1. Just a few things I figured I'd mention when it comes to restarting the story:
  2. 1. If you've finished the story arc and restart, you will lose access to all side missions until you do the corresponding main quest to unlock them again.(Mentioned in the Xbox forums already).
  3.  
  4. 2.  Repeating the quests seem to give a random piece of gear, listed in the mission rewards as, "Random Gear Chest."
  5.  
  6. 3.  "NONE SHALL PASS" the Golden Gate bridge (the guardian is back)
  7.  
  8. 4.  Your fast travel spots, found hotshots, and time trials still show on the map.
