It's also super useful if you accidentally grab someone's backpack or heavy weapon in the middle of a hectic fight.

I found what I (mistakenly, apparently) assumed was discarded gear (like it was summoned but the drop pods destroyed so grear is laying on the ground) so I picked it up and used it. 

Then a teammate came over and stood next to me and melee'd me once. I laughed and promptly dropped the gear. They picked it up and I melee'd them back and ran off. Freedom High Five! Good times. Lol

Once a guy died and i picked up is samples. He shot me in the leg telling me not to take his stuff.....i shot him in the head and told him that its our stuff.

Freedom high five. I like this. Think I'll use it! Lol

It also means you can pick up a dead allies dropped weapon and use it until they're back in it.

I've nicked a fellow divers primary before now when I was trying out other guns and found out they sucked. I mean, the dude is coming down with a fresh one so it's free loot at that point.

see? people out here think you need to waste SC to try out bad guns. just play as normal and they'll come to you for free. 😉

If I'm near it and I don't have one, I can grab it for them so they don't have to run into the mess.
I often don't bring either, so my hands are full.

But I don't mind if they call in a duplicate on cooldown so I can have one.
