Let’s say you die there and there a dude chilling with an mmg up there. Sure, I could risk it and use a smoke nade to cover me, but if I can’t I’m sorry but that ones on u.

One of the big things that helped me to change my experience with the system is to go into the menu and switch the behaviour of 'Press to Skip/Hold On' to 'Toggle to Skip/Hold On'.

As soon as I die, I can tap Hold on and check messages on my phone/take a drink of water and 9 times out 10, I actually do get a clutch revive. If I've been on some daft flank out to the middle of nowhere is pretty much the only time I skip.

Either way, Toggle is a lot kinder on the fingers!
