Disappearing Items/Backpacks

[jowell24 0]

I was playing with two other people on LU34 and while raiding one of the airfields, I came across an coyote backpack in one of the barracks. I was unable to swap backpacks as it did not show up when I brought up 'Gear'. When I resorted to dropping my ALICE backpack first, My backpack disappeared from my view but my friends could see and access both backpacks.

One of them then swapped backpacks for the coyote only for his ALICE backpack to disappear as well. In the end two of us lost our ALICE backpacks with the other guy picking up the coyote and putting most of our items into his pack since he was the only one able to see and access our long gone packs.

On a side note, unlike everyone else I have never been able to access someone's backpack directly. Just thought I'd mention that if its of any use.

Anyone else had this problem and do you know what can be done to remedy the bug?

EDIT: Also I previously had a FAL in my bag along with three mags that disappeared when I dropped them on the ground for my friend to pick them up
