Silenced pistol/ Subsonic ammo blueprints....

[PR PUNISHER]

So just finished the bounty to get the subsonic ammo, which in its self was tricky. To my amazement and massive dissapointment it askes you to basically waste your requisition packs. A pack for 12 lousy ammo, I am glad/ happy that the devs are still giving us updates three years later but this new blue print and the silence pistol blueprints are a complete waste.

Devs if you see this please revamp the crafting items for the pistol and ammo, a req pack is out of the question. Why not make it like 50 metal, 50 chemical, 50 alcohol, and so forth, but req packs.....

Again, Im thankful to the devs for continued support but this is not how you expand the content ingame, the cost is too high, especially for those that need the req packs to level up.

You're not serious with this, are you?

No way, even if I play the game for 5,000 more hours, I still wouldn't use this blueprint. Unless you dupe, it's a big no.

3 metal 5 chem and 2 alcohol seems reasonable. Or just add subsonic ammo in vendors.

Also, I heard you can get subsonic ammo from Prison heist and it's better, I haven't tried it yet though.

Alcohol to make pistol ammunition? lol

This was more towards creating the guns, but yea lower matterial for the bullets.

You can't use the req packs to level up. Once you have the bounty what's it called, get to know your enemy or something, they serve no purpose afaik.

Not sure what the big problem is.

Does the "Collect 50 Requisition Packs" bounty remove all 50 from your inventory once collected?

Is there any other use for the Requisition Packs besides the subsonic pistol and ammo? Serious question, I do not know.


Subsonic ammo still appears in police vans in packs of 30. You can carry a max of 45 bullets for it.

I've collected 49 (just got 4 more!) Req packs over the past few days making progress towards the bounty. You get 3, sometimes 4 packs per encounter. Four packs gives (three) more bullets than you can even carry. Being able to craft bullets on the fly without needing to go to a specific point can be really powerful.

EDIT: Ah, PR PUNISHER, you are confusing the Disaster Relief On-Site Packages (DROP packages) for the Requisition Packs. DROP packs are for levelling up. Requisition Packs are what is needed for the gun and ammo, and they have no other use except for the gun and ammo.

No they don't get removed nor do they serve any other purpose afaik.
And they're easy to find, each in-game day you'll find two or three parties of the dudes that drop them, three or four packs a party, if the silenced pistol is your thing you can have plenty of ammo for it.

I had a large inventory of the Req Packs and glad I did! The blueprint reward for the Subterfuge mission was easy-peasy and I, too, am glad I can craft ammo on the fly. I can craft bolts and arrows...don't use the weapon much but good for Old Town encounters with multiple humans.

[Speedbump]

Nah it's fine as is. If you don't like it, don't use it. It's not like it's rare anyway. It's in the prison, vans etc. Easy peasy.

BZZT! That's wrong! If you're following the bounty and collect your 50th pack, all 50 of them go away immediately.

I think I'll load the old save I created, because I care much more about having 50*12 bullets than I do about an outfit I won't really see.

Oh, my bad, I stand corrected.
I've got over a hundred of them in my inventory just by running around in Old Town, so I figured that included the 50 from the bounty, didn't really pay much attention, since up till now they were useless anyway.

[PR PUNISHER]

After looking this up I realized that req packs arent the packs you pickup from the drops. Also realized that in both of my playthoughs, I have never even seen a req pack before, nor do I have any in my inventory......WTF.....This is news to me.

[Stabbey]

That's because the Requisition packs are new, from Content Drop #0. They apear on black-clad mercenaries in Old Town who appear on rooftops in groups of 3 or 4, with one of them having a military rifle (if four mercs, two have rifles). I recommend that you do NOT pick up the "Know Your Enemy" bounty.

Well they aren't new anymore, they've been out for a while.

Yeah I just tried to get ammo from Prison heist, don't bother there is no subsonic ammo there.

OP, you might want to note that the Torn Whisper blueprint from the Classifier Operation DLC is a silenced pistol that takes regular pistol ammo.
