I agree, 100%. Whenever I find the wingsuit, I will find myself debating what weapons to drop (I run with a hard offense - full bore ahead). If we are near the end of the roung and not much zone left, I am dropping long range weapons like the sniper rifle.

It is definitely an item I hope they keep around. It helps negate people using vehicles (like I do), negates the zone swings (like you said) and generally is fun to use (reaching hard to find high spots is easier).
