, he can recruit up to 7 members of his gang at a time. To transport the homies around, CJ obviously needs to find a vehicle to accommodate them all. So if he was lucky enough to have 7 guys, he would need something like a bus, whereas a car would take say 2, 3 or 4 homies.

Pressing the directional pad up, will see the recruits follow CJ. Pressing the directional pad down, will see them stay where they are until further notice. To dismiss the recruits, press the directional pad down for a couple of seconds, or just let CJ walk away from them.

Respect Levels and Number of Recruits Possible:

Above 1% = 2

Above 10% = 3

Above 20% = 4

Above 40% = 5

Above 60% = 6

Above 80% = 7

Answer 2
