noxnoctum Posted October 31, 2009 Share Posted October 31, 2009 It shows 3 rockets in the text on the right side, but no picture for them on the left. The second soldier (not the AT guy) is a casualty. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeyD Posted October 31, 2009 Share Posted October 31, 2009 Its rather hard to see from the pict. If I had to guess I'd say the casualty was carrying the rounds? If the survivor is ble to do buddy aid he may be able to pick up the ammo. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noxnoctum Posted October 31, 2009 Author Share Posted October 31, 2009 If you click on the picture twice it gets bigger (once on the thumbnail, then again on the medium sized pic when it takes you to imageshack) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phil stanbridge Posted October 31, 2009 Share Posted October 31, 2009 Yes it looks like he does have ammo. I think it's handled slightly differently because you are clicking on an enemy unit during the review at the end of battle (I presume). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkEzra Posted October 31, 2009 Share Posted October 31, 2009 The 2 man unit AT has ammo but also a casualty. Until buddy aid is rendered the ammo will remain unavailable. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MeatEtr Posted October 31, 2009 Share Posted October 31, 2009 I've seen this as well, even at the start when acquiring ammo from vehicles. Units will sometimes take ammo/AT but nothing shows up in the inventory and the ammo is still subtracted from the vehicle. It's like it disappears. Also, I noticed with the Javelin if you take the rockets first instead of the launcher they disappear. Gone from the vehicle and the unit. Although this might be fixed by now, last time I did it(but learned from it) was like 1.10. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pvt. Ryan Posted October 31, 2009 Share Posted October 31, 2009 I've seen this with TOWs mounted in Humvees. The screen on the left shows no missiles but the screen on the right shows there are missiles. The until continues to load and fire until the screen on the right shows no more missiles. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
costard Posted November 1, 2009 Share Posted November 1, 2009 I thought that for vehicles the screen on the left shows stuff available to acquire. Certainly I've had no success getting hold of ammo for a Hummer-mounted weapon. The acquired stuff stays in the left screen and doesn't migrate across to the right. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elmar Bijlsma Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 I'm pretty confused about the vehicle ammo too. A TOW armed HMMWV do not access their crew carried TOWs when the ones their vehicle carried are fired. But I'm pretty sure I saw a British vehicle dip in to it's acquirable 7.62 ammo supply. It'd probably be better if the TOWs start in the acquirable ammo supply if they can be made to behave in the same way as the Brit MG ammo. Currently it's 5 TOW for the vehicle, 3 for the crew and 0 acquirable. If all 8 were acquirable, that would keep the options open. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
