I disagree. Knowing the other guy's loadout does not automatically make them or you a better teammate. I don't think the potential benefit outweighs the cost it would take to put it in.

it's more information available for you and your teammates to plan around, removing a lot of guesswork and promoting proper strategy.

i'm not holding my breath that they'll add something like this now, but i imagine the development resources required to do so would have been fairly negligible had it been considered earlier in the game's life.

How does it promote strategy? Are your teammates just going to know all of a sudden? Is it telepathy? Psychic powers?

because you can see what your teammates have and play accordingly? obviously the team has to actually act on that information, but simply making it available to everyone in the first place would certainly help.
