Were we not supposed to be gathering these in between kills and while going on missions? They're still there during those times.

You can, but it's not exactly fluid, since you don't accumulate a large amount of materials if you're not spending a ton of time zigzagging across huge areas of map. And if you're playing coop, it's quite possible that your party members will be frustrated by your choice to go pick flowers for 15 minutes in the middle of some otherwise exciting mission.
