    What Transfers Into A New Game?

    So I may start a new game because there's nothing left to do int his barren wasteland called Hope County. Arcade has grown old as well. But what does transfer between games exactly and what will not? One thing I'm concerned for is the Live Event rewards like the Vector.

    Hii I've started my 3rd play through now and I can say 100% that the things that do carry over into a new save are as follows;

    - Any silver bars found or purchased
    - Event rewards such as the flame bearer outfit and Vector.
    - Anything purchased with silver, namely the Prestige items.
    - Ubisoft club challenge progress, namely the "Well done" progress I had made didn't reset.

    However the things that don't carry over and get reset are;

    - Perk points and skills unlocked.
    - Money, and items purchased just with cash and not the silver bars.
    - Arcade level and items received, however you can achieve them again.
    - Challenges that reward perk points.
    - Collectibles such as the lighters.
    - Unlocked companions/specialists.

    PS4 here too just FYI, hope that helps

    I cannot speak for ALL here - but I'm running FC5 "Deluxe" version for PS4 - all my Prestige items that came with the deluxe package downloads were there - HOWEVER, the Vector 45acp - which I had to earn the dollars for in the game was GONE WITH THE WIND after the first patch by UBISOFT on 3/27/18 (version 1.02). I got to use it during my first play-thru of the game and ain't seen hide nor hair of it since (which really sucks because it was there originally - I used it in my first play thru of the game).

    Players on PC or X-Box will have to speak for themselves here and nope I don't play ARCADE or Multi-player so I have no knowledge of that either.

    Thanks a bunch for explaining all that. I was wondering the same thing as OP, but couldn't find an answer. Thanks again. 😁

    i have another question, if you restart a new game and you capture outposts do the safes you can find in them have silver bars ? if so this means you can grind for silver bars...

    @420JJ You're welcome, I was curious at first but took a leap of faith ( ) and was pleasantly surprised for once so I can understand people been apprehensive of a fresh start.

    Yes! I've still found silver bars through all play throughs at the safe on top of US auto in Holland Valley and occasionally in others dotted around map I think I'm at 445 silver now, but thats including some of the weekly challenges and live event rewards, not spent a single penny on the real money packs available.

    A similar question, but if I've finished the game and use Outpost Master (effectively continuing, not restarting) do Silver Bars show up in safes again then?

    I've not actually used the outpost master option yet, so for this particular question I can't answer that sorry but I do know they still occasionally spawn with $250 or $500 bundles in safes on a fresh save, if I had to take a guess at percentages I'd estimate like 2 to 3 in 10 safes or something like that.

    Thanks for all the info thus far guys.
    I have a question if I understand above info correct.
    If I make a new game,perks,money,challenges etc are reset.
    I guess that is ok for me atleast(though I would have prefered a NG+),I will try finish most achivement on current gameplay.
    However my main question is does none of the outfits carry on into a new game except for some event outfits?
    Atleast the outfits one unlocked or bought should carry on atleast that is my personal opinion.
