Additional ways of aquring ammunition

I see huge problem in acquiring ammo, if u don’t have engeneer that builds ammo boxes. So I’m suggesting:
1.adding ammo boxes on spawn in domination and eg. Ammo truck in assault.
OR
2. Come on… if im using 7.92 Mauser why I can’t loot ammo from bodies of teammates that also use this ammo? Why I need to change the whole weapon with gives me only 1 mag (also trying to do that is horrible mess, also throwing enemy granades back…). Also when I switch weapon to enemy weapon I should be able to do same thing(and this goes for all ammo types). Why I need to have ammo problem and struggle to find any only because somehow I haven’t died from one lone bullet from bot or console aim assist sniper.
It extreamly annoys me, even when usually I’m dead before ammo runs out.

You can also request ammo from other squad members - it is an option in the Alt menu, and sometimes it will come up as a prompt liek the one for picking up weapons

I know, c mon I play since cb… But still it gives u 1 mag and u are still fucked when ur bots die… And let’s be real… They do

Having been in the CBT doesn’t mean you know it - how would I know that you know it - you didn’t include it in your short list of how u can get ammo!! :stuck_out_tongue:

Hopefully now some people who didn’t know it b4 do know it now too.

I wrongfully assumed that all ppl have no problem in knowing what’s what. I am sorry, I should not have such faith in humanity, my mistake☹️

resupply points on spawn are a must tbh

Yeah, came to the same conclussion. They should add undestructable ammo boxes, maybe halfawy between respawn and the point in assault mode and in conquest somewhere near the objective. Picking up ammo from dead fellows is also reasonable…

I’m always running out of ammo, and then having to scavenge enemy weapons. It’s ridiculous how little these soldiers carry into battle, compared to the reality. Also, where are all the engineers, and what exactly are they doing?

@947622 sitting behind, camping with flakvierzing for infantry, rearly building cannons… Not all obviously, I had games where engeneer players build sandbags to cover attack or def, put ammo boxes for teammates and spawners close to enemy. But it is hard to find good player like this, least for me. Anyway not going off topp too much since it is all about ways to obtain ammo

It would help alot to actually show Engineer built Ammo boxes on the map for players, or an 3D HUD icon when they get near it, literally anything.

Right now there is nothing, people have to just be lucky enough to walk past one and use it.

Unless I’m not seeing where it shows you where one is placed down.

noob mistake to make such a sweeping assumption about people at all sorts of stages of knowledge of the game and from all around the world :rofl:

The mechanics for acquiring more ammo are there. It’s called the ammo crate/box that the Engineers can build.

The issue is, there isn’t a HUD icon of any kind that tells the rest of your teammates where it is. The ammo crate basically goes unused. It blends into the map and people run right past it.

They reeeaallllyy need to add some kid of HUD Icon or something for it. Like, if you’re getting low on ammo, it should be marked on your HUD and the map.

Yes, mechanic is there but remember-markers are one thing, but having good engineer squad that will actually build them in key places is not her different thing. U know like 90% of my games I am only one building those. Soo that is the issue here.
Besides, ammo scavange should definitely more impact full like I wrote at the beginning - let me scavange same ammo time from dead allies/enemies cuz constant weapon changing on dead bodies is irritating and gets u 1/2 mag
