Would It be possible for someone with oxygen to make a unit with a combatpack as well as webbing, because I believe this lack of bergens etc. is one of the most unrealistic things in the game.
Imagine... your on along recon mission you spot an enemy patrol laden down with 30kg-40kg of equipment, your group dumps your packs and lay an ambush. Because the enemy are laden down they can't run as fast as you, so you mow them down.
After the ambush you collect your packs, rearm from them and leave for another strike.
So to sum up combat packs could do the following things:
1.Act as mobile ammo boxes with mags, grenades, charges, mines, etc.
2.Slow down any unit carrying them, like when you get shot in the legs but to a lesser extent.
3. Have the ability to be dumped and retrieved later, with these commands being in the action menu and orders.
e.g. 2 drop pack
2 retrieve pack etc..
And If not able to be made with oxygen they should be in Operation flashpoint 2 if it ever comes out.
