How can you get a weapon silencer that does not overheat?
Hi,

I am in the early game, still doing missions alongside the daughter of the farmer father who distrusts any outsider. I have the MS-16 rifle, which is my favorite rifle, because it is essentially the M-14, and I imagine myself a US Army soldier in Vietnam, refighting the Vietnam war, except this time, we are going to win.

But my rifle has an improvised silencer. If I fire several shots in a row, the silencer overheats and stops working, and my rifle suddenly goes loud.

I want to acquire a permanent silencer, like what you have in Ghost Recon Wildlands. A silencer that works always, no matter how many shots are fired.
Is that available in this game? And if so, how do I get it?

you can't, They all overheat at some point, some last longer then others which you will get unlocked as you rank up

The enemies are easy in this game if you want your silencer to last longer then do more head shots not body shots

As above they will overheat if you don't have "parts" to upgrade . You can however collect parts/gunpowder to upgrade the guns before you follow the main story. Freeroam the "world" to get "parts" and you can upgrade the guns/find new guns.

You need to farm the hightier crafting materials to get the better suppressors. The easiest way I found is a Yaran Crocodile farming spot near a bridge on the south-west part of the island.

From the Libertad base on Zamok Island or whatever it's called take a boat north to the coastline of Valle de Oro and follow it west until you reach a lighthouse. Then drive straight west again, crossing the open sea. Soon you should be able to see a broadcasting tower of some sorts. You need to pass this tower so that it stays on your right side. Directly behind it (also on your right side) is a river delta. Enter it and drive upstream until you find the farming spot and the bridge.

You need a bow to farm undamaged alpha-crocodile meat reliably. The easiest way to get a bow is to build the hunting lodge in a Guerilla base. Roughly 1 in 10 crocodiles is an alpha. They have much darker skin and more health.

There are some that dont overheat as fast but theres weapon perks that also reduce the speed in which it over heats or cools down.

There are no traditional suppressors in the game, unfortunately.

If you want one, mods are the only answer.

The Libertad mod contains a no-overheat option, completely removes it from every weapon (mounted guns included).

It does unfortunately remove the neat-looking hot barrel effect though.

the as-val has built in suppressor and doesn't overheat but burn through ammo clips quick on full auto. also I recommend getting the overclocked version when it is in the black market

edit: the only other gun that has suppressor that doesn't overheat is the double o, which is a pistol

edit 2: I forgot about AJM 9 it also have a built in suppressor that doesn't overheat and it is a auto pistol or you can just use a mod

There's a mod that reduces overheating speed somewhere on nexusmods or far cry modding discord server so just install that and enjoy
