This may be related to lag. The items do eventually show up near the place that they're dropped.

Checked the lag theory and items do eventually show up. No other lag is present in any other aspect of the game, can loot from the ground instantly, but cannot place objects on the ground instantly. Timed placing objects on the ground until they display as being on the ground as being roughly a minute at different times and locations.

This only occurs with full ammo boxes for me, and they indeed show up some time after 60 seconds. Full med-kits seem fine in my experience. (tested multiple times)

I saw this bug also, but not always. Sometimes for me.
