What players need to know about playthrough requirement
Are you tired of having to play through the same missions over and over again? There’s a way out! The concept behind playthrough requirements is similar to loot crates in games. If you complete a mission successfully, you unlock new items in the game. Let’s see more information about playthrough requirements below.
What are playthrough requirements?
When you log into your account for the first time after a certain date, you will have to start from scratch all over again. This means that any progress on previous plays will be nullified. You must also download the game again before playing it.
How long does it take?
It takes around 10 minutes or so to finish this process. I am not sure if there is a limit on the number of times you can complete this process.
Do I get my stuff back when I complete the whole thing?
Yes, everything you earn within the first playthrough will come with the completion of the second playthrough. However, anything earned outside of the playthrough requirement will remain untouched until you clear it off. So, for example, if you fail at the third mission, your progress from the second playthrough won’t change. Make sure you keep track of anything you’ve done outside of this playthrough.
Does the entire gameplay reset when you start over?
No. Your weapons, skills, level, etc. will carry over from the last playthrough. They may even retain their upgrades depending on the upgrade system used here. Only your experience points will not carry over.
Where can you find this “date”?
To begin this process, you’ll have to head to your main menu and then hit the F11 button (Windows)/Command + 1(Mac). A pop-up message will appear letting you know that the time has been set to some point in past.
In conclusion, if you want to save your progress, you should wait till the very end of the day. Just make sure you’re logged in properly the next morning or else you might lose access to your account forever. Also, as stated earlier, make sure you keep track of everything you’ve unlocked outside of this playthrough. If you wish to proceed, just go ahead and follow the instructions that appear on the screen.
