Thanks. Any Idea what is in the temp – supply pack? I want more high level upgrades but it appears the only way is buying the spec level pack.

Hey Warlawx,
I believe the temp – supply pack comes with just the preorder DLC exclusive content. I haven’t found a full list, but the temp packs don’t last long, so buy when you can if you’re looking for more weapons! There’s at least one DLC weapon per weapon type.

The temp supply pack, is all the bits you need when fighting… but lots of them….
EG –
Health packs
Ammo packs
Spec ops packs

This is incorrect you cannot unlock uncommon items with recruit packs unless its by chance (1-5% chance)

Hey good thing someone done this, you may need to update it as i got a Cobra Missile Launcher Capacity Upgrade +1 in a Vet pack and also a Do-over card for powers in a Vet pack as well………other than that great work

The comments about receiving stuff in a pack below its listed level read the test above the chart.
“All unlocks are random. Each pack will include a certain rarity of unlock.
Every item in the list below can be acquired through the Recruit Pack, once you run out Common and Uncommon Items, you’ll begin to unlock Rare and Ultra Rare Items.”
So it is possible to get a rare from a recruit but its extremely uncommon, as for unlocking uncommons in a recruit pack I’ve gotten about 6 in a row now. Either I have extremely good luck or my chance has gone up

The thing about receiving items above uncommon is not true because after unlocking everything and maxing recruit u only get same character cards even after u unlock all appearance and I have test this personally

To someone starting, I advice getting multiple “Recruit Pack” at the beginning and for the following reasons.
- You can quickly max out your default weapons up to Lv.10 since they are so cheap. Lv.10 starter weapons are “as” if not “stronger” than most Uncommon/Rare weapon at Lv.1 (That is without taking into consideration some “usefulness” of certain weapons)
- You will gain color mods for all your human character which is cool.
- Same as weapon, you will gain all starting weapon mods as well.
- The best thing about leveling is that once they are at Lv.10 your mods/weapons will not appear again, leaving more chances for other mods/weapons to be selected. (What I’m saying is that once a weapon is Lv.10, it is taken out of the random list table)
- Buying Recruit Pack also allows you the chance for Uncommon items, at a cheaper cost while getting all your starting items to Lv.10
Hope this helped someone,
Ben

“Every item in the list below can be acquired through the Recruit Pack, once you run out Common and Uncommon Items, you’ll begin to unlock Rare and Ultra Rare Items.”
I don’t know where you got that from but it seems not right. After you have everything unlocked for common, you simply unlock all the male/female human outfit stuff again and again and again …

Very useful, how about an up-date for the DLC.
