FC4 is an amazing game to begin with but it could be better if players had to defend their outposts or risk losing them.
How it should work
1. "A nearby outpost is under attack"
2. either Ignore the outpost(chances are the golden path defenses may be able to handle the situation but chances would be slim, or you fight to keep what's yours.
3. Lose your outpost
should you choose to ignore the reponse or fail to defend your outpost you'd receive a message saying "You failed to defend the outpost; pagan's men have retaken the outpost"
what we have now is
1. "A nearby outpost is under attack"
2. relax and not give a ****, your outposts can not be retaken.
I have never had anything hinting me that outposts are under attack or anything and im missing that one skill that needs pagans wrath thingys or something destoroyed (the skill after vehicle takedown) This game is sometimes so glitchy or am I doing something wrong? Thanks already if someone bothers to answer
@ Dement,
Depends how far you are into the game, but fairly early on outposts being attacked after being taken is a common occurrence.
@Luke,
I think better yet have it as an option you can toggle on or off in the menu as to whether outposts can be lost after taking them. There's a LOT to do in this game, which involves a LOT of running back and forth. Many players would likely be upset if they had to engage in outpost power struggles, esp as often as outposts are attacked after taking them.
A third option would be you'd lose a bit of your Karma points if you ignored the cry for help. Not as many as you gain for pitching in though.
Another option would be using your tokens to send for help from others while you engage in other activities. For this you'd gain as much Karma as you'd lose if not responding at all.
I'm 85% done with the game and I'm going for 100%. I just captured the last fortress and it said that nearby outposts wont be attacked anymore or something like that. is that the thing. (Sorry for my bad choice of words) I always captured the fortresses first before I did anything else in that region. And I dont respawn to the ground anymore (I respawn like 400m in the air) Sorry for listing my own problems in someone elses thread, should I make my own?
