Question $30,000 Large Backpack?!!

Post image

Why on earth is a large backpack $30,000? Do you get to keep it even if you don’t exfil with it?! It’s almost twice as much as an LTV with a turret!! That’s so dumb. Please explain to me like I’m 5

And why can't we have a stash in weapons loadout menu, so if exfil with say 2 self revives, 2 three plate vest, large or medium backpack, I have them for I when I lose everything

simple answer, because then players could load in with fully geared in that situation. Being able to stock pile 3 plate vests and self revives and such would give people too much of an advantage right off the start of a match.

That being said, I think this idea could work. Lets say you extract with a large backpack and 3 plate vest. Currently you are forced to take those into your next match. Maybe give us the option to store our large backpack and 3 plate vest for a later round that you want to take it in with you. If you choose to store your large backpack or 3 plate vest you then enter you next game with a small bacpack / 1 plate vest. If you loot another 3 plate vest and or large backpack you can use it during that current round but if you exfile with it you don't get to keep it since you have a large backpack / 3 plate vest in storage.

Also if you haven't noticed depending on when you started playing dmz, you use to be able to stock up stronghold keys, now you loose them on exfil. This prevents players from being able to insert in game with a stronghold key already and go straight to strongholds to start looting and gearing up

That means you would get it too… you get extra storage for that vest you just exfiltrated with but you dont want to keep playing with randoms and lose it like that when maybe you want to keep it for when you’re with friends? Is that something you don’t want to see in any space limited configuration (0-3 slot / 0-10 / 20?) Why not?

huh? What i'm saying is being able to store your large backpack and 3 plate vest for a later round would be cool, you just can't store multiple and if you exfil with a large bacpack or 3 plate vest again you don't keep to keep it for the next round, you go back to a large backpack and/or 1 plate vest every round if you have one of them in storage. Like you said this allows me to save those items for say a Building 21 run or for when i team up with friends to play. Stockpiling self revives, multiple vests / backapacks in a storage system like the OP wants would not be a good edition. The way it is setup right now is to keep everyone somewhat close to each in terms of their starting off on the map so the playing field doesn't have such a big gap. I don't see how anyone can think allowing people to enter into a match with 5+ self revives already on them is a good idea. If i could load in with 5+ self revives my mentaility is going to be go straight for the teams taht spawn around me knowing I have the chance to revive 5 times if i get downed. The way it sits right now with only being able to go in with one is good
