Played this game for 227 game days (That's 47 game days past), and I've been killing bandits all the time. But now, I think I got this feeling: Will I ever run out of bandits to kill? Do I have to make a new game in order to get more? Cause I don't want to do that. I want to keep my towns, but that'll bug the town if I do.

No you wont run out of bandits :p (yet) Later on in the game u might be able to kill em at their roots but nothing have been said about that yet. So i dont know if u can kill an entire faction later on. :D

For now they just spawn over the map, i m guessing later on thell have there own bases to spawn from

Hmm i founf myself having niot enough enemies so i modded it to get double the amount of spawns :).
Hmm well upon laoding it will take a bit longer for npc's to spawn though, since there are 2ce as much enemy npc's. Hmm or sometimes i find myself enemyless, so noone of em spawned at all, best thing to do if u notice this is safe ur game then quit the game and startup the game and reload ur game :p

Hehehe, was bored!

Here's the increased-spawns mod I mess with.
The hostile factions roam in much larger squads, while the friendlies are slightly increased.
It's not in the good guys' favor. :shock:

I'd like to think you can run out of bandits.

Here's one of the reasons why:
I've never played Dead Rising to completion, but there is an achievement for killing 53,594 zombies, which was basically the population of the town.

Now, as far as I know, zombies were still numerous afterwards. It wasn't as though there was the occasional zombie wandering the mall, but there were still thousands of the bastards. Where the hell did they come from? I'm not looking for realism, but I think it would be nice if, after killing a tonne of zombies, there were areas that were empty.

I'd like there to be a set number of bandits in the world, some ridiculously high number, of course, but a set number. Maybe, if you keep going in your game for a few years, bandits will rise again, and become numerous, as the sons and daughters of bandits pick up arms, or normal people get fed up of working.

I'd love to play a game where, if you kill enough people, there won't be anyone left. A game where, if I kill too many people, the human race in that area will die out. I'd never do it, but I can imagine that someone would.
