The devs really need to work on it, as it has a number of glaring errors: 1. Machine Pistol - takes up 8 squares, yet the image only uses 6. 2. Pistols - use the same amount of squares as a 200-round case of Heavy Rifle ammo. (pistols are smaller than a case of heavy ammo). 3. Pistol ammo - 1 round can fit into a bottle of Painkillers, yet 1 round takes 2 squares. 4. Nutrient Bars - you can have 5 bars in a single square, yet a pack of 2 bars takes 2 squares. The bottle (3 bars) takes up the same space as the 200 rounds of Heavy Rifle ammo. All nutrients should fit in one square. Two bottles would be two squares.

I also agree the inventory needs to be reworked.

I noticed this as well but I just grouped it in with all the other problems I had with the game and labeled it "less than stellar gameplay".

The inventory was one of the first things I noticed. It needs to be reworked.

Hehe didn't really get those problems but... why do mines take up less room when they are combined together compared to blank mines?

Yeah, they should make it more like the Mass Effect 1 inventory. :P.

I only had beef with one granade taking up a single unstackable slot.

Who cares...its a game. Its not supposed to have a inventory system solely based on realism. its supposed to have a inventory system based on balance...

If people have a problem with Topse's gripes with the inventory, why are they posting in here, again? :roll:

it's called balance, dude...suspend your disbelief a little bit to allow the game to be challenging. Apparently being grafted with advanced artificial limbs and nanotechnology is ok, but the second a powerbar takes up more space than a round of pistol ammunition, your panties get in a bunch.

Chillax, brah, and enjoy the ride.

You might not think it's an issue, but obviously some of us do. You're acting as if we're saying the game is god-awful because of the inventory when we aren't. Perhaps you shouldn't be posting in here if you're prone to such defensiveness.

Because a forum is about discussing things and within a discussion not everyone agrees ;)

My problem was with HOW people were disagreeing, not that they disagreed.

3. Pistol ammo - 1 round can fit into a bottle of Painkillers, yet 1 round takes 2 squares. An entire clip takes up 2 squares.

4. Nutrient Bars - you can have 5 bars in a single square, yet a pack of 2 bars takes 2 squares.The bottle (3 bars) takes up the same space as the 200 rounds of Heavy Rifle ammo. All nutrients should fit in one square. Two bottles would be two squares. Stack up on the kind you feel fits your needs best.topsemag55

I expect you're not supposed to carry around 4 weapons along with 3 kinds of grenades and ample supplies of powerups and ammo.

The inventory didn't really bother me as I was playing it. Only minor issue I had with it is the failure of the context menu popping up when I right click on something (seemed I had to click a few times for the darn thing to pop up sometimes). But out of all the items I made use of, I sure as heck was carrying more junk than necessary as I am a pack rat in these types of games.
