Can we have an option to turn of interactive revive for support class?

I'm an Xbox player, and I really want to turn off interactive revive. If I'm standing near a downed friendly and press [X] to reload, it will just revive my teammate. I can't to what I exactly want to do. This is kinda annoying for me.

  • Hey @ruifxmas,

    I get what you mean, however, I am afraid that it's not really possible to make exceptions for these kinds of situations as of course a revive should always take priority over a reload if you have the option to revive a player when you're standing next to them.

    How else would you like to see it, if I may ask? Feedback is always welcome!

  • @ruifxmas Yep, it sucks but all we can do is look away from the downed player a bit.
    This also happens when trying to arm/disarm in other game modes too.

    1 - You hear the enemy running towards you. Reloading and engaging him is the only option to survive since taking out defibs, reviving, and then switching back means you're certainly dead.

    2 - You're Zain and you need to reload airburst in order to kill a camper that's overlooking you and your downed squad mate in order to perform a revive.

    3 Its always the best practice to attend to yourself first. Since you're the one who is more aware of the situation and has a choice, the game should let you make that choice instead of forcing you into a possibly dangerous situation.
  • Hmm.. maybe it can be another combination of buttons to revive like aim button + x for example, or double press or hold x

  • @EA_Leeuw Ya think? I'd say clearing the area would take priority since there's no point reviving if you're both under fire.

    @59hushy6ywi8, one would (or could...) assume that the area is already clear and you've reloaded everything / you're ready, after clearing the area, before going in for the revive. 🤔

    I would say smoke is the best option here as it would give more time to do both reload or revive, in my opinion the only reason a support should be able to revive is if they picked up a medics kit but hey..

    Yeah but I understand, x is the action button and should be simple and consistent, maybe an option to press again to reload instead for a few milliseconds and cancel the revive.
