I have 2 Agents. My main, level 40, post-WONY toon, and my level 30, WT5 toon. The open world is so much more fun on my level 30 WT5 Agent than on my WONY Agent. The reason for this is that the level 30 players still get to enjoy the Dynamic Control Points / Faction War system that the game launched with. Enemy AND Friendly factions are constantly going at it, attacking each other's territory, causing mayhem and making your map change colors without your input. Meanwhile us WONY players have a completely green map... I feel punished for buying Warlords, because now I have two dead, green maps to look at in D.C. and NYC for my main Agent. If I want a fun world to play in, I have to play on my level 30 character who obviously cannot use any of the WONY content...
Yes, I am aware that you can manually reset the control points back to red, but that is not satisfying or interesting to me at all. It's a serious downgrade from a feature that was very unique to open world looter shooter games. Why do the level 30 players get to have all of the fun? If it's a programming issue with the seasonal/manhunt features, then trust me I'd much rather have an ever-changing dynamic map than a static Manhunt system that only changes once every 3 months. Please either reintroduce the dynamic map for WONY players, or at least give us a toggle to turn it on just like we have for resetting CPs and global directives, etc. I just want to be able to play with my main level 40 Agent in a dynamic D.C. again.
Chime in down below if you agree.
You can reset all the CP's by changing World difficulty. All of your map will go completely red whenever you change difficulty. You can keep CP's that you like and are convenient for fast travel captured without worrying they might get hostile again after 20 minutes. I think it's better what we have now and the world is still pretty dynamic even so.
Edit: Didn't read fully at first that you are aware of the reset option. I am rather confused that you'd rather have your world stay all green, because you don't want to use the option to reset it, but that's me. Anyhow, like I already said I think it's better this way. Thing is players are pretty divided on that subject (like anything else) and some like it others not. I don't think they will go back how things were pre-WONY however, so your best bet is to keep 30 lvl agent if you like the old system better for playing Open World.
Thanks for the reply. I am aware that some players prefer to have green maps and I respect that, that's why I think the ideal option is to make it a toggle similar to a directive or difficulty setting. Options are good, right? Best of both worlds.
In its current, dead state, the post-WONY Open World really hampers my enjoyment and desire to play. It feels wrong to have to play on my gimped level 30 character in order to have a fun world to play around in (again, this dynamic faction war is how the game was designed originally, because of complaints of dead maps in Division 1...).
