Statistics published in January 2020.

Description[]

It's a menu in the game where the player can select weapons, vehicles and other items that will then be dropped to the player in a shipping container, dropped from a cargo plane. The supply drop is unlocked when the player completes the second main storyline mission of the game, called The Illapa Project.

All the vehicles have to be individually unlocked by completing stunts or other tasks, such as securing regions in Solís, or completing missions.

JC1 has Heavy drop, JC2 has Black Market and JC3 has the Rebel drop system. The supply drop has some upgrades over those:

  • Besides the usual weapons and vehicles, the supply drop can also drop items like Red Barrels, Piñatas, Naval mines, shipping containers, crates and an Uma (a giant stone ball with faces carved into it).
  • If a vehicle is listed as "rigged", it means that the vehicle is equipped with a bomb, similar to the bomb-armed vehicles in the Crash bomb event in Just Cause 3. Rico defuses some of these vehicles in some missions.
  • The drop container's location could always be determined by the player, but now it's also possible to set its orientation.
  • It is much easier to get supplies, because of the multiple pilots, supplies that automatically restock, and the fact that beacons are no longer needed.

Similarly to the Rebel drop from JC3, all ordered weapons arrive in a Weapon Crate.

Many vehicles are unlocked through stunts or securing regions, though some are also unlocked through reaching a certain rank in the Army of Chaos.

See Category:Just Cause 4 Vehicles and Category:Just Cause 4 Weapons for reference.

Pilots[]

The player can now choose their own pilot for the drop. There are 2 pilots unlocked from the start of the game: Fortuna and Bulldog. They are later accompanied by Haragán, Bailarina, Brujo, Humo and Fiera.

The additional pilots are unlocked by reaching new Chaos point levels (called milestones in the video below), starting with level 4 for Haragán, level 6 for Bailarina, level 9 for Brujo, level 11 for Humo, and level 14 for Fiera.

It takes 6 minutes for a pilot to be reset, so more pilots let the player have more frequent drops. Advancing the front into areas of the map which have a factory will say "supply drops will restock +13/14/15% faster" allowing for more drops in a smaller amount of time. These factories are Prospero Aerospacial (aircraft factory), Prospero Astillero (ship factory), Prisa Automóvil (car factory), Prospero Balística (weapons factory), Prospero Robótica (drone factory), Prospero Tanques (tank factory), and Prospero Torretas (turret factory).

Each pilot can have a preset "loadout" of 1 item, for quick selection. However, the same item can only be selected up to three times (or 2 or 4 in the case of Los Demonios.)


Quotes[]

As of some update the pilots have speech lines.

When dropping the player after fast travel:

  • "Go kick some ass down there, hermano!"
  • "Catch you later, Rico. Give 'em hell."
  • "Rico deployed. Hahaha. Hablamos, Rico!"
  • "Thanks for flying with the Army of Chaos."
  • "Oye, spread your wings, Rico!"
  • "It was an honor to fly you, jefe!"

When calling a supply drop:

  • "Dropping supplies, jefe."
  • "Supplies order confirmed. Look out below!"
  • "Copy, drop incoming."
  • "Sí, dropping supplies now."
  • "Roger that, supplies incoming, jefe!"
  • "Supply drop is on its way, hermano!"
  • "Oye Rico, supply drop inbound."

The following tables sort items the same way as the in-game tabs. If you want a list of items along with helpful short descriptions, see Vehicles in Just Cause 4, or Weapons in Just Cause 4.

Trivia[]

  • This gameplay mechanic is the successor to the PDA from Just Cause and Just Cause 2, as well as rebel drop from Just Cause 3.
  • According to a loading screen, weapons unlocked in the supply drop have a higher chance of showing up in weapon crates found all over Solís.
  • As long as the current weapon he wields has enough firepower, accuracy and range, the SkyCastle Cargo Jet that comes in to drop your requested item can be destroyed by Rico Rodriguez. If you somehow catch up to the cargo plane after it drops something (perhaps using a Fellhawk Jet Fighter), you can shoot it down, or even hijack it. If the plane is hijacked by Rico, the pilot that gets thrown out has the character model of a civilian pilot.
    • Requesting an item near a tornado will result in the plane being sucked in, destroyed, and the crate will also fly around before opening.
  • Uniquely, the Demon Egg (1) in supply drop can be dropped up to four times before the pilots need to recharge. Similarly, the Demon Egg (1) can be dropped only twice, probably to compensate. All other items/weapons/vehicles can be dropped up to three times before the pilots need to recharge.
  • Army of Chaos weaponry are not in this gameplay mechanic. As such, they cannot be delivered to Rico. Similarly, the Toy Offroader and various Garland King Studios vehicles are also unavailable in this gameplay mechanic.
    • Despite this, in an early build of Just Cause 4, the Bárbaro Machine Gun was available to be dropped from here. It is not known if that weapon was going to be the only Army of Chaos weapon available to be dropped here, or if all Army of Chaos weaponry was going to be available from here.
