ALL POSTSIssue with restricted areas 
<p>I've noticed (both while playing the PS3 and XBox 360 versions) that at times, <i>usually</i> after extended gameplay (6+ hours), the military will act as if you are in a restricted area no matter where you are. Seemingly only after completeing a military settlement (Airport, Base, Harbor[I have not had this happen with Communication Outposts]), and hiding in water. Though this can happen on land as well, it is far less prevelant.
</p><p>This can get frustrating and sometimes extraction fixes it, (which still works as if you are not in a restricted area) sometimes it doesn't. Death, on the other hand, has always fixed it as far as I can remember. I have never tried reloading a save, as it really isn't THAT drastic an issue, even on hardcore mode.
</p><p>I've looked this up repetedly over the years, and this does get talked about on some websites, but requires a very specific wording to find, and is rarely talked about or taken seriously. (usually discredited with something explaining the heat system despite the fact that this effects far beyond the areas, actions, and time that it should)
</p><p>Has anyone else experianced this? I suspect it has to do with system cache, but I'm not entirely sure. Also has anyone on PC experianced this, or is it console only? (This would support the aformentioned idea, if it has not)
</p><p>Sorry if this has been brought up before, but it is difficult to find, anywhere... It is also very difficult to reproduce, as it seems completely random.

<p>Made a small edit, did not intend the confusion. Edit again to make it easier to undestand if necessary. When this bug happens again I'll test reloading a previous save and edit accordingly.

<p>That hasnt happened to me, but once I drove past a gas station and it randomly exploded. No vehicles crashed into it.

<p>Reloading a save game does fix the issue.
</p><p>Never had a gas station randomly explode lol. But I'm currently staring at a helicopter stuck against a tree that was chasing me while I was on the side of one of the mountains.

<p>I use a PC
</p><p>Every time I complete a military settlement this happens
</p><p>No matter where you go, even stunt-jumping onto green-marked vehicles are even entering them will not solve the problem
</p><p>It should go away after a while, although I do remember one time where I completed a Communications Outpost and as soon as I leave the area and get onto the highway, I get instant level 5 heat
</p><p>Though I was near a propaganda trailer now that I think about it
</p><p>So don't worry this can happen, I experience this all the time, and I basically got used to it

</p><p>Yes this glitch is very much possible
</p><p>After sustaining heat level 5 for a very long time whilst attacking a military base
</p><p>I went outside carrying a Minigun ready to shred any Panau Military personnel
</p><p>None came
</p><p>Heat level 5 died to heat level 1 which died to semi-permanent pre-heat
</p><p>However
</p><p>Upon contact with a road patrol
</p><p>My heat instantly sky rocketed a vertical 180 to heat level 5's maximum

<p>This reminds me, once I respawned at the Blaine Residence wielding a minigun

<p>If you're in a gun turret while saving, you can respawn with a weapon. If you do this with the Mounted Gun, it'll oddly point up.

Well it's better than creating a new thread everytime you find something...
