Is the XP Booster optional?

[scemmer]

if anyone has any information for this please tell me cause the Deluxe edition on the game is the same price as the normal price but i think the Deluxe "XP Booster" bonus is gonna ruin the feeling for me

UPDATE: The XP Booster is INDEED optional, just started the game and it said that i have to activate it! GJ on you Ubisoft

Im sure they'll have other boosters to unlock aswell. We dont fully know the purpose of the booster. but I am certain you can choose when to use it so dont worry.

i only bought the deluxe version cause of the huntsman pack and if the xp booster starts exactly as i start the game it will ruin the experience of the game to me and my friends

Having the same question, I'll "upvote" this thread. Does anyone here know for sure if the Wildlands Deluxe Edition permanent 5% XP Boost is optional, or if it ties to your user profile automatically?

Like Rage suggests, this is somewhat of a deal breaker to me, too - I don't want to "cheat" by getting an unfair advantage over my friends.

It's only 5%

It gives less advantage than 10 minutes of extra playtime than your friends.

Deal breaker?

If something that small can ruin your experience or is a deal breaker, then don't buy the game.

sure, i could play this game with a 5% boost but then i would be way ahead of my friends and i dont really like that, and i think this game is pretty boring if you play it alone

A 5% boost is going to make very little difference, and you're likely to be bottlenecked by the acquisition of supplies, just like your friends.

While playing Assassin's Creeed Syndicate,it was bound to your account automatically.
so this time it is likely to be the same way.

Thanks for sharing. Rage, I agree with what's being said here - chances are Ubisoft will treat Wildlands the same way, and force players to accept the 5% XP boost. Please update this thread if you hear anything else.

The 5% boost shouldn't be much of any help.
At best you will be 1 level above your friends for 1-3 min max.
Also you can give them kills and just scout for the team to get less exp and still be helpful.

Well, when you put it that way it suddenly doesn't feel that bad having an unfair edge. Thanks for pointing it out!

A booster is typically a one time use thing. So if it does start automatically, just create a new character right away.

"Levels" don't make that big of a difference, unless you're talking about a level 1 compared to a lvl 20+. You're making it sound like it's 100% boost, which it definitely isn't. You most likely won't even notice.
