[Suggestion/Bug] In solo campaign, the supply truck should not change resource | Forums

[JayTuut]

So basically say you're on the east side of the map, you need some food resources, you see a convoy on another territory or something, so you fast travel to it, but for some reason in solo, it changes the supply truck (if playing with other players this doesn't happen interestingly enough).

Why does this happen? I just want to get a food truck so i go to the nearest base to catch up to it, why does it change from food to medical or whatever? It happens all the time and it's so annoying to just fast travel there and then realize it's not the resource I need.

Yup, so if it's critical I use a helo and mark it on the map of course.

Yeah but the problem with this is helis dont give as much, like normally heli's give ~2500 and convoys give ~5000

It's fast traveling, and it's intentional... so you don't cut corners. Get a helo and fly to the convoy directly. It's only ~20km max to get from one end of the map to the other... not a big deal, especially for 17K in resources.

You sure about that in solo? In my experience it only changes location due to the time expiring during fast travel. It IS moving after all.

It doesn't always change, but it will at times and you are correct it is because it is moving. In places like Koani(where I have jacked numerous convoys to fuel my Tier weapons upgrades) there is a pattern to it, it's just a really long pattern.

For proof that it is moving, select it as your mission and then fast travel, you will see where it moved to while you were "traveling".

Not always, like if I fast travel from Point A to a truck at Point B, it'll still have my waypoint on a convoy and in the same spot, but it's a different convoy that time.. It's dumb

That's stupid and I doubt its intentional if you can do it in multiplayer, ~20km takes about 20 minutes to do (its like a minute per km in a heli, maybe 30 seconds but even then 10 mins to the other side is pretty ****) and it shouldn't waste time like that. It's dumb.

It's faster than you think. The AH-6 has a level flight velocity of 216km/h... 16.67s/km... 20km equates to 5m33s total flight time. I know your numbers are off even without the calculations. I'm so used to it, I'm calling out accurate waypoint ETAs to my NPC teammates...

20km is also the worst case scenario. I usually grab all the 5Ks in a region, and then just shift over to another region to balance out. I also don't squander the 20km runs. I use the time to train NOE flight... and that has a HUGE payoff in this game, both in your proficiency as the pilot and your enjoyment of the game as a player.

Ubisoft did it again, wrong suppressor on the mk18 in the actual gameplay and this not the first weapon it is also an issue on the:
> SR-635
> PDR
> M40A1
I mean the U100 smg had the same problem but they fixed it and the weapon was free.
SO PLEASE FIX THAT ON THE OTHER WEAPONS TOO, cause we payed real money for some of the weapons.
