Idea that may make sense

[zack991]

I know when playing with a group and a buddies goes down we try to grab their gear.  Now we always dont have room to carry everything. I was wondering if this idea ever came up.

Maybe there can be a mechanic  where you can fireman carry  your buddies body and gear to extract. Now I would say you would be restricted to a pistol only and your stamina takes a large hit. That way if you are close to a extract you can carry them home or hide the body so they can get most of their stuff back. On AD we used to be carry our guys with full kit. It absolutely sucked and we were slow but it was possible. To at least get them out of harm's way.

Not a horrible idea! There would be a reason for this once the clan features get implemented.. maybe the buddy will then get the stuff back to the clan/squad stash in Hideout?

I also remember carrying "wounded" mates in training. Sucks in the summer, in the winter you can just drag them on the snow, much easier!

I wouldn't mind a body drag either. Especially with all the spawn camping, it would be nice to kill the camper and either drag or carry a buddie and get points for "body recovery". I dont miss those hot days at Fort Polk doing that training as a grunt. That or maybe a drag bag to put them in and drag them home and still have use of your primary
