is there a larger back pack?

[[PVP] Boss Prime]

Just asking, it's getting annoying. I'm not requesting a magical bag, a bottomless pit, but something large. Or robot mule, something.

No, but there is a skill perk that doubles the craftable/ammo you can carry.

If you struggling with storage, use containers around the map to stash 20 items.

In certain BARD facilities there is are Tubes that serve as "bank" system that stores 100 items

Use the Tubes for storage, mainly weapons as it will help with upgrades

there storage tube in the interchange and in some bunker, just try using the gun you only need on you, leave two LG free slot open and for the backpack inventory either carry a melee or handgun three health item and optional carry two/three throwable nade/molotov now you should have 6-7 free slot of backpack inventory to loot and if your near the tube store item you dont need.

Yeah after beating the game once I realize you don't need to pick everything up and if you do just spend a few minutes storing it in the tubes. I think we're all a bunk of pack rats struggling to break out of our ways hah

Yeh we have been trained by endless games that rule one is that you pickup everything especially survival games it will be needed it eventually :) Then they make one you don't need to and suddenly you realise that you have a compulsive looting problem. I suppose I should reach out and get help but Nah I'm honestly a natural scavenger and junk collector.

games have conditioned you to hoard but there isnt any reason to hoard anything in atomfall

Don't pick everything up, store a bunch and craft when you need.

Doesn’t help with weapon management. You have to decide which weapons to keep and you have no space to pick more and sell or craft upgrades. I have to drop temporarily 2 large weapons when I want to upgrade a standard tier weapon to pristine from 2 rusty ones. The weapon management sucks.

PS
Doesn’t apply to pistols and one small SMG, they take a standard slot.

who said people are picking everything up though?

when the game keeps giving you stuff just for looking in a building on your way to an objective, and then again at the next building, you expect to be able to store some of it and not get to the objective with a full inventory where you know there will be something else.

the balance between the loot being available and the carry space is not right. especially as the bartering system means you probably want to hang on to 4 or 5 items which a trader likes to get that skill line unlocked, but without making a special trip to that trader.

RE4 did inventory right because it was perfectly balanced in terms of size vs loot drops. with a semi-open world the inventory size needs to be more forgiving.
