Take a look at this locker pic http://www.planetside-universe.com/media/viewer.php?img_id=784
What are those things on the right side of the medical kits?

Would you use your space like this ?

Explain it to them Spork!

Very nice info that is.

I'm curious though why the person has double of 2 guns as well as the other gun type things like the hacker tool, Bank tool and nano dispenser. the ammo and grenades and such make sense since you'd have the option to retrieve them at any time you run out and your near your locker. However the guns don't run out so why carry more then one? Inless of course you expect to die with the weapon or tool in hand in which case you'd lose it and would have a spare in your locker.

Your inventory doesnt stay on you when you die, therefore if you die your coffin could be raided and you would have no equipment - so you put stuff in your locker just in case theres no equip terminal.

OR maybe this person just stuck a load of stuff in there so they could take a screenshot of it (likely as Hamma is doing this for us so we can see whats going down :D )

It's easy to forget to refill your locker. I normally keep doubles as well. Also, sometimes you would have to use your locker multiple times in a row, so you wouldn't have a chance to refill everytime.

Double weapon is a good idea simply because if you die during a retake of your base (no terminals) then you need to make sure you have a weapon. :)

When the NDA lifted on shadowbane thousands of users started saying the game sucked.

I suspect it will be much the opposite with this game.

The Nano Dispenser is a large repair device that is held similarly to a two-handed assault rifle. A soldier can repair any damaged object, MAS, or vehicle using the Nano Dispenser, and uses reservoir points for fuel when repairing. The Nano Dispenser requires an Engineering certification in order to utilize its functionality. It uses a replaceable Armor Canister for fuel.

Err, what's a MAS? Is it an acronym that I've missed, or a misspelling of AMS? ;) :D

I wonder if you can store enemy weapons in a locker for later use, like you loot one and store it. Hmm...

Yes, you can Metroid.

Can you drop stuff from your inventory?(without dieing) If you could it would be cool because you could store alot of enemy weapons in your locker then distribute them to your squad.

that would be cool, i never really thought about being able to use enemy weapons...but that means youd be constantly looting ammo for it too, or can you buy enemy ammo at stations?

A little off topic but after you hack an enemy vehicle, assuming you have the cert,and it survives the battle is there a garage or somthing to keep it in so you can use it again?

In respect to the garage... I heard you can take vehicles apart and store 'em in your locker... I know that doesnt make much sense but oh well, if its not broken don't fix it.

Also about looting enemy ammo... The gauss, cycler, mini chaingun, NC pistol and Jackhammer all use common pool ammo.
So you wont have to be always on the look out for said ammo.

I really wish they would put that back in, I don't see the reason they took it out.

Also i rather like Shadowbane, its atleast keeping me occupied until Planetside.

You cant buy enemy ammmo from a term. You must loot that also

Metroid

Yeah you can drop weapons, but unless your in larger armors you dont have much inventory room. I agree you should have a way to store enemy vehicles. I dont know if any of you played 10six, but there was always a feeling of accomplishment when you captured an enemy rover, took it back to base, built it, and had it patrol aruond proudly. o_O
