Storage box size

I thought the pop-ups suggested similar threads that came up was enough. But since they were all from april and march i thought they were dead.

And i did suggest infinite storage but not inventory.
Game wouldn’t be better with infinite inventory.

I did try to search for similar topics and come up with balancing.
However as usual it’s not good enough.
But that’s personal problems.

You are aware of the current way to get infinate storage though right ?

No i am not.

It’s not an exploit is it?
Since i don’t cheat in MP games.

Creating other characters can give you pretty much unlimited space. I have a character on ps4 with literally 1000 kilos of ammo and that’s not including 600 advanced first aid kits. The character cant move but as long as it can reach the box I can get stuff from it at any time. Another character holds 1 of every weapon and attachment and at least 10 of every item + 500 rounds of ammo for each. We have the storage just not in the box.

Ah, so all the characters are in the same world.

So if it’s a known exploit it feels a bit moot to have a limit.

So all of us use some storage space: inventory, scrap inventory, and box storage. I think we should be able to place down crates ( which we could craft ) that would hold more storage space, or upgrade the one we have at every Safe House.
Basically, what I’m saying is, increase storage space. I need more

When I first started playing the game (200+ hours ago, according to Steam), I was surprised when my Plundra hit the max limit. I hadn’t even noticed it HAD a limit, until I ran into it.

That was when I discovered recycling! And I thought, “Oh, OK, I just have to prioritize what I keep in my storage, and recycle stuff to make sure I always have room!”

And that went along fine for a while, until… oops, the recycling station has a limit, too?? How did I not notice that?? So there I was, full storage, full recycling… and that was when I learned that you have to take a long, hard look at what “stuff” is important to you in this game. :smiley:

And now here I am, keeping under both limits pretty easily, and just going out and playing the game. I mostly gather and recycle all the ammo I can, when I start to get too much stuff in my Recycling storage (such as Thread, and Rubber, and that sort of thing), I just trash it and keep building up my stockpile of what I need to make bullets, and off I go!

I guess what I’m driving at here is… I think this is something that everyone runs into at some point, and learns to deal with. Just think of it as a bit of a mini-game! You can’t store thousands and thousands of rounds of every type of ammunition, along with hundreds of every item, five duplicates of every weapon, and so on. But generally speaking, you can store everything you need to play the game and have fun. :slight_smile:

Now… all that having been said: I wouldn’t complain if they bumped up the limit a bit now and then. :wink: (Or if they let me recycle things like Car Battery in groups of 5 instead of 10, for example.)

Good gaming!

Very well put.

Either play within the limits, or get yourself a mule

for people who play on multiple characters it has to have been noticed that storage fills up way to fast i think the capacity needs a big bump or needs to be removed because universal storage across four characters fills up the 250 point cap too fast for it be any use.

//mod Merged similar topics

I also agree with everyone that we need a bigger storage box and boxes not be universal among characters. With 200kg i can find it almost mangable but have drop some weapons and attachments as I want to store a good amount of medical items and items and a good couple thousands round of ammo so I can restock my character between safe house’s.

Hi mate,

You just need a mule to store all spare gear on.

I gear up with 90, with the same 90 + 20% in the plundra and will last 4-5 hours.

Maybe refine your inventory and Plundra?

Yes, if you level up a few other characters you can get quite a bit more storage, not to mention that you can spread out your weapons a bit more, so that you can actually use them, instead of just having them in the storage box.

I miss the good old days when we didn’t have a box. Then you had to make difficult choices. It’s was more of a challenge. Now it’s more like a walk in a park because you can’t run out of ammo anymore.

Of course, in the old days, I don’t think all of the available weapons could actually be carried.

It was possible, with room to spare.

Proof:

14 vanilla weapons took 28 slots. While you had 40 slot inventory + 6 slots for weapons + 4 slots for gear.

Though, the idea wasn’t to carry all weapons at once. Instead, pick the ones that suited you the most.
E.g my 1st (Sniper) build:

Back then, having 1000+ rounds of ammo was more than enough. Now, you can carry 10.000+ rounds, store up to 50.000 rounds in Plundra (e.g 7.62mm) and people are still complaining. :confounded:

I love the game and attention to detail/atmosphere but ffs why is the amount of storage so low ?
And Im not talking about players inventory but safehouse storage. Its so satisfying to walk from house to house explore and collect stuff then leave what u dont need at the base (for later use ofc)…
Without being able to store anything else (after the storage is filled) theres no reason to explore or collect anything anymore so it kinda ruins the game for me.

Ps. Imo increasing it by x10 would be perfect but the more the better.

The current size would be fine if it was easier to track how much we have of each item. I really miss the grid inventory, because it was so easy to just look at your inventory and go, “okay, I’ve got X amount of ammo.” That’s just not possible now.
