[2019] Suggestion: Backpack quick release

Originally posted by allleoal

So I had the idea while fat-ticking myself towards an extract and getting engaged in a fight to be able to press a button and quickly drop your backpack. Backpacks IRL have a quick release and its common for militaries with patrol packs or ruck sacks to release the bags once a firefight begins to free themselves of the weight.

Why would this be amazing for Tarkov? If you are 90kg you are stuck moving at a snails pace, so if you get caught up in a fight you can quickly and easy drop your backpack to regain mobility to engage in the fight with less of a hindrance - then when the fight is over, move back to your pack and be 90kg again. It could really help players quickly get rid of extra weight on them in an emergency situation to regain necessary speed and mobility, especially if they have heavy armor on. They wont be slow moving ducklings, or atleast less-so.

It will be quicker and easier than needing to open inventory and discarding the bag, which takes you out of the fight for a moment. It can be coupled with a sound effect to give audible feedback the player has released their bag.

What do you guys think?
