Why can't my team pick up the supplies I dropped in WARDOGS?

Why can't my team pick up the supplies I dropped in WARDOGS?

Because you unloaded them outside the FOB. PapaKow watched this cost a team at least six pallets on Saturday 19 September 2026: supplies have to be dropped inside the square of the Forward Operating Base marked on your map, or they're out of range and nobody can collect them.

That's the whole answer. The rest of this is how not to be that guy.

Where do you have to unload supplies in WARDOGS?

Inside the FOB area shown on your map. Not near it. Inside it.

If you don't unload your supplies within the square or area of the Forward Operating Base, we cannot collect them. They're out of range. It needs to be in range, within that square. On Saturday night we ended up with at least six pallets sitting outside, useless, because people dropped and drove off.

Drive in, get inside the walls of the base, and unload in the vicinity of the FOB.

How do you collect supplies at the FOB in WARDOGS?

Run up to the dropped pallet and hold F. It takes about 20 seconds — I haven't timed it exactly — and the supplies are added to the FOB.

What you can bring in on a truck is building supplies, fuel supplies, ammo supplies, mechanical supplies, and whatever else you've loaded. Two pallets per truck.

Why do supplies unload in front of my truck in WARDOGS?

Because the game unloads at both ends. With two pallets, one drops off the rear of the truck and one off the front. Worth knowing before you pick your spot, because it's how people wedge themselves in.

I watched exactly that. We were under fire, a teammate drove up to the gate and unloaded right in front of it, tried to reverse, and got stuck between his own two pallets. I was fourth in line — a pallet, his truck, a pallet, then me. I reversed, tried to drive away, and got killed. That was 10k gone on a truck, supplies and a hammer, and I hadn't done a thing with any of it.

Don't block the gate

If there's one thing to take from this, it's that. Don't block the gate.

Truck drivers rolling up and unloading just outside the base is the most common version of this mistake. It strands the supplies and it corks the entrance for everyone behind you, usually while the base is under attack.

We're still early in WARDOGS and a lot of people are genuinely still learning it. I come across new players constantly, and I'd rather they read this than get screamed at over VoIP. Drive in, unload inside the FOB square, hold F, get out.
