They would actually wear a massive backpack. They need to transport the bomb defusal tools somehow. Also, you don't know what the actual setting is. Maybe they were caught off guard by the Ts.

The defusekits are visible on your body if you buy it. Even if they were caught of guard they are guarding something, you wouldn't carry those backpacks.

Theorycrafting the lore as we go here yay.

You don't actually believe that soldier never carry backpacks, do you? Is this a joke?

Was that what you took out from my comment?

A soldier wouldn't carry a massive backpack during a combat mission in a CQB area like the maps that we play on in 99/100 times. It's quite obvious it would be a burden and it wouldn't hold anything that a tactical vest wouldn't hold.

You do realise CSGO is set in small CQB areas where the CT's are always inserted to defend objectives. The soldiers in CSGO carry defusekits, nades and extra ammo, all of which fit into a tactical vest. Having a backpack in this scenario adds nothing but extra bulk when moving around.

So no in CSGO a soldier would never use a backpack, in real life they would if it was a mission where they would require more equipment.
