Amen. The number of times I've gotten kills in that bloody grass using iron's, they're worth their weight in gold

hey loving the new spawn menu selections however one issue:
If theres one medic per squad, then if someone selects medic and leaves the squad what happens, squads are gona be left with no medics arent they? and someones ran off with that squads medic kit, unless theres a plan to credit the squad a medic kit back once their medic leaves?

We shall have to rely on the maturity of the PR community.

One issue I can see is that squads in matches and the like may be reduced to 4, maybe even 3 people, so they're simply:

Officer
LMG
Medic
Rifleman (maybe)

I think the LMG should only be available to squads with at least 5 people in.
Otherwise there may just be mad spraying on every map with the LMGs just killing everyone.

Also I usually like the have 2 medics in case one goes down, it DOES make it more realistic. As for the LMG....I just jizzed my pants. Great job, but I too am worried about it not being used for suppresion etc. and more as a killing machine. Look at Operation Archer for example. An LMG gunner could rule the whole city from the castle if he has a spotter, and with the crazy deployed accuracy he'll be able to take guys out as far as he can see.

I think it's pretty realistic thought

tbh, tactically 2 Medics is a waste, one decent medic shouldn't go down, medics do not fight, they hide

So i think 1 medic per squad is gurd.

Also, LMGs should be limited because IRL they are expensive so most armies can't afford many

I think this has been mentioned several times before: How much medics are assigned to a squad in real life? (Before you answer: This is a rethorical question!) And if your medic gets hit IRL you ARE screwed. That's the way it goes.

A little tip: Tell your medic to stay OUT of danger and IN cover. Should help to keep him alive.

if i see someone try to steal the medic kit in my squad he will get hit by about 200 bullets into his back. if i get random guys in my squad stealing (or taking the kit when i've had someone else playing a good medic the entire round who is waiting to respawn), i will deal with it one way or the other. most people act in a mature manner and do what the SL wants...the others will be shot.

As optimistic as some of us are im just not confident in the PR community noobs to abuse this , the majority of players in PR are willing to work as a team however i just see them getting impatient and fighting the battle and then the squad bleeds to death while the medics imaptience has cost the squad their ability to operate. PR will have to rely much more on SL discretion and admins i guess
