Question about the stim boxes

[NinKirin]

The stim boxes that are found spread across the map, didn't they give 4 stims per box? I just noticed while playing that they only give 2 now, was this in the patch notes? Cause I swear they used to give 4

just 2
you maybe picked 2 boxes.

Actually, after checking an old VOD from Eravin, (https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2305385466) at 53:15 he picks up a stim box while missing 3 stims, and that box gives him 3 stims, so I don't think I am misremembering

it certainly was 4 stims.
dont know what would´ve happened when one was using a +2 stim armor, as i never used that.

maybe it is currently just as broken as the supply backpack, which only gives ammo and no stims when handing out packs to other players. obviously that´s not really a problem for supply pack users, so i think it should stay like this.

its funny that the box is big enough to carry 6 but you get only 2
either the stims are beer bottle sized or the package is full of nothing

I can probably find an old ohdough video since he loves using medic armor, and see from there, but yea I wonder what happened to cause this change

[Malidictus]

You're not misremembering. Stim boxes always gave 2 stims, but did so twice in multiplayer. You'd get two instances of +2 stims. You only got 2 when solo. We're not sure why this behaviour was the way it was, but it seems to have changed. Stim boxes now give just one instance of +2 stims. What an odd change to make without putting it in the patch notes.

[NinKirin]

Huh...... weird, that's why there's a bit of a delay when eravin grabs stims, for a second or so it says 2, then it says he picked up 3

medicine that almost instantly fixes broken legs & arms, gives back endurance and provides immunity against any form of harm (except instant death) for a couple of seconds probably comes with packaging.
everything comes with packaging.

as said, possibly a bug that´s somehow connected with handind out packs from the supply packback.

changes like this should definitely be in the patchnotes.

Yeah they always used to give +4 stims, since the Illuminate patch they now only give out 2 somehow.

Is the 'only 2 stims' higher in difficulty than the '4' you mentioned? I believe higher difficulty can also affect stuff like how you need 30 civilians in Dif8 than 20 civilians in lower levels.

[NinKirin]

Nah, we used to get 4 stims no matter the difficulty, even when I played super helldive and such

PATCH 01.002.001

Reports have surfaced of some Helldivers sneaking extra stims into their resupply bags—those caught have been tried and sent for re-education

This fixes an issue with incorrect amount of stims being granted in resupplies

[NinKirin]

Yea, but isn't that for resupplies? I'm talking about the stim boxes spread across the map lol

[Valhalla Awaits]

It has always been just 2.

[Foxador]

I've only ever gotten 2 stims for picking up a pack on the ground
