More than 2 weapons?

[Tylovan 0]

Is it possible to have more than 2 weapons on you at a time?

If so, how can I do this?

[XDARKNESS192 20]

it is possible you can acctually have 3 or 4

you will need a bigger bag and you will have to open your bag and switch them everytime you want to use the other one.

I currently have a M4A1 holo with a camo skin and M203 grenade launcher as my primary. A DRM in my pack with a silenced M9. and I have a pdw as my sidearm. So yest it is very possible to carry multiple weapons. Like above post said u will need a bigger pack.

You can carry two weapons in the Coyote backpack (assault, not the one that you start with), that's the max. you can carry I think, 3 weapons.

Thanks for the info.

I have found an Alice pack, but it didn't seem to add any inventory room. Click "Open Bag" doesn't do anything different either. Am I missing something or is that just the same size bag as well?

[TheSexyGoat 5]

When you click 'open bag' it should show the items in your backpack on the items list on the left side of your gear window. On the top left corner, you're gonna see how many free slots you have in your backpack (I.E.: you have 5 free slots, should say (5/20), five free slots out of twenty (Alice PACK)).

Primary weapons takes up 10 slots in your backpack, sidearms takes 5.

best way to manage your backpack is when you are accessing a loot pile. Just double clikc on the bag when you are and you will see the slots in the bag, you can the select "close bag" to get back to your main inventory.

*be warned, moving stuff between backpack and inventory can result in items being deleted if there is not enough room*

You *can* actually carry 6 weapons

1 rifle in your inventory

1 sidearm in your inventory

4 sidearms in your backpack(5 slots each, possible with ALICE or Coyote Elite)

Fiddling around in the dark, I've now lost to side arms. Wish I had read this first. :(

It is possible until you own fuckin backpack trolls you so hard that you have no weapon left but a shitload of magazines. Happened to many guys, including me, so be careful and try it out how to do it right (because it is possible) with low value weapons.

I have all the ammo in my inventory and just switching weapons to backpack - inventory. only move weapons from backpack to inventory and not otherway around to avoid losing weapons. ammo doesnt move from inventory to backpack with weapons.

Huh? Your wording was a little confusing, but in my experience if I have say a Lee Enfield with 2 mags, when I move the Lee Enfield to my backpack it also moves the ammo meaning I need 12 slots free. I know if you try to move a weapon to a backpack without space it gets deleted, but I'm not sure how it works if you don't have room for the weapon AND the ammo so I always make sure I have space for both just in case.

[integ3r 5]

Here's what you need to know in order to keep extra weapons.

A sidearm takes 5 Slots

A main weapon takes 10 Slots (this means it's impossible to have one in the coyote.)

A single magazine/clip takes 1 slot

-Sometimes when dropping weapons, you will automatically drop the ammo aswell! So make sure you have room for the ammo in the pack, or you may lose it.

The coyote backpack (not the patrol pack) has 24 slots. This means you can have 2 main weapons weapons and 4 smaller items like ammo.

How to use 2 main weapons: If you have 1 weapon in backpack and 1 in inventory, keep both guns ammo in inventory (so when you move your gun to backpack move your ammo back to inventory.) when you want to change weapons, go to your backpack and doubleclick the weapon in there. it automatically changes the guns and doesnt move any ammo if they all already are in inventory. Sorry if I am not clear. English isnt my native language.
