Stealth Saboteur: Carries a REK and four ACEs. Infiltration suit, of course. (http://planetside-universe.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=1833&pagenumber=4)
-SmokeJumper

We know that the Agile armor holds 9x9 and the Standard 6x9. We can only gues that the Inlf. suit is around 3x9 and the reinforced arounnd 12x9.

But 3x9 is not big enough to carry 4 ACEs unless they are the size of grenades (2x2), which I doesn't make sense.

ACE's are one shot items, much like medkits. Medkits are 2x4. Lets assume ACEs are also 2x4 (a better assumption than 2x2). That would mean that the IS inventory has to be 4x9 (or 8, but that doesn't make sense either).

We know the truth!! Now you can go ahead and show us a screenshot!!!

unless you can stack ACE's like you can nade's.... (4 to a stack is my guess.)

I doubt it. Its inventory would be ungodly tiny if it could only carry one stack.

Tobias

like 3X9 or 4X9, but it think it does have a tiny inventory, like a few boxes of ammo or one box ammo and some nades or one box ammo and some tool, or no exta ammo and tools and nades.

Where did you hear that grenades can stack?

Weren't they stacking in the screenshots we have seen? I could be wrong.

This is the only inv-ss with grenades showing:

http://planetside-universe.com/media/viewer.php?cat_id=31&img_id=19

There is one grenade in the inventory, and one in a weapon slot. No stacking (not here anyway).

I'd be surprised if grenades stack myself. I'm sure they wan to keep the number you can carry under strict control. If they could stack, people could theoretically go in with dozens of grenades and just spam them all over the place. Not a lot of fun, that.

An ACE is 3x3. So is a REK. Talk amongst yourselves. ;)

REK in the pistol holster, 4 ACEs in the 6x6 inventory?

Yuyi
2003-01-30, 06:40 PM
me = n00b for not knowing what REK and ACE? :p

Mazelmavin
2003-01-30, 06:45 PM
It has to be 6x6. That is the smallest it can be and still fit the ACE's... unless your inventory is shaped like a Tetris piece.

But since we now know that inventory is not stuck at *x9, that opens up the chance for the MAX to be 12x12. 15x9 always sounded odd.

So this is what I think:

Infl. 6x6
Stan. 6x9
Agile 9x9
Rein. 12x9 (9x12?)
Max 12x12

Not that it really matters...

Yuyi
2003-01-30, 06:45 PM
I think they said max can't carry much just enough for ammo.

Camping Carl

Perhaps empire specific maxes have different size inventories? Unlikely, I know, but it's possible right?

Tobias
2003-01-30, 06:57 PM
Oks, I cant find a screen shot to prove Im right, so i might have been wrong, might have.

Airlift
2003-01-30, 07:02 PM
The reason 6x6 makes sense is because rifles are 9 length and this way the stealth can't even carry a rifle in inventory.

Just enough to peak our interest but not enough to give us answers.

Damn you you clever Dev!!! :p

Well, no matter how much it can carry, it will be a damn fine suit.

Good point. With that we indead now know that the IS inv. is 6x6. Although I still think there is a chance for a L-shaped Tetris piece inventory.

Looks to me that the REK will go in the pistol slot, if there is a sepret one for weapons, or already be equipped and the 4 ACEs will go in the regular inventor box. Since these two units are the same size (3x3) they would just swap out in the inventory box with no prob.

They can't USE anything but ammo and health kits. They can CARRY big piles of stuff. The idea being that they can hand stuff out to their squad-mates... kind of a locker with legs.

I thought they said it just can't use much (MAX armor too bulky to type or perform surgery/first aid or whatever)

No, they said something to the effect of they can't use every utility device, grenade, or otherwise. They have storage compartments to support their allies and carry ammunition though (although they may simply have a default ammunition ammount and then a separate storage compartment). MAX armor will be able to do very little more than kill. That's their specialty, and their limited range of actions is the cost of that specialty.

Something stackable, not a nade...but hey things stack.

I don't see anything stakin in those screens, but whatever.

Also, I don't think the inf can carry the supressor so take the supressor's size into account, i think it's smaller than a rifle.

The devs are little evil, when they don't reveal how much inventory storage an infiltration suit or MAX have. We wouldn't have anything to discuss and talk about, if they revealed everything. :D

I think inventory space circle around x9 as many other don't think.

