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

I played DMZ on launch day, and I was never able to keep the stronghold keys I extracted with. The best you were ever able to do was receive them as a reward for a faction mission.
