Ammo consumption tracked between disco's?
I logged on to our server today at around 1630, observed that my SD mag had 28 rounds in it. Fired 5 rounds, bringing the count to 23. Had to restart the game to deal with artifacts in Cherno, and when I reconnected, my SD mag still had 23 rounds in it. Anyone else experiencing actual magazine count tracking by the hive now?

Yes, and it is making some of the exotic guns like my mp5sd unplayable.

Re: Ammo consumption tracked between disco's?
Its great.
What it means is that for our large groups we'll have to help each other with specific exotic weapon ammo and be sure to ration it really well.
When tents get fixed I'll be running two gun types normally. SVD as exotic situational weapon and an M4/16 variant as my standard.http://www.nytimes.com/2013/03/08/science/earth/global-temperatures-highest-in-4000-years-study-says.html?_r=0

Re: Ammo consumption tracked between disco's?
Im not going to post the way on a public forum, but I've accidently found a way to reload all of your half empty mags. I'm not going to be doing it though, since the method is very likely to produce bugs, probably including lost backpacks.

Re: Ammo consumption tracked between disco's?
Ammunition tracking was introduced 2 patches ago, though my mags are occasionally restocked at random.
My Resume includes Pirate and Mercenary, what else do you want.

When you can't run anymore, you crawl and when you can't do that, you find someone to carry you.

Re: Ammo consumption tracked between disco's?
I knew I should have kept my 1911+7 mags instead of trading up for the M9SD+1 mag...

This is why I stick by and stay at the Airfield so much.

Re: Ammo consumption tracked between disco's?
To be honest, I happen to use the swap type ammo. They tend to get refilled every time you log back in...

My SVD is going to cry when she runs out of her ammo. Good news? I have more than 30 clips

Re: Ammo consumption tracked between disco's?
The tracking does seem to be hit or miss still. More times than not I am logging in with refilled mags. We should probably start preparrijg our mindsets for full tracking though, as the system is likely only going to improve from here on out.