Infiltration suit = 3x9
Standard = 6x9
Agile armor = 9x9
Reinforced armor = 12x9
MAX = 15x9 or 18x9

Why 3x9 inventory space for infiltration suit?
===================================
SmokeJumper revealed that he can carry one REK and 4 ACE. U carry a REK in 1st pistol holster, an ACE in 2nd pistol holster and 3 ACE (3x3) in the inventory (3x9). This means total of 1 REK and 4 ACE. This is what SmokeJumper means. Very tiny inventory space. :)

Other examples
==============
U can carry an AMP in 1st pistol holster, an REK in 2nd pistol holster and 3 stacks of ammo (3x3/stack) for pistol in the inventory (3x9).

U can carry an AMP in 1st pistol holster, a grenade in 2nd pistol holster and 1 stack of ammo (3x3/stack) for pistol and 3 grenades (2x2) in the inventory.

not to shoot you down but the inf suit only has 1 pistol slot and a knife slot.

Moloch
2003-02-16, 12:14 PM
heh, yeah, they only have one smaller-than-supressor pistol slot.

Croco,

Dave Georgeson, the producer, has already stated in this thread that the inventory space for the infiltration suit is 6 by 6.

Vauss? Can I get some of whatever it is you're taking? Must be good stuff.


This is the ONLY THING SJ has said in this thread (check for yourself if you don't believe me):

An ACE is 3x3. So is a REK. Talk amongst yourselves.

He did say, in an entirely different thread, that an infiltration suit can carry a pistol and for ACE's.

MazelMavin and Airlift have said 6x6, but they're just making educated guesses.

The jury is still out.

And a rifle COULD fit even in that inventory. The punshier (for sure) and supressor (almost certainly) are 3x6, so ithey would fit. USELESS, but there's enough room.

HRR Raven

A surpressor wouldn't be useless. You'd have enough room for 2 clips. Considering it's silenced, that would be quite valuable. Just unload into someone's back, and then stop firing and recloak. Or, stab them in the back, then recloak, then equip the gun, then finish them. There's potential here if you can fit a supressor in your inventory for some serious pain.

That's why I think it'll be something funny tetris-shaped inventory so you can't fit anything bigger than 3x3, thus limiting you to the weakest pistol and ammo in your inventory.

Im not getting into the stealth suit invintory size thing I've already made my point in the other thread but, I'm curiousy to know where you got that info that a rifle could fit into the inventory of the stealth suit? The supressor isin't a rilfe btw it's a sub machine gun which is a totaly different class and a smaller one too.

Subliminal
2003-02-16, 07:37 PM
Why even argue/speculate in the first place? Nothing is final, hell they could change it completely so that it can carry a suppressor, that is if it already cannot.

And besides, who cares if a ghost can carry a rifle or not, they can't use it.

That's why I think it'll be something funny tetris-shaped inventory so you can't fit anything bigger than 3x3, thus limiting you to the weakest pistol and ammo in your inventory. Actually it would be useless. You can only use a weapon once it's been placed in a slot, and since there's no rifle slot, you can't 'equip' it. But you CAN still carry it around with you, not that it'd do much good other than waste space. MAXs can also carry all kinds of weapons, equipment, ammo, etc. but they just can't use any of it (except for the ammo for their arm mounted weapons of course). They can however give it to someone who can.

Basically, just cause you can carry stuff doesn't mean you can use it. You have to equip it first before you can, and you can't equip it if you don't have the correct slot for it. Since you can carry weapons in your inventory, you can have more weapons on you than you have slots for that weapon, but can only use what's currently in the slot(s). And the suppressor is a rifle sized weapon AFAIK. I think there's even a screenshot of that in an inventory screen somewhere...

Ah yes, here it is:
http://www.planetside-universe.com/media/viewer.php?img_id=84

Suppressors are 3x6, pistol slots are 3x3.

Saint
2003-02-26, 02:49 AM
SJ gave enough hints to us in this thread that we can safely say that a stealths inv is 6x6

If an ACE is 3x3 then this is how his ghost looks

4 ACEs fill up inventory, REK in pistol slot and Knife in knife slot.

I'm going to have to agree with Unknown, in terms of the inventory being whatever-sized, but the character simply cannot equip a rifle-sized (or suppressor-sized) weapon. If that were not the case, you could simply drop a weapon in your locker, change into an Infil suit, and carry the rifle.

However, you (and some friends) could sneak into a base, hack THEIR lockers to get YOUR stuff out, change into real fighting armor, and appear in the control room, a fully armed and fully operational battle station!

Fire at will, commander.
