    Specialist ammo disapearing

    Anyone else having problems with the specialist ammo disappearing of the agent when logging off then log back in again??

    I'm running demolitions and thought I was imagining it but no, I've checked a few times with different amount of grenade ammo on and it still does it.
    Its very annoying when you in a **** storm go to pull out the big gun and realise you've been robbed!!

    On a plus note though at least after yesterdays patch i'm getting some special ammo dropping of npcs but doesn't help when you get robbed.
    I know you can go to white house swap out special and back again and it refills ammo but really don't want to keep having to do that.

    Better than us Australian players.

    When we group it automatically moves us to the Asia server (hello lag... ) but when it moves servers, it also zero's out the specialised weapon ammo, so even if you were full, if you queue or join a mission, there go'es you're ammo, and for me, the drop rate hasn't been fixed either (marksman on PC)

    Good to know it isn't just a PC issue. Yes, this is an issue and I think they have acknowledged and plan to fix.

    The work around is to go to the specialization table in the base of operations, and select another specialty, then select the specialty to go back to that. It fills your ammo.

    Also, the latest patch increased the drop rates of special ammo, which will make this a little bit less of a problem. Used to be that you had to hope ten moons aligned so you could get a special ammo drop, only to lose it if your have to logout, get disconnected, or timed out. At least now you can get it filled a lot easier.

    Yes, I really hope they allow you to save the ammo when you log off. Very irritating when you lose it after a long run of gameplay...

    Ubisoft US support says this is intentional, so it won't change

    The FAQ titled "Acquiring signature ammo" has the following note at the bottom of the page:

    "Please note that leaving a game session will reset the amount of carried signature ammunition"

    This is frustrating enough to make me want to stop playing this game... Are you listening Ubisoft?

    thats everyone.

    you only get to keep your ammo if youre the host. if you join someone you lose em.

    and i seem to be alright with marksman special ammo as long as i do get the last hit on heads.
    usually have about 6 special ammo by the time we get to last boss

    Im on pc and just the opposite. I get a lot of drops but i can't pick any up. Unless i'm completely out of ammo. And then only one. And i have to use it to be able to pick up another.
