Relay Beacons don't respawn

Support and Bug Reports
1

Update: Today (26-02-2023) all my relay beacons started respawning like normal, seemingly out of nowhere. I did however join a random game where the host had just reached Salthamn, perhaps it could have something to do with it? I don’t know but it can be worth mentioning.

Platform: PS4/PS5

Description: The relay beacons has stopped respawning in my game. There are a few that consistently respawn (along with all the soviet beacons); the most notable are the one west of Stenmyra and the one north east of Rusksele. All respawning FNIX relay beacons are in the Marshlands.

Steps to reproduce: It started happening a while back, I don’t remember what triggered it.

Host or client: Host.

Players in your game: I played alone to begin with but has had between 1 and 3 guests in my game while this issue has persisted.

Specs: Normal specs of the PS5 Disc version.

The one eastern of villa skogsberget (forest region) keeps respawning, too. At least for me.

It’s been a while since the respawn behaviour changed for most of the beacons. I don’t know what’s intended.

It has been part of numerous reports now, but we never got an answer.

I included this bug in a list of issues to focus on that Carni requested.

I thought the radio beacons respawning was a way to replenish the field radios. It’s been a thing since I started playing the game a few years ago and it happens all over the map. But not all beacons you destroy spawn back. Because I use them in co-op a lot, I visit a few areas for the radios they have. It wasn’t till recently that you could craft them. Not sure that this has ever been a “bug”.
