Outposts Stealth approach sometimes not possible thanks to incapable Level Designers
Ok , so iam approaching Kyra Tea Weigh Station . The first outpost of the open world to the right of the very first outpost you liberated for amita . So iam sneaking , into the bushes , i want this outpost undetected ( as always ) . What the hell ? A guard is screaming , WTF ? Noone saw me whats happening here . Great , a elephant is charging the outpost and i did nothing to make this happening . Stealth run ruined , the guards are on edge and detected me .....
Lets analyze why this happend !
1. The placements of the elephants near outposts are nothing but stupid and made by a guy who just placed them and spend no second thougth about the actuall placements he made and what they could cause . They are placed near the main roads to make sure that even the bloodyest noob sees them and there is where the problem starts . As soon as a vehicle like a supply truck is approaching the elephant gets angry and chases the vehicle into the outpost ......
Well ok , i guess that was just a thing wich happens once and never again so lets continue .
Rochan Co. Shipping Outpost .
Same approach , as always i want that outpost undetected . Throwing knife Headshot to takedown to knife throw takedown , things are going well , noone saw me , then suddenly the same stupid **** happens again . A elephant wich is placed directly to a road was made angry because of a vehicle driving by again and now is attacking the outpost and of course ..... my stealth run is over again .
Removing such problems would be so easy . Just put the elephant a few meters more away from the main roads so they dont get angry by passing vehicles and give the players the ability to stealth through this .
Also make a mission zone around the Outpost like you did in the quests so that when you enter it and fail , because of the stupid animal placements or whatever by ubisoft generated bug happens during the liberation you can simply press ESC and can restart it . In addition to the opportunity to press ESC and restart it the mission zone makes cars from the golden path drive away and not drive right into the f****** outpost to again destroy your stealth approach AGAIN .....
You should maybe get some propper gamers in your boat wich can give you reasonable feedback to make the actuall gameplay experience better . Stop inviting those youtuber´s with maybee high subscribers but no skills at all . You should realize that those aren´t far cry players and their feedback ( if the even give feedback ) is worth a wet fart . You know what they do after they made their play through of far cry 4 for their channel ? They never touch the game again . Invite players to test play your game wich are addicted to the far cry franchise and know about its game mechanics . This would be one way to make your game better instead of adding youtubers with high subscribers with no skills or understandment of far cry game mechanics .
Dont get me wrong , iam still in love with far cry 4 but those are such things where iam asking myself if anyone ever thinks twice about what they are doing interms of game mechanics / level design .
