Can't drop Bubb's PDA

[pema]

I picked up Bubb's PDA from some injured guy. I think I was supposed to talk to his friend, but I accidentally killed him. Now I'm stuck with Bubb's PDA taking up space in my inventory with seemingly no way to drop it, since it's some kind of quest item. Anyone know a workaround?

Happened to me too, although I didn't kill the guy. The PDA mentions guy named Shah, and one google showed me we will meet him further into the story - so I hope it's genuine quest item, and not something I will have to carry through the rest of the game.

Yeah I'm also having the same issue. Not sure what is going on tbh.

I hope this gets resolved soon I want my 1x2 back

Happen with Skif pistol too, you can't drop, sell, store just carry on inventory and upgrade.. it's really annoying.

Same here -.-

But the PDA mentions some Bandit boss called Shah who Bubbs owes some cash.
A quick google search for the name Shah showed me that this is actually a character we will be able to meet in some fashion so maybe that's when the PDA might come in handy and is in fact connected to a quest afterall.

Spoiler-free answer: Not really. This PDA really shouldn't be a quest item at all.

I'm starting to think that may be a story element though

Ive got the same thing with both Bubb's PDA and one called "Bandit's PDA". that along with Skifs pistol altogether is taking up my sweet sweet inventory space and adding weight. in a game where both things matter very much this is kind of a big bug to be having imo. fingers crossed it gets hotfixed soon.

Went after a exo suit gained enough funds to upgrade it with Lead slots for artifacts that helped with inventory weight and patched the problem this way. I guess you can call it Padding on the devs' behalf making us players try to find work arounds to BS like this. Patch the game already!

It's not the only PDA with that problem. I have 3 in my inventory, had them for a while now. I submitted a ticket through their main site. Got an email reply that they received it. That was within the first week of release. I would just accept it for now (yeah, I hate it too).

The game is very glitchy, I would expect it to be fixed at some point but they have so many other serious issues to fix. My game keeps freezing on those gravitational anomalies, like 1 out 2 or 3 times I get sucked in. After 100 hours, I've decided to shelf the game for a while.

The hard freeze / crashes are the worst, gotta sit through shaders loading, etc.

The PDA is not for the dude who asked you to grab the body. It will be (possibly) used in another mission.

Uhm... what do you mean "BOTH things matter"? You do know that your inventory is scrollable and will expand if you need more space? (The weight, yes, that's limited)

That guy doesn't even own the game and just makes ♥♥♥♥ up. In reality, inventory space is unlimited and skif's pistol doesn't weight anything.

Potential pirate then?

And to be precise : Skif's pistol does weigh something. about 0.3kg with the upgrades, so basically next to nothing, but not nothing.

Unload and remove all mods from Skif's pistol and the weight will be 0.0. The ammunition and mods have weight, the gun doesn't after you upgrade the weight.

Oh, OK. I though it weighed same a s a regular PDM, and got lighter due to the modification
