I can see why alot of it got lost as doing multiplayer and coop just adds to the complication details of syncing that stuff. if there games were even a little bit like the Arma3 etc series for map, mission, scripting, server modding it could be really good or provide a good base for someone else to make something better. just a shame screwbie soft have always been anti-modder. more than realistic graphics if you go by gameplay > graphics, certainly made for a nice singleplayer experience and sandbox world. it all adds up for a more immersive experience. Still those subtle little things like being able to shoot individual branches off a tree and have more destructible objects with more physics at play and different ammo types interacting with the world along with wall penetration. however I won't bother,I think the development team had more interest in those details than much else about the game design. And, when liberating compounds, you'll sometimes expend a lot of ammo, but if the last Peggie gets killed, it shows the brief "liberated" cut scene, then warps you down into the compound and the bodies are all (except for the occasional stray) gone so you can't loot ammo. there are a couple of areas that feel disjointed, and in one case trying to do a mission, completed a different story mission in the process, and got transported over 2K meters from where my other mission was. Even the little stuff like fishing off the pier, driving around a tractor, flying a sea plane or helicopter, hunting game. Overall though, I'm really loving the game. almost too many options so it took me awhile to figure out how to specify which NPC I'm assigning to help me, and there's not much indication of when they "die" so you'll just notice they're not around and you can't summon them to help you.

The music does a good job of matching the locale and atmosphere so it seems to blend pretty seamlessly.

sometimes just standing outside and looking into a doorway, then panning the camera and boom.all white fading back into normal. I'm not crazy about the super blown out bloom when going from an interior to exterior. The visuals really are fantastic, even from afar (jumping in a sea plane and flying around the terrain). I'm playing it on an Xbox One X and a 65" 4K UHD TV so I'm playing it in Native 4K.
