GTA 5: What is the chaos mod, and what does it do?

The chaos mod has been made popular by GTA YouTubers like DarkViperAU and Hazardous, among others. As the name suggests, sowing chaos is its primary purpose.

The mod adds a new random effect every 30 seconds. These effects are completely insane, such as spawning a vehicle over the player during a mission cutscene. Some of these effects are timed and will last 90 seconds, while others will only happen once.

The effects added by the mod may sometimes seem to be a cheat for the game. This is because the GTA franchise has a history of having bizarre and entertaining cheats. Unlike cheats, however, players don't have to activate the effects manually.

Pongo1231 has created chaos Mod V, and it is regularly updated with new effects. Players can download the mod from here. This link will take players to a spreadsheet with all of the currently available effects.

What's the point of using this mod?

Some players may feel that there's no point in downloading a mod that makes the game so difficult to play. However, that is far from the truth. The chaos mod increases the replayability value of GTA 5 as there's always something new that could happen.

Not only do missions feel different, but the bizarre effects change the gameplay experience completely. Some of the effects can be beneficial, like getting Super Run and Super Jump while escaping from the police. There can also be neutral effects that don't alter the gameplay, like a change in weather.

Other effects, such as a hostile clone spawning next to the player, are rather frustrating. Overall, the chaos mod increases the ridiculousness factor of the game considerably. This only results in a much more entertaining experience.
