What's the use for it? You can do it with diving equipment.

It would be good for [insert island/map name here] life missions.

WTF?

I saw the title and thought there was no way you were talking about a snorkel.

I started this ticket, because mask and snorkel can be equipped to head gear and used to swimming at water line without heavy scuba gear. Regular soldier will be able to moving cover with water, but gear for it can be stored to backpack.

Just use a diving google. Holding breath under water is still very long..

Won't this backpack be sticking out of the water? Are we going to have a optional 'shark fin' that we can attach to the backpack to confuse the enemy?

Besides that, how far is this regular soldier supposed to swim with all his regular gear?

And then there's getting all his other equipment and clothing soaking wet...

I could go on but I'll wait for a rebuttal on these points.

We definitely need a shark fin. It would be really cool in PvP games. :D

Backpack was for example. Mask and snorkel can be stored to inventory.
