Can't pick up "Power weapons"

I am on PS4 and find it impossible to pick up the " Power Weapons" that located in the Multi Player Maps. such as the High powered Sniper Rifles ect.....

After I press hold to pick up the weapon it immediatley throws it back on the ground. I know alot of other people are haiving the same issue. when will something be done to improve this issue?

    i find it better to continue holding the button, use the weapon until its empty then release it to throw it away. maybe there will be a fix...

    This has been an ongoing problem since the release.  Some of the base maps have been improved (Power Weapons don't drop as often) the problem persists.  In the DLC maps, the Power Weapons are even worse; sometimes they are downright impossible to hold on to.

    What's interesting is that the difficulty in picking them up varies even on the same map from round to round.  Sometimes you need to hold the Triangle Button for a very long time, other times you just need to hold if for a fraction of a second, and everything in between.

    Please advise, what is being done to fix this.  When will this be fixed?

    I've posed several other issues today as well; issues that have been going on for weeks.  I'm sure you remember EA's broken promise to fix BF4 before moving on the the DLC and Hardline.   So please pardon me if I want hard and fast info.

    Any and all help is appreciated!

    Hi all,

    This is day 2 without any help.  Will someone from EA please help find a solution for this problem?

    Cheers!

  • I've had this issue since day one. It has never gotten better, even with Dice promising to re-direct focus from DLC and Hardline to fix broken **bleep**. What has it been, like 8 months?

    I find if i have my secondary weapon deployed it works better. but that is far from a solution.
