Marines Cannot Restock or Refill vendors anymore!!

Post by Xurphorus » 11 Dec 2016, 23:17

Okay so I attempted to take my empty mags to the RO so that my mags could be refilled but they could not do it, I tried to duplicate this feature by trying it myself at another vendor but also failed. Please devs, please tell me why take away one of the few things marines can do just to stay in the game? M41a ammo dries up quick with High pop rounds, and especially rounds that drag along.

Please return that feature so that we may happily refill our ammo and stay relevant within the game, instead of using weapons that don't fit our preference.

I had this problem earlier, it works with the standard marine vendors, just not the RO's. Furthermore, you have to drag the icon to the vendor as opposed to clicking on the vendor with the item in your hand.

Hope this helps :D.

To even add more to that, The RO's vendor should be allowed to restock whatever, why take that away?

I'm pretty sure the change also made it so you DON'T have to open the maint panel on the vendors to restock.

There's the problem with Armor also, SL players used to restock their helmets to get a new one, feature or exploit? I wouldn't care to much about it if the Cargo players didn't give a shit about ordering new SL armor every time an SL helm breaks.

Honestly, I like this system, means you can easily restock most items by simply dragging items into the venders without the need of a screwdriver.

I always hated how a lot of venders looked constantly opened up, when they should be closed. That, and now marines can clean up after themselves better in the armory instead of making a fucking mess.
Sometimes, bravery comes from the most unlikely sources.

I don't understand why is there even hidden AP smg rounds and AP pistol rounds in those Vendors.

I don't really understand about when they cared about the armory being a mess.

Cargo techs should be able to fix and refill not vendors imo. That would explain why they have a toolbelt.
