i play for a team which plays hopper + 2 every game but i carry empty pods out. using a 4 pod pack i load my 2 full pots to the left so my sh!t hand can make easy use of the full pots and the empties go on the right where i wont need to touch em. i think the reason why i do it is cause it feels better on my back when strapped tight to me. having 2 pods on the left and none on the right feels wierd and i like to keep things cemetrical. little querky but thats my reason for it. ive never been shot in my empty pots and it doesnt slow me down. there is no downside with carrying empties.
then put your 2 full pods into the middle of your pack and stretch a little further you big girl :p

Has any one actually thought that maybe those players who START with (for example) 3 full & an empty pod went ON the field with 4 full pods but used 1 of them to fill/ top up there hopper just before the start! It only seems logical if, like me, you cant be arsed to have done it earlier!!! lol:eek:

yes, it was discussed earlier in the thread... :rolleyes:

I think most people are in agreement that its just down to accidents... when you slide, pots can come open...

Then why go to the hassle of putting it back in?, just leave it at the chrony station , or the start gate.

This thread has been done to death now.

this thread has changed my mind about carryin empties.. from now on i will carry only full pods. might i add i carried empty pods last year. havent done it this year. the battlepack i had was rather flimsy and the extra pods held its form better. now i have a dye attackpack there is no need for the empties.
