Why cant I pick booster?

[Inardesco]

Just wanted to pick a booster but the game refused to allow the booster to be picked?

did someone have the same booster activated? if so you can only have on of each.

Exactly. Check the other players loadouts.

Well, one one hand, boosters affect the entire squad, so you can only have one of each (i.e no 2 people using a health booster).

On the other hand, the game's buggy as heck and often just doesn't let you pick anything.

Was it a new mission or a mission already in progress?
If it was in progress, it's possible the booster was selected by a player, then that player left the game.

You can't pick the same booster, if someone else already picked it up. So they do not duplicate or stack up, which is kinda silly because if someone with booster leaves mid game then you have debuff.

Also I think you can have only one booster per team at high difficulty settings.

I never actually checked if the booster effect was disappearing if the player left the game, it's possible.

However, at higher levels, it's still one booster per player.

You can still have all boosters on 7, but I haven't gone higher.
That's a good tip about the people leaving game, i hadn't considered that

I just joined an ongoing mission. It seems you cant use boosters if you join a mission thats already started
