Re: Auto Ammo Pickup

I see pros and Con to this:

Pros:


- Very convenient to pick up the ammo that you need. No need to search through what guns you already have

- Can make gameplay faster where you just run through a building picking up the ammo that you need without having to stop.

- Ammo will need to be fully stack able (I have only played this game a few hours and if I saw this correctly, ammo was only stackable up to a certain point then it would take up another inventory slot)

Con :

- Will be harder to coordinate with teammates on ammo levels. If you automatically pick up the ammo, it might be easy to forget a teammate needs it more then you. You also might not be able to get a chance to ping the ammo for someone else. By the time you are close enough to know what it is, the ammo is already in your inventory slot.

- Your inventory slots could go away faster. (See 3rd point in pro case). Since the ammo is only stackable to a point, then if you have auto pick up, you might automatically use up another inventory slot when you didn't want to.

Edit:

Some how, the word con is censored? IDK. Also as another point, PUBG Mobile implements auto pickup.

    One con I dont agree with is coordinating with team mates. Unless you go in a 3 man squad this never happens. In all my games I think I have had one person actually drop ammo when requested.

    In regard to the second con. A setting to set max auto pick up slots. Aka you can pick up settings to set auto pick up to fill 2 slots per ammo type. I believe pubg mobile has a similar auto pick up function and I also believe other mobile BR have this so its not an impossible feature to add.


    Dont get me wrong I know its a lot of work and I know its on a long list of stuff we could do with but might never get.. But I do believe that adding features that improve gameplay even if a small amount i s the difference between a good game and a great game
