Sin in the mod “Legend Returns” actually was allies with the zones mutants, to the point, that when they fought another faction you’d often see them accompanied with other humanoid mutants in their squad. Burers, pseudogiants, bloodsuckers even!

With this, we are actually able to bring that Key defining trait of Sin into Anomaly now.
Another thing to mention is that sin and monolith ******* HATED each other in Legend Returns, their dynamic was much like that of Shia and Sunni fundamentalist Muslims, as one faction worshipped the zone in its entirety as a God/goddess while the other worshipped the Monolith Crystal that is the wish granter.

I absolutely agree with you on that. Honestly, because of A-Life system there is no need to spawn in stalkers and mutants as they will migrate to populate Promzone all on their own. We need more territories that separate faction bases from each other, so that the player needs to prepare accordingly for an expedition each time.

Personally, I would’ve preferred Promzone be a sort of in-between no-man’s-land to separate Rostok from Army warehouses.

It feels way too jarring and tightly packed how the duty base is pretty much next-door to the freedom base just above them.

It’s worse in warfare mode, as you’ll find that both factions sends waves upon waves of troops to die at the Burnt homestead, which if duty wins gets a free base to curb stomp the freedom faction within an hour of game start.

Having the Primrose level in between would largely fix that without need of meddling with the Commander AI of both factions. It wouldn’t even need a trader or an important NPC to be there to make it interesting because of so many stalker and mutant squads passing through that level.

Wild territory for example is the no man’s land between Rostock and Yantar, Red forest is one for army warehouses and Jupiter.

The zone is supposed to be a place of looming ever present danger, with only the rare stalker outpost being an Oasis amongst the desolation. Not this midnight walk down to the corner shop to buy a pack of cigarettes and a Coke vanilla.
