So far I really enjoyed the game, I just had a thought that if there was more gear your character could get, like backpacks, military webbing, and body armor. Unless I missed that gear in the game so far. These items could be cosmetic or could give the characters some extra bonuses. Either way, would be cool to see some of that in the future.
eh, yeah. to an extent it would be. even with the skill to carry more maxed out you can still hoard alot of good loot with a little bit of space management. im currently level 11 and im doing ok with the low tier stuff that i have, bullet proof vests would be nice if they arent added to the game already, havent explored much of the mainland to find much of anything, just constantly getting ganged by hunters and tanks to loot much of anything and hiding in houses till they go away lol
some clothing items do give buffs like fire proof or bullet impact but only to a certain extent with how far ive gotten so far.
Body Armor, backpacks, and gear pouches should all add inventory and obviously armor should mitigate the damage done to you. It would be really nice if you could just pick up those bright yellow, blue, green, and red back packs that we are looting from anyway even if they added 6-10 slots for a simple back pack…hugely beneficial at my lvl, 12. once you have a rocket launcher and a couple other weapons you want to hold onto…the idea of storage lockers or gun safe’s at safe houses becomes super relevant.
i am too at level 12, i even held a gun for a friend and still manage to carry enough suppies around that actually helps me (i dont carry radios or fireworks and flares cause i normally dont need to when im stacked with ammo, health and or always near somewhere safe) im carrying around 2 pistols, an assault rifle, sub machine gun, hunting rifle, shotgun, and all the ammo that comes with them, 2 stacks of grenades, some rockets and still have enough room for more if needed.
if you think you NEED something but NEVER use it, why pick it up and waste storage space? i never pickup flares cause as i said, i never use them.
just manage your space wisely and only carry when you absolutely need and you wont really come across any issues.
i understand that people want a storage cause the inventory currently is super tight and if they do plan to add more items when im sure they will, yeah, storage would be nice.
- 1 Would be great to have backpacks
Backpacks would be awesome even if they just carried your stockpile of guns. I have six different weapons not including my sidearm. and this takes up a lot of space but I don’t want to get rid of them as I use all of them in different situations.
I use flares and radios constantly along with propane tanks…radios and tanks aren’t stackable so…there goes my inventory.
I too carry around an AR, Recoiless rifle, hunting rifle, and shotgun…not much space left after that.
At higher lvls you get more stuff like mines, heslt and ammo containers for your team, bonus stuff for traps and more. So you get hard limited as far as you progress. I carry at the time 6 weapons (3 in the inventory) 1 is the grenade launcher, one may backup for my ai76, an 50 cap (low ammo stacks, so use is very limited) and my Sniper, main and pistol,wich need all ammo, I need health packs which in higher grades get lower stacks, the tickpacks, Grenades and on and on and on. So it’s get hard to decide what I carry with me (my backup and my 50cal is lvl 5 so I don’t want to drop em). After some time you need an better backpack or you have to make big sacrifices to your style of play.
Make sure to get the extra inventory space perk. Without it you won’t be able to make it later in game.
Im focused on unlocking this next
tell me where you got the 50cal, been wanting it ever since i saw the 50cal ammo from the mechs loot lol
Got it from an fnix harvester (harvester c), they where the only who dropped lvl 5 weapons for me.
I haven’t had any machine drop any weapons. And I’ve killed thousands at this point. so if you want the guaranteed 50 cal sniper rifle the way to do it is in the air Force Base. But you need the mission to get there. Which requires you to take over the warboard in the bunker North of the air Force Base. Can’t think of the name right now. I’ll be jumping on a few minutes and I’ll confirm the name of the bunker and the mission you need.
Tier 3 harvesters drop them at airfield. Bring some flares, a few large fuel cells, and enough ammo to deal with dozens of runners, many hunters, and a few tanks. Cheers, happy hunting
I second web gear and packs, it makes no sense to be running around with just your clothes on from a realism/immersion standpoint.
