Starting kit in the escape pod

rhys_elcins

so I've just been on Trello, and seen the following card:

Change starting loot in Escape Pod to be non-random and suppliesin list Backlog
Description
Food, water, batteries, flares

is it me or does it seem to be missing a couple of key survival items - that is to say - a KNIFE, and a medpack?
or is this deliberate and if so what is the story behind this?

This is deliberate, although they could add the other two items as well later on. Things are still being worked out and aren't static with what they decide.

im just glad they will make it not random.
It was.. weird... it felt weird.

I'd think that the Medkit would be in the First Aid locker on the wall.
A knife should diffidently in there.

I believe haveing a medkit in the starting kit is somthing realy basic that could realy help at the start of the game and it could be even more cool/smart to like find it in the first aid locker

I believe the devs will add medkit into the locker. Furthermore, the player will use the extinguisher. That item now lies on the floor. The gameplay in escape will further improve (I say this based on the trello info)

I think I also saw on Trello that you will start injured, so the medpack might be needed right away.

There is a trellis for putting a medkit in the media locker, possibly with a knife as well (a knife or pair scissors can typically be found in them.
