  • Can confirm same issue.

    Also with the support shield.

    You get a white outline, meaning it is okay to place. It plays the animation, and uses the item in your inventory... but isn't laid.

    If you resupply, it suddenly appears where you placed it.

  • There is also a second issue that, if you try and place when it's outlined red, it uses it in your inventory without placing it.

  • Agreed this happened to me as well. I would throw the supply bag down refill another support shield then place it down. Then the previous support shield I had placed shows up where I placed it previously. Usually it was as a teammate ran by as I was placing it and/or near rubble.
