For the love of all that is good and holy, PLEASE PLEASE hurry with the next patch!!!!! As a continuation of my mega-bitch post earlier, another complaint for the day was that about 60-70% of the US team was Spec Ops.. LoL... I couldn't bitch about bad medics most of the time because THERE WASN"T ANY!!!!

Winter quarter just started today So I guess any date from here on out is good lol. The later the better so I don't get bothered by playing PRM instead of studying.

No bitching about the medics hey?

I say, keep it as it is then! Every and all noobs, attention! Go medic - they wont bitch at ya! They will be so surprised that your there you'll be forgiven anything!

Yeah, and if you're not a medic, and you see a dead medic, FOR THE LOVE OF GOD PICK UP HIS KIT AND REVIVE HIM, THEN BE A GOOD LITTLE BOY AND PLAY MEDIC FOR A FEW. Sheesh.

I couldn't count the times tonight that I was killed in the middle of 4-6 other teammates, and none of them would drop their kit to revive me. I always try to get the medic back up, or switch kits. It's just good manners.


edit: I"m a whiney son-of-a-gun tonight ain't I... :P


edit part Deux: DEVs, Please take my whining with a grain of salt. I -really- like this game... I"ve been playing since one of the first versions (off and on) and really playing a TON of .4... It's a great game, and I really haven't had any bitches about it until tonight, but mainly I"m just in a pissy moood. >

No pun intended, don't mean to insult, but you know? Sometimes us medics are a weee bit busy to spesifically save your butt.

Here are some of my whiney reasons.
1) You are cut of from your squad. Medic isn't - medic is trying to save his/her SL that just got killed.
2) Medic is desperatly trying to seek cover since - NO BODY ARMOUR!
3) Medic tries to asses the situation and figure out, is it safe to revive? Or will we both get killed in the process - resulting in a long bitchfest "ingame" and then on this very forum
4) Medic is desperatly trying to keep up with the MEC Marathon that just started in his/her squad and getting chewed up by SL for "not moving your fat arse fast enough".
5) One squadmate has been shot and the medic is desperatly trying to " find" that spesific squadmate.
6) The medic is also the SL and has the responsibility of keeping himself/herself safe so that 5 other players can continue assault.
7) Deep in enemy territory, just a few feet away from a whole squad of tangoes you lay prone in the grass hoping that they won't see you. Now is not the time to run up to the medic and yell "MEDIC MEDIC MEDIC! THANKS THANKS THANKS!".

The list could go on. What people forget at times is that medics have a role in this game, and basically it would be to keep his/her squad safe first. If I read the game wrong and use 3 zapps to save a lonewolf smuck (I would have no idea if it was or not, because of no nametag) and seconds later my SL or another squadmate gets shot - I have just wasted over half of my "ammunition". Now because of me trying to be the hero, my SL is killed and I cannot ressurect (worst case scenario). Who do you think will get the "WTF was that? That was GAY! You call yourself a medic?" on VOIP? You? Or me?



I do understand your frustration. Really, I do. I just try to keep this in the back of my head when I see a medic running like crazy straight past my body.

I don't think that's being insulting Clav, I think you have very well described what can be going on for those of us that play medic 90 - 100% of our gaming time. I played with Non-Compliance last night and it was a pleasure. Our job as medics is first "our safety" or we can't help anyone (same as in real life situations). I do try very hard to keep all my guys up and going, but sometimes, despite their yells for a medic, I can't safely get to them, clear 3 enemies on the roofs, and revive my pile of bud's bodies. As much as I wish I were that good, I am not. Expecting medics to "revive everyone everytime" would be like medics expecting the rest of the kits to "kill every enemy everytime". It's a tough job being a medic, but someone has to do it!

I understand the frustration too. Some games go smoothly, like clock work, and others you just can't seem to make anything happen. I guess the "bad games" is what makes the "good ones" so GREAT! Salute and let's all hug

The most frustrating one was when a medic was proned over me, didn't even try to revive then just walked away
