    Replay Any Mission Any Time

    It would be nice to have a logbook/diary of all the completed missions (main story and side missions) that are usually no longer available once completed and whenever you like you could call one up to replay it. It would probably have to occur in 1 of 2 ways:

    1. Rewind the game and progress to that point in time including skills, etc... If I remember Dying Light did this.
    OR
    2. Just let us replay any mission any time but disable accumulating more XP/Skill points to avoid farming and becoming overpowered early game.

    I personally would probably prefer the second option to just replay any mission any time with no extra XP accumulated, there are always certain missions I want to redo without having to start a new game.

    Yeah I agree, there was this one mission in Far Cry 3 called Piece of the Past that I really love, but I would have to make a new game save to play it again. So a logbook with missions you have already completed that allow you to replay them would be great.

    I liked the mission in FC3 where you had to get the knife for Buck, split into sections I think - also some of the missions in FC4 I would like to play again but once done you cant (one of the Hurk ones was great)

    An option to select them again is a nice thought.

    Yeah, basically all open world games should have a feature like this. There are almost always specific missions that are standouts from the rest, and the ability to replay them on demand would be great.

    +1 on this idea. It'd be a welcome change in the endgame gameplay.

    Hold up. What if, what if each time you played the mission an extra time, you get rated on your gameplay. So like if I do it stealthy I get a rating for that. And perhaps a small reward for it?

    What sorts of ratings and what sorts of rewards? I would say the reward should be desirable but not so good that people would just grind easy missions stock on a reward, and replays of missions should not reward or at least greatly reduce XP gain so people don't grind to level up quicker. Maybe a 5 star rating for stealth or rambo styles? With rewards appropriate to those playstyles, though what small rewards those could take the form of I can't really think of any....

    I agree. Although FC4 had the outpost master where we could replay those seiges; I would also like to be able to replay a mission. I think a journal of the missions and outposts is a good iea.
