Unintentional Loadout Swap when reviving

A lot of times when reviving a teammate, I unintentionally swap my loadout with a random player’s class and loadout.
Is anyone else having this issue?
Is there a way to prevent this? It would be nice if reviving could be set to Interact (Tap) and picking up a loadout to Interact (Hold), or even to a completely separate key.

    Just to confirm this is still a nuisance.

    I think the fix should be a simple one. Either the kit doesn't appear on the ground until the player gives up or the revive timer expires or the kit does not fall under them or beside them when downed. Give it a two foot radius on the drop area around the downed player.

    I think the first option proves to be more efficient.

    This still needs to be fixed.

    I had hopes that they would've fixed it in BF 6's launch version as it is a recurring mistake in the franchise since squad revive/ interact revive was introduced.

    BF V fixed the issue by doing what OP already described. BF 2042 also made the same mistake on launch and then fixed it and additionally introduced making hold reload to the weapon pickup (though I think it is an issue with controller as revive, reload, and weapon pickup are on the same button?).

    Either solution could work for BF 6.

  • yes, this kit swap function is completly annoying and very often ive died because of this.
    Let us optionally disable it or bind to other key.
    And why the hell i can swap a kit of player which is even not completly dead?

    It makes it impossible to play Support without defibs, and even reviving Squadmates as a non-support is a gamble since you might end up swapping their loadout. It's insanely frustrating. There NEEDS to be a separate keybind for revive and swap.
