Location no longer accessible?

Today I wanted to revisit the ‘Military Compound - Factory Complex’ in the Mountain Region (-3867, 111). I started at ‘Muskudden Port Complex’ safehouse and followed the above the ground train train tracks all the way to where the factory is. But today I could not find a way in, because the doors were locked. I had lockpicks, so that wasn’t it. I believe that at this location there were a lot of machinery and wagons loaded with cargo. There were a lot of train tracks, so it wasn’t the FOA 4 facility. Still I am not totally sure. I also tried to find another way in but to no avail.

I believe I made this picture in the factory complex

So I wondered, did I remember wrong? Or is this factory location locked after it is visited it for the first time (or other reason)? Can anybody confirm that the Factory Complex is really locked. I don’t think it’s a bug.

It’s ‘collapsed’ after you complete the mission in there - the blast causes a cave-in. As I like to keep visiting all locations, I reverted to an old save (from before completing the mission) and left it at that. No DLCs for me, then, though.
You can teleport into the place if you left a radio beacon in there prior to completing the mission, funnily enough.

Yeah, If I had known I could have left a field radio in there. :rofl:

Wouldn’t have done you a lot of good tho - they disappear after restarting the game, so it’d only be a short triumph… :cold_face:
I still hope they a) fix up the worst errors down there and b) make at least parts of the bunker systems permanently accessible after the mission. I kinda dig the radar rooms and huge caverns.

Yes, It’s a pity that we can’t go there anymore, but that’s part of the game, I guess. Explosions, cave-ins, etc. Who knows maybe it will be part of the story after all.

There are few locations in game where when you complete the mission in them, you can’t access them afterwards. What this topic talks about is RÖ and 2nd such place is FOA5 bunker complex.

:sunglasses: So is RÖ located in the same bunker as the factory facility? Maybe off-topic, but has there been a mention of a FOA 3 facility, that one seems to be missing in the story so far, or at least missing by me.

Sometimes after joining some one else’s game, who haven’t completed that mission you’ll revert this location back to its previous condition in your own game. I had this a couple of times :wink:

I was wondering if this occurrence was a result of an older mission that we completed or something new to pay attention to in terms of environmental storytelling. I noticed this the day the FNIX Rising DLC dropped and with this I found multiple areas outside of the South Coast that changed for me -

FOA 53 was finally caved in.
Factory complex was oddly caved in.
FOA 2 door was opened and hatch was slightly open.

I’m avoiding mentioning more, because I believe I found other elements the next days, not the release day.

To remember more easily:
Port complex - Muskudden
Actual factory - RÖ (Redovisningskansli Öst) aka Accounting Office East

No.

There is mention of FOA1. FOA2 is present on map (North of Norrmyra). No word of FOA3. FOA4 is in Himfjäll and FOA5 is in North Coast (SE of Hermelinen).

Thanks. So to be perfectly clear. FOA 1 is only mentioned, but not (yet) identifiable on the map.

I would hazard a guess at it being on the big island above himfall, boy will that be a banger of a DLC

Well, that island is the only one of the unapproachable islands that has roads and an airport on it. :+1:

Yes. Also, i don’t think FOA1 would be anywhere on the currently unlocked map.
