When looking to upgrade soldiers, you used to be able to drag the new soldier over and it would give you an option to transfer equipment over. It still gives you the option, but it doesn’t do anything, the old soldier still keeps his equipment and the new soldier is empty.
I tried this with a Radio 1 being changed to radio 2, didn’t work. MG 1 to MG3, again didn’t work?
@Euthymia07 Hello, is this known by Devs?
You can’t interchange weapons/customization between a British and a US soldier.
Could be one explanation?
But how would I know if they are different nationalities? Good thing to suggest as reason though, so it works on PS5 if same nationality?
You don’t get an option to overwrite their load out, I do, so it’s not this, will do a video later
Asked another PS player to check this, it worked for them, so you might be trying to change equipment on soldiers that don’t have full slots unlocked
Hi, I will double check that, would that stop weapons being transferred? I will check that and add a video of it, if same slots open. Thanks
Hello, I have checked and it’s nothing that you suggested above, I have done a video, if you can find a reason why I am open to suggestions.
Can any other console players confirm, is this a UI lag bug, which someone said to me yesterday, where it has swapped out weapons but UI doesn’t show this, but if you leave squad selection screen it has actually worked.
I’n on pc, when I swap soldiers, sometimes I am asked to swap their equipment, but sometimes I am not asked, I have no idea why.
Edit: it also happens often, that I am asked to swap the equipment, I answer yes, but nothing gets swapped.
I think it’s a UI bug, the equipment does get swapped, just doesn’t show / update mate. Try it, swap equipment, leave squad select screen and you will see it does work just need to leave squad screen… at least on Ps5 that is the case.
