The title says it all. Where is it, everyone seems to have forgotten about it…

They have officially cancelled it.

Guess you have been living under a tree since you have missed all the cost cutting, game mode removal and last-ditch cash grabbing in what now seems a doomed project.

I was just saying last night that they should put the Firestorm ability to move yourself when downed into the base game. Would be even better than the dragging.

I’d rather not have dead bodies moving more than they already are.

It’s for the best that they canned the idea. It sounds good on paper, but when you think about it, it wouldn’t work in practice. You’d just get shot while dragging.

DICE might as well get rid of medics in BFV. i mean they gimped the entire class into a state where you might as well stop bothering as a medic player.

Because it would have been a no control anime. A lot longer then getting out of a tank anime

I would like this as long as you could kill downed players too.

It’s currently a grey smush of pixels tactically hiding under a bush, not moving by a grey rock face.

Downed players being able to crawl would be a lot better, it works well in PUBG. Running into fire to drag a teammate would be just as suicidal as trying to revive him. I also find it hilarious that anyone considers the absence of the dragging feature to be a big deal. This game has much more serious problems, and until they fix the network performance and get an effective anti-cheat and deliver rented servers and add content at a faster rate then I wouldn’t waste a second brooding over not being able to drag downed teammates. People find the oddest things to get cranky about.
