No more random encounters

I know it has been reported but somehow was not adressed in 1.3 and I am not sure if warhorse is working on this currently so here another topic about the absence of random encounters.

I do not know when exactly the encounters stopped happening but currently I am doing the main quest “All that glisters” and I can travel for days over the whole map and nothing happens, ever.

I will now try to find an earlier savegame and probably lose several hours of progress.

Please Warhorse, take a look at triggers in quests that disable the random encounters and enable them afterwards. Or don’t disable them at all, may be fun to have bandits in the middle of a horse race…

Hello, the same problem. I lost the encounters sometimes before battle of Přybyslavice.

I´m not sure if it is a bug or not.

Same here.

same here, but only since 1.3

Confirmed, even after the NAMELESS HOTFIX of 212 MB (steam), there is nothing else in the game world besides wanderers and ambushes…no riddles, no beggars to help … :frowning:

Same, no randoms after the 212 mb Steam patch, but on the positive side I did notice the some texture streaming and FPS improvements.

Wonder if it’s a console issue? I’m on PC and get all encounters, and ambushes. I do use ‘Dangerous Roads’, which works fine, and still run into the riddler, unsure knight, and such.

I am playing on PC.

I reverted to an old savegame before finding Timmy and nopw I have encounters again, did the quest without going to Timmy and still have encounters.

Same here, since 1.3.1 Already missing them …

Missing them on PC even after new game starting >_<

edit: nope, it just happaned in an older savegame

need a fix for this

Just for some people that don’t get random events anymore I thought this might be helpful.
I was searching how to get my random events back and found this.

You can debug random events and increase their appearance.
All you need is restricted console variables unlocker mod ( nexus mods )
Replace whgame.dll in your data folder and type in console or create user.cfg

wh_pl_randomeventsdebug ( 0 default / 1 debug ) I set to 0 right after that
wh_pl_randomeventscooldownsenabled ( 1 default (my setting) / 0 didnt have encounters )
wh_pl_randomeventbasechancerunoffset ( 0 default / 1 chance increase ) (a lot)

it works for me and ofc at your own risk. thx

I’m on PC. I started the game over after installing the 1.3 patch. I can also confirm, there have been no random encounters after about 8 hours of gameplay. I thought it was just me, or that I wasn’t exploring enough. But so far, I’ve only seem Wayfarers and random non-encounter NPC’s on the road.

But yes, there are still enemy camps. Have you or anybody reported this to the KCD team through e-mail support? Although I’m sure they are aware of it. But still may be worth getting in touch with them.

Do the thing I listed above and you will have more random encounters you could possibly deal with:wink:
I think there might be a bug and random encounters doesnt appear anymore. I think they should add unrestricted debug console command to the game

Yep, I never met the Knights, But I did run into some robbers both on foot and one time on horse. I also had another random encounter where a pretty girl stopped and ask if I wanted to have sex and led me to a cave where I got jumped by bandits.

Started a new playthrough with 1.3.1 and encounters seem to be disabled.

…I had some living soul selling me a treasure map last night!!!
So, it might not be completely deactivated, rather reduced

It’s only happening because your using mods… as it’s not happening for me, I’m seeing more people now by far

Same. I stopped having random encounters within an hour or two after the patch hit. Likely the few I had were pre-loaded already.

@warhorse Can we get this problem resolved on Console and PC.
