Vest Pouch Changes, and Bandoliers

[God Dan 62]

I think that there should be more types of storage in your inventory in the game, as well as an encumbrance system, which I have seen in other threads so I won't go into detail on that. There should be bandoliers that you can hold ammunition on, maybe 3-4 magazines, and I think that with the new clothing coming in the SA, there could be bandolier army clothing. I also think that the there could be variety in Vest pouches that would actually go on your chest, rather than back. There should be small ones with only 5 or 6 slots like the old one, and larger ones with up to 15 slots, without gun slots. These could be used in addition to a backpack. If there is an encumbrance system, maybe it would be more favorable to have a large vest pouch and a bandolier rather than a huge coyote backpack.

They've already said you will be able to store items in your jeans pockets so who knows what they've got for that.

I assumed that the regular inventory without your backpack was just that. Where else would you put mags/food and stuff

I think Matt was wearing some sort of tactical vest in the SA vid they released and Rocket mentioned different clothing having various storage benefits.

Hey, Fraggle! Love your banner.

As soon as they're in game, I'm gonna fill my inventory with Fraggelo's and run off into the sunset.

I do remember him wearing that. I'm not entirely sure how much variety there will be with clothing or if certain items will work better than others (i.e. different types of footwear like boots, or sneakers).

Well, he said they already have 100 different items listed and we can expect more. I think it's his intention to make different clothing reflect the positives negatives of that type of clothing. This should be possible now that each item in the game world can have it's own unique identity.
