Skyfire Update, Ammo Packs only grant benefit twice

(PC)
Has anyone else noticed that their Ammo Packs are only giving ammo for the the first two uses? The Paramedic Response Kits seem to heal for all three uses, but my Ammo Packs are only giving ammo twice, and the third activation does nothing after activating.

Hello, it’s the same thing for me, i test with different riffle and alao after changing riffle after the twice clic.

All sorts of ammo? Used 5 ammo packs yesterday and got 3x 30 rounds 7.62 each.
Curently count all ammo I get from the boxes and compares it to crafting the amount.

Heyo, this one’s been reported on the internal beta as well so it’s being tracked :+1:

As of the new update I have noticed that the ammo boxes do not give any ammo upon its 3rd and final use. The box just disappears without the ammo being given. This bug was on a Single player game on PC. I have used a total of ten ammo boxes and they all have had the same effect. At first I noticed it while clustering nine ammo boxes together so I thought it was a issue of too many ammo boxes in the area but no. After that I crafted one to see if the same thing happen but I got the same result. This behavior was not noted in the Paramedic Response Kit so it appears to be Ammo Box exclusive.

Same on PS4, the ammo box 3rd use don’t give ammo.

Same, getting this on PC also. The 3rd instalment’s animation and audio appears to be cut short and fails to do anything.

how do glitches like this even happen :confused: the same thing happens to me with the 3rd attempt, it boogle’s the mind with things that glitch that weren’t even touched in the updating process, the Ammo Box has remained in working condition since day 1

Moved to report thread covering the issue.

//Mod

just saw this issue last night on pc. was going to make a thread but one already was.

I only got 2x HEDP, 7.62mm and .50 BMG rounds from each ammo pack. Which is a bigger problem since 7.62mm is very difficult to find on the map, yesterday I cleaned the airport bunker and got 15 rounds of 7.62.

You’ll find ammo in larger quantities if you pick the Salvage skill perk. The northern parts of the map generally have better loot as well.

Hopefully we’ll see this bug fixed soon :slight_smile:

A good question indeed…

Don’t use (just) the pm71 and/or the minigun, if you want to get many 7.62. somehow the chances are reduced almost to 0 if just carrying them.

The only way to get ammo while using those weapons is to have the AL76 or one of the AG rifles in your inventory.
Its my method to get ammo due to the Weapons DLC bug.

the new minigun that arnold schwarzenegger used in that movie doesn’t let me us experimental 7.62 ammo, & the ammo pack don’t craft enough 7.62, :worried: I just use the ammo benches to craft the minigun, instead of the ammo packs, just don’t craft experimental

I get three used still. I haven’t seen any change

It’s an old bug related to introducing new weapons to the game. I’m not entirely sure how it works,
but it tends to smooth out after a patch or so. I can try poking somebody about it.

when is the last time you updated your game, the new updates introduced the ammo x 2 thing

All weapons from the European Weapon Pack have the same problem. Currently you have to accompany them with other weapons that use the same ammo for the game to spawn the rounds normally. I think some of the other weapon packs have the same issue, but I haven’t tested them thoroughly.
