I am in a VOIP squad and I requested LAT. I got the LAT. I was shot and I thought it was to late for revival so I went to choose my next kit class (rifleman w/sight - no zoom) as soon as I selected the kit I was revived with the rifelman w/sight kit. I looked for LAT people nearby to see if anyone had picked it up - it's possible, but I couldn't find anyone.

It might not be a bug yet but read on.

I was shot again and again and I kept on being revived until I died.
I get another LAT kit and I get shot and revived. I'm revived again with my default standard rifelmanw/sight kit. The time between getting shot and revived was very little so I checked my squad for my LAT kit (the only guys in the area) and it was gone.

I then threw my ammo bag (out of frustration). I get shot again. I get revived again and I have a brand new ammo bag (not been near supplies).

ammo bags don't give more ammo bags do they?

It was almost like being revived spawned me with the new standard kit. Sadly my entire squad was shot before I was revived again (I had changed my default kit to rifleman with optics and was willing to bet I'd be revived like I was spawning with a new kit).

The first time you got shot with the L-AT could it be that it took the medic longer then 30 seconds to revive you?

Because 30 seconds is the hardcoded limit for kits to disappear. After that you will be revived with the kit you selected in the spawn screen.

Yes ammo bags do give more ammo bags if you have 90% of your ammo and only need to resupply your self by 10% but you mostly were wounded for 31+ secs and was given your default kit because your old kit de-spawned after 30 secs and was gone completely.

That makes sense now. Not a bug at all.

If you are wounded your kit disappears after 30 sec, when you are revived you get the kit you spawned with, and it comes with full ammo.
