    Things I'd like to be tweaked

    So far I have had great experience with FC4. Essentially face-lifted and improved FC3, which is fine by me.

    I have played about 6 hours, experimenting and experiencing. I could probably write as long post as this on the improvement and general fun of the game. But there are many things I'd would like to be tweaked a bit, or given a gameplay option to change them to suit your preferences.

    • Random/Karma events are too frequent. Maybe a gameplay option to toggle, how you want it?
    • Animals/predators are too aggressive, or there are too many of them
    • Predators seem to be attracted to gunfights. I think they should run from them and general noise. If the predator feels threatened by the closeness of humans or the gunfight, only then it should attack
    • Bait should not spawn predators. It should only attract existing animals. Outpost clearing way too easy with bait, at least at the beginning of the game
    • Eagles can kill NPC in two attacks. How can anyone live there
    • At least honey badgers take too many bullets to kill, or the hitbox is bad
    • Option to hide Karma event infos altogether. I just want to find them by listening or by accident.


    There are locations where the random events are freaking constant annoyance. And at one point I was chasing a truck (random event) and at the same time I was told to assasinate some army dude (Karma event), and ten seconds later there was another gunfight near me. Toooo much. FC3 could have used a bit more of these, than there was, but FC4 takes this way too far.

    IMO in FC3 the animals were just fine, you could avoid predators by being careful. Only sometimes they managed to surprise you. In FC4 it feels like they are attracted to you, or they spawn too near you. I don't know what has changed, I just don't like it But I do love the various interactions the animals have, great!

    I'm playing on hard difficulty. Maybe it has something to do with my experience.

    Speak for yourself. Karma/Random events make the world more populated. You don't have to do the event if you don't want to...just walk/drive/fly away...
    Complaining about aggressive animals...seriously?
    Other than an occasional eagle I haven't had too many issues with the animals. I find you can sneak/run by most of the time without any real issue.
    Haven't had any issue with bait. If you find the game too easy because of bait...don't select it and press the button to use it.
