1) When dragging/carrying, if you press the fire button, you raise your weapon and start firing. However, this is VERY inaccurate (You only have one hand on the gun), and you halve your dragging speed (You only have one hand on the body). OR, you can switch to your sidearm, which is pretty much the same, but you have better accuracy in exchange for less damage (Potentially increasing your DPS).

2) Dragging, as a consequence, should speed up the time before the clone dies. If you were to shoot your friend, he'll die faster when you're dragging him than he will if you leave him still and cover the flow of blood. Don't increase the speed by too much. Maybe for every 1 second, it drops 1.5 seconds. Or for every 1 second, it drops 2 seconds. This will decrease the time someone spends dragging your body around without actually helping you because he's a d*ck, and bring a bit of risk/reward into the mechanic.

3) Speed is altered depending on what your melee damage count is. This will give more use to the statistic, and it makes sense (The melee damage module increases arm strength in general, not just melee strength). Therefore, a Commando will be incredibly amazing at dragging and lifting, and a Scout will be less great at it.

4) If your melee is over 150, you carry instead of drag. Doing this increases your speed, but decrease weapon accuracy again, making the weapon almost useless at any range longer than 10m.

Well, you know. YOLO.

And I believe you should automatically pull out your sidearm, not fire your main weapon while dragging someone.

Really like this idea.

Yea, I'm not really for this idea. What is to stop people from abusing it? For example dragging someone out of bounds? If they didn't like that team mate?

Then they don't shoot, unless our guns are made of alloys or ceramics it just wouldn't happen albeit wouldn't even be worth shooting due to accuracy.

The guns we have here are clearly heavy and with the added technology couldn't only mean more weight, if I'm wrong and they are made of lightweight materials then I'd like to hear.

Little-known fact: you can actually move as you're being revived.
As soon as the standing-up animation begins, I'm already headed for cover.

I thought they fixed the powerslide.
