Any equipment on the ground that is better than the equipment you're carrying can be automatically replaced

It would be good for hoppers and barrels, but in my opinion not for guns..

I don't like it.  Sometimes I like to try and pick someone with a poor barrel, and then I pick up an accurate one?  It would just get frustrating.

Why? Then there wouldn't really be a need for anything except 200 hoppers and autocockers.

IMO I like playing with what I get, and maps with guns like VM's and trracers that aren't used as much are more fun.

I think it's a great idea - I mean, maybe not for guns because some of the time i want a trracer over a VM-68, or an autococker over an automag. But who ever wants to have a 100 hopper over a 200 hopper? or a bad barrell over a good barrell?

It could also be able to be switched on and off, depending if you like it that way or not, I think it will be better for some players, the others that dont like it can just go to settings and disable it,

yes it is, i don't like having 4 bind for dropping different equipment,

list of bind that is a waste and can be fixed with this

1- Gun drop
2. Co2 drop
3. Barrel drop
4. Hopper drop

Everytime i want to drop something, i have to take my hand off my mouse which could easy get me killed, It is very annoying

2. Co2 drop

Why'd you want to drop co2?

Go into you config file and put "bind "key" dropgun; dropbarrel; drophopper; dropco2"

When you press the 'key' all of your equipment, except for ammo, will be dropped.

Sooo i've heard that jitspoe or someone is talkin about creating an auto pick up. Which to my understand is that if you start off with for example VM-68 and you walk over say a carbine it automatically picks up the carbine. Now the main problem i see with this would be the difference between the Autococker and the Carbine. Some people rather have a carbine than an autococker and visversa. I don't see this playing out so well. i personally would choose a carbine over a cocker anyday just cause thats what i prefer. Same goes for barrels. the black barrel is clearly the better barrel but idk.. some people might like the steel one beter. hmm..

the steel and black are the same barrel, And the auto pick up should be able to be turned off if you dont like it, or if possible make it customizable to what you like best

I thought this feature was already in the feature vote, but I guess not.

You must have a terrible, terrible control scheme.

I've got dropgun/reloadco2 on the mouse wheel, drop hopper and barrel on the numbers above my movement keys. Your hand should never ever leave your mouse.
