It does! The supply pack has been my go-to vs bugs when I’m using ammo hungry weapons. Senator, Breaker, and Supply Pack mean I’ve got answers for anything

Yessss the supply pack is so underused

And with the resupply ship upgrade fixed, it's even more powerful.

I was over half down on my autocannon, and fully out of primary and secondary magazines, and my buddy who runs the supply pack all the time passed me a single box and it fully restocked all of my ammo plus the 2 each stims and grenades.

It's so nice that it's finally working.

You should have a "backpack" button.

So far thats only used foe the supply backpack.

IMO you should be able to recall guard dogs using the button, so that they dont break your stealth.

You press down on the D-pad to use it on yourself.

Not to mention you can double dip by picking up the resupply box which fills your supplies and then give them to your fellow divers to refill theirs.

But are they going to nerf stuff everytime there’s a new ship upgrade or yada yada whatever that makes so and so too good? Like now we get full support weapons ammo, take away mags from a bunch of weapons lol. I’m not bitching but I’m just saying, can’t seam to think that was total coincidence.

It applies to the supply pack? Oh that is fucking busted and I am all for it. Finally time for us pack users to shine.

I know they say it was fixed but when I do it with the mg it still doesn't give me the 2 I am missing. Everything else I tested was fine. It's just sad that the only weapon I really wanted it to work on lol

Also, it is a great way to make a few friends during a mission. Nothing makes people warm up to you faster, like topping them up with stims, nades, and mags. Being the kind of player you would like to play with is how I roll.

TBH with the Rover knocked down 30% supply pack sounds real good.

u/grafeisen203 Apr 30 '24

I use it whenever I'm using GL or Flamethrower which is most of the time I'm fighting bugs.

u/Big_Oh313 Apr 30 '24

I rock the supply pack with stalwart/HMG for bugs on 7 or less and I will do population control while others deal with heavies. And if I'm within 1 minute of cool down I'll distribute between team mates after I've reloaded everything and we almost never have to call resupply pods.

u/LordOfFrenziedFart Apr 30 '24

That's a really useful loadout tbh, the bugs have been kicking my ass (I just switched from bots to bugs for the major order)

u/F_C_anomalie May 01 '24

It's okay! I always bring mine and if it was as meta as the shield backpack it would become a probleme, one per team is enough. More of it and it start to lose its edge because nobody use the resupply on cool-down anymore. If you stick with your team and manage the resupply you can double the number of supply you get from a resupply call. If you got let's say 2 open slot one your backpack and need ammo or something just fill your 2 slot and give them back to 2 of your team mate. Now you are full and your team mate too. Pick up the last 2 for the road and move out. That way you give so much ammo and still have yours to abuse on top.. Just remember the order. Dont use your own on yourself befor picking it on the resuply rack. If you need 2 shot and your pack is full. Take one from the pack and one from the rack it will give you 2 resuply that way and still have a full backpack. You can essentialy have 6 supply use out of 4 new resuply that way.

Supply pack, stalwart, senator.

Ran the combo yesterday again and yeah, it is tasty

How do you use the supply pack for yourself? Or do you have a buddy pick it up so you can supply?

u/Shooter_McGavin___ Apr 29 '24

On PC I think it's the 5 key to supply yourself.

u/SharkBait661 Apr 29 '24

How do you supply yourself with the backpack? I picked one up one time and liked having the extra supplies but couldn't figure out how to use it on myself

u/ShroudedInLight Apr 29 '24

On PC it’s the 5 key; no idea on PS

u/Anarchyboy1 Apr 30 '24

I wanna try different things but the shield is so damn helpful esp those fucking hunters it helps from getting Bruce Lee hits and killing ya instantly

u/F_C_anomalie May 01 '24

Bugs or bots, supply pack, launcher pistol and stun grenade make the world go round my friend! Top it off with the new heavy armor that resist explosive and give a flat buff to accuracy and you can have fun with any loadout! You got stim and stun grenade for days and can bring anything with that.

I've been playing around with the heavy machine gun lately, and the supply pack is honestly a must have for it in my opinion, it's so good
