What happens when the bug occurs? If you forget to look at what is in the care package while selecting equipment in Arena then you have no way of checking in match what will be in the next care package.
What should be happening instead? Bringing up the Arena map mid match should show you what is in the care package in the same way that you can see what is in the crafting machines in regular mode.
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Play Arena mode Don't look at what is in the care package during equipment selection (or forget what is in it) Try finding out what is in the care package when in match without opening the care package.
Selecting equipment in Arena matches is very high pressure. There is a countdown. You only have so many crafting points. You need to work out what you can afford. What will work best against the current opposing team. What map you are on etc. Because of this is can be easy to not looks at what is in the care package drop, or to look but forget once you are in a match. Unlike regular BR mode where the crafting contents are shown on the map screen in game, the care package contents are not displayed on the map screen in Arena mode. It would be more consistent and helpful to show the care package contents on the Arena mode maps screen.
