    Questions about story progress and enemy respawn?

    Afaik, the game ends when the story ends, right?
    So you can't continue to play with your character forever?

    Is there a way to play the game as long as possible without progressing the story? If I just attack random enemies/factions without being in a mission, do they respawn afterwards?

    Can I clear a region (say the jungle section) so that there are no enemies anymore or will there always be some hostile AI patroling or driving around? And does this depend on whether I have already done all missions in this region?

    No one has played the whole game yet kiddo.. you're asking the question when nobody knows the answer.

    Enemies do respawn.. it was one of our ways to farm xp in the tests and at e3.. Pretty sure you can just free roam into other zones in the retail version without having to continue the story progression.

    As far as I remember there will always be enemy patrols through a zone even if completed. Especially the military AI.. pretty sure they're on their own faction spawning system.

    i was wondering how will the progress work itself, by completing stuff in your friend's room does that carry over to yours? or what happens if your in a room and everyone is doing their own mission? what happens if you let people join your game and they complete stuff on their own? will that count towards your story/game progress because it's in your room?

    Completing missions solo or in a group is the same, if you complete a mission in a group then it's completed for you.

    You will be able to replay missions, if you choose to.

    Did you notice that when they respawn, did they always respawn in the same spots every time/same walking paths or did the NPC's location change a bit during each time they respawned?

    Ex.) NPC guard had starting spot on left side of a car and would walk path and forth 10 meters north then 10 meters back south. You beat the mission and are replaying it but now you notice the NPC has not spawned at the same location near the car...

    For example, if I replay a mission will I know that every time I play "Mission A" during the day the guards will always be in the same location and at night during "Mission A" the guard NPC's will always be in the same locations or will each individual NPC have more varied spawn locations than just 1 location/walking path during the day and 1 location/walking path during the night ?

    This is a question many people have but have not gotten an answer on yet, thanks

    Since NPCs have a life cycle the missions will not be twice the same. But I think you will experience it better yourself rather than just my writed answer on this forum
