Ray Garraty Posted August 9, 2022 Share Posted August 9, 2022 (edited) It doesn't make sense to send an aircraft on a mission to drop an empty box... I mean, even with Loot Abundance set to 25% airdrops must contain at least 1 item, don't you agree?

outhous Posted August 9, 2022 Share Posted August 9, 2022 Maybe it was a case of beer (or really really expensive scotch) but it broke when it landed, and the was nothing to salvage. That's what I tell myself when this happens, but I agree with you wholeheartedly, there should always be something in airdrops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orclover Posted August 9, 2022 Share Posted August 9, 2022 Always wanted them to do an airdrop but with a different colored smoke and slightly different canister, but when it gets to be 100 meters from the ground.... Teach people to be a bit more cautious. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crater Creator Posted August 9, 2022 Share Posted August 9, 2022 Yes, I agree with you OP. I believe Gazz himself once said that if you’re playing on less than 100% loot, it could only be expected that sometimes you don’t get something - that is the setting you chose. But an airdrop is no mere pile of trash. It’s a destination you plan trips around. And that’s what it’s supposed to be, or it would drop right in your lap. So yes, it’s a big letdown if it’s empty, even on a lower loot setting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But sometimes the loot drop even at 100% is deemed rubbish. Now if rubbish is deemed of no value, 25% of rubbish would approach zero very quickly. Probably why you opened a crate of nought, Edited August 9, 2022 by Melange (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is their own fault for giving it the strongest buff in the game. It is the same with sneaking. Why make it so overpowered that mines and traps don't activate, even without any skills? Just ridicoulus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ElCabong Posted August 9, 2022 Share Posted August 9, 2022 Air drops need to contain loot equivalent to your game stage. I'm doing level 4 missions from the trader and yesterday I got a level zero wrench and the goldenrod seed recipe. Not worth the trip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gamida Posted August 10, 2022 Share Posted August 10, 2022 Nothing in airdrops? In an apocalypse with everything being so precious would even the government (or whoever is flying those planes) use the resources of planes, fuel, manpower, etc to fly and empty crate out and drop it. I mean even in a training exercise wouldn't they at least drop of something survivors could use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maharin Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 If you wrench an air drop crate you should get a plane. Why? Never ask why when you suddenly have a plane in your inventory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
