    Spawn system

    150meters away on the road, a hostage situation by two cars. So I shoot a few bullets at one of the cars. The 2 peggies jump in to drive out and investigate. I'm still undetected. I take cover and lean out quickly to see a new peggie car has spawned 50 meters away and detects me instantly. And so the first two peggies jump out of their car and shoot the hostage worthless Spawn System, Ubisoft. Absolutely worthless.

    It isn't limited to UbiSoft or its development studios only that use these cheap and silly NPC spawn systems. They just can't be bothered to create something that is immersive and leans more towards realism. I always compare it to the way the police spawns in GTA (massively overrated game), whereas you never see one when you drive around. But the moment you kill someone they are all over the place. It's just stupid, and with some games it is like the faster you kill, the more are thrown at you. Absolutely worthless, indeed.

    Yeah and Traders spawn and despawn just as miserably. You see the ugly trader icon, decide to get the sniper rifle you accuired from the tasteless microtransaction currency and move towards her. Suddenly she gets deleted for some hostage situation or a ******g skunk to spawn nearby instead. Pathetic

    One thing about them Disappearing....often they are still there, but if they are in the distance they show on your compass, but when you get closer they drop off the compass and only show in the world...but there is a spot inbetween that they aren't showing up in the world and they also aren't on the compass. If this has happened, you have to continue to move toward where they were, and often the icon for the store will show in the world and you can then go trade.....unless they get killed.
