    Why is it not possible to also reset the random encounters in this game?

    Sure, you can activate "outpost master" and recapture alll the outposts all over again but not the random encounters, and they are so essential to the fun of this game! Without them there is literally nothing to do that involves the cult except liberating outposts. If i remeber correctly this is a feature they included in Farcry 4, so why did they skip it this time? Makes the game unplayable after the main story in my opinion, Ubisoft please do something about this!

    I agree, really wish Ubisoft would acknowledge this request to make random encounters come back. There are tons of threads on this.

    I also agree. Random encounters should also appear after killing lieutenants (also before finishing the game complete). Otherwise it's no fun to walk around, because nothing happens...

    It's indeed possible to do, as it's been done in the previous games. Why it wasn't done in 5 is the question. It's not because it isn't possible.

    The answer might have to do with how this release is structured in tits very nature of forcing a player to rush thru the campaign as compared to the others, as well as how Ubisoft hopes to keep the "game alive" once that first time thru is done.

    I agree with you folks. The world is essentially dead unless you start a new game which I have absolutely zero interest in doing mainly due to the horrible forced capture sequences.

    No problem with this being introduced as an option, but I’ve absolutely no desire to encounter roadside peggies every 10 yards. I’m glad they’re gone, so I ask that this feature is offered as an option and not forced on everyone.

    Driving around Hope County is now a relaxing pleasure. Whereas before I simply didn’t do it.

    I too would like to see the option to activate the random encounters. It would allow those that want to do battle to get their adrenalin rush, and allow those that want to peacefully roam the world to relax on that "Sunday drive". Being open world is all about options in my opinion.

    I personally would activate the random encounters because now that I have all the skill perks and weapons I need to be successful, it is fun to randomly go against the enemy. Also, I need to complete the Saboteur challenge, and it is a bit difficult with little to no cultist vehicles to sabotage.

    Really need to be able to reset resistance levels to keep the "Far Cry Moments" happening in liberated regions. That or a simple new game plus.

    Consider it acknowledged. This and similar requests have been heard loud and clear, but we have no news to share at this time. But we are working with a bunch of feedback you guys have given us and weighing up what's possible.

    Thanks for the suggestions, people, and feel free to keep them coming!
