Camo Question

[hallgraeme 17]

Latest Patch with Latest Beta

I found my first camo outfit. Is it ok to put it on or is it bugged? I have read various things about camo and ghillie outfits.

Anyone know the 100% correct answer?

Thanks in advance

It's fixed, you can put it on without the fear of losing your equip.

make sure you only press it once, I pressed it twice quickly once by mistake and I got teleported to the middle of the sea with no items. However I then respawned again where I was before but without the new skin (it was a camo too I think)

It was not fixed as of 8-1 (Weds); however, there is a specific procedure you can follow to have no ill consequences.

The current issue is that putting on a skin (camo/ghillie) rolls back your backpack to the backpack you were wearing prior to your current backpack, ie if you had a patrol pack and then found and ALICE pack and are currently wearing the ALICE pack then putting on camo will destroy your ALICE and you will be wearing an empty patrol pack.

Hence the solution is simple. Place your backpack on the ground (or in a vehicle/tent). Now, wearing no backpack, use the camo. Your backpack will revert to the last backpack, which unfortunately means you'll dupe whatever backpack you currently have. Now that you have camo on, drop the duped pack (which should be empty), and go equip your real backpack which has all your stuff.

Good luck.

PS if this current bug is truly fixed then my post is pointless, however since there hasn't been a patch since this current bug came out I'd play it safe and follow my post. And be nice, don't keep the duped pack.

I put on a g-suit and it worked fine without causing any harm to my pack. I then tried a camo later that day and it rolled my pack back to a patrol pack. Not sure how it decides if it will do it or not but it is not fixed.
