green_machine 179 Posted August 25, 2014 The improvised backpack. It's flat against you back, unlike the hunter backpack, even if you go prone, it gives off a BUMP on your back that people might see. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Arm Of Kannon 9 Posted August 25, 2014 The leather bag doesn't really blend with anything but haystacks. I got to try out the improvised leather backpack though, it looks pretty slick. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hombrecz 832 Posted August 25, 2014 thats a great idea i cant wait but i've grown pretty close to my new leather sack i find it pretty amusing and have yet to play with someone who also has it I currently have it myself! :-). Had also 20 slot leather sack from deer skin, but I disliked it because it seemed rather bright to my liking.If it had fur same color as the deer, I might have stick with that though.

Airfield 50 Posted August 25, 2014 The improvised backpack looks fucking incredible with the Mosin wrap, full TTSKO, and the Olive High Capacity. Really, I sort of go in sperts by collecting enough to eat, engaging in activities for a couple hours, and relooting. I just hate going through the whole process of hoarding a mountain backpack of food to get shot before you actually use it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blunce 991 Posted August 25, 2014 Hunting backpack. Allows me to look over my shoulder, it's camouflaged, & provides the most slots along with those 2 assets. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hellcat420 212 Posted August 25, 2014 (edited) i use mountain backpack because i have still not found a home so i need the extra storage for my stuff. the mountain backpack should hold a lot more tho since its so much larger than the hunter pack.

hombrecz 832 Posted August 26, 2014 Would love if you could add some kind of camo to any backpack.Like those burlap sack wraps, or just small branches with leaves, or maybe some grass or so.Or maybe if we could loot bits of camo nets and add those to our beloved backpacks? Now I know, that would present additional work for art team, but hey, that's what they do so why not? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
way455 40 Posted August 26, 2014 My favorite pack was a Mountain backpack I found in Cherno Polana yesterday that had a SMERSH backpack INSIDE it. I was a fresh spawn on a 1st person server and was getting chased by a couple of zeds. I ran through a house with an open door and saw a green backpack out of the corner of my eye. I only had a raincoat and my jeans so I did the old quick stop, tab, quick swipe to my inventory and kept running. When I got clear and was able to check my stuff out, I noticed the SMERSH pack was inside it the pack with nothing else. There's no way that spawned like that, I thought the SMERSH was only at static heli crashes. I wonder if someone stored that there while they looted... either way, it's mine now. Now I think I need to find the SMERSH vest for the super pack! :lol: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cap'n (DayZ) 1827 Posted August 26, 2014 I stick to the hunter pack, as I'm usually running a well kempt and obsessively uniform outfit. Like, I only wear the red beret with the Partizan camo, and CDF beret with TTSKO. I will however, stick to improvised packs when running a minimalist and starter gear. My favorite is the new large leather pack, and it looks quite lovely. I avoid the Taloon, as it sticks out like a skinhead in a gay pride parade. Oh, and one thing. The Mountain pack is the object of greedy, overzealous scrubs. Seriously, I lose a lot of respect to anyone that *likes* that piece of utter shite. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I wouldn't say that about the mountain pack, its all about preferences respect the fact that all people have different opinions on different gear and you could have a better outlook on things Edited August 27, 2014 by TheMaxedout Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Super_Duty 466 Posted August 27, 2014 Preference is the hunter's backpack for stealth and the above mentioned ability to look over the shoulder. Still looking for a SMERSH vest to see how the SMERSH backpacks look attached however. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ebrim 998 Posted August 27, 2014 I like to keep my fishing pole on my shoulder and my axe in the backpack so I have to go improvised. Honestly though I'd prefer if I could just keep it an improv courier. If the damn portable stoves didn't burn everything I wouldn't need an axe. :( 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

battlerhd 116 Posted August 27, 2014 I very rarely use a backpack, on full servers where you know that you are going to get in firefight it helps a lot not to be sticking out so much when you have a backpack on. If i need to i will for for the improvised backpack Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
