Seeing this game is by far the most hardcore mmo ive played, backpacks should be implemented in the game to increase carry weight. Different types of bags and in order for the bag to be used it needs to be in one of the hands

Bag        Carry Weight Added
Fanny Pack           1-3lbs
Hobo Bag              5-10lbs
Trash bag             10-25lbs
Duffel bag             10-35lbs
Back pack             35-50lbs
Combat Ruck         80lbs

Just throwing it out there.

This will actually be of much use especially that after wipe max possible carry weight will be 20 kilos less than now YET resources gonna respawn so you will need more carry weight especially if you are a loner (nothing do do with loner trait)

I support the idea on 95% (i dont like names of some sacks/backpacks) since i had this idea as well!

It's okay idea. Some notes:

- There doesn't need to be so much variation. 2 or 3 bags is enough.

- They best work so that you just have one in inventory and it incrases CW. No opening bags, taking stuff in and out. Just makes things complicated.

True

It would be ok if there was a slot for it like for armor (it could actually decrease AC)

Yup. Then engine don't need much changes. If we do it with opening bags style then engine need more changes and updating engine takes forever for that..
2 bags max sounds good for me.

I thought they already had the ability to open bags ingame already. I remember finding one in Gizmo's room after killing him in FO1 so why would the engine need any changing just to open a bag? Making it so it changes your carry weight might need some work though. I'm not sure how much work is required to make different bag graphics

It's still very buggy and can produce lots of exploits (sometimes items disappear in there, sometimes they get duplicated). I also agree with avv that it is a bit cumbersome to have the bags as seperate containers within your inventory. As the engine allows lots of new additional item slots in the inventory, creating one just for backpacks would be no biggy aswell. For the start, you don't even need additional graphics rendered on the character model - this can be done later.

i feel u for that, just figured the fanny pack (u know that little pouch ur dad always wore on family vacations) as more of a gag. but different bags that can be crafted and bought. but im also just throwing out ideas for the devs

now that would be a good idea then that would eliminate the need to have it in one of ur hands

But bags allow posting nice array of explosives:d.

To me we're already using a backpack.   I mean... how else are we carrying so much stuff?

I was using backpack as a general term. Meaning we are already using some form of carrying device rather than putting things into our pockets.  We have a carry weight system.  What this generally means is that based on our strength there is only so much weight that we can carry.  A backpack doesn't lessen the weight of things.  Unless of course we want to add magic devices like a bag of holding.
