BF2S Forums Dumbass medics

i dont have a prob with that becaase id rather he revive me ten times and take a chance that we will both survive than risk getting killed straight up and no one being alive, because when you think about it if he revives you a couple of times and it doesnt pay off its still only one death to your tally. the only time i hate being revived is when i wana swap kits!

Before you go to rush and revive someone, survey the situation, if you come under fire while going to the downed team mates body, either retreat or clear out the resistance before you revive the person. You may end up getting killed trying to revive him, then instead of one ticket loss, you now will lose two for your team. Or you may revive the guy, but then if you are under fire, he'll end up getting killed again, and will have to wait another 15 seconds till he can spawn. Don't revive just to get the point. If the guy you just revived does get killed again, DON'T REVIVE HIM AGAIN. Clear out the resistance first! Then revive him again. Nothing is more annoying than having a medic that will revive you again and again after being killed immediately after being revived.

Yeah, obviously some medics haven't read this section from the UBAR part of this website.  Not to mention they don't even have the common sense of a peanut. 


Oh, BTW, where is Ernie?  Ya smacktard!  lol

You people that complain when medics revive people in a firefight make me sick. Its either bitching about not reviving, or bitching about being revived in a firefight! Calm down man, its not like it decreases your Kill Death Ratio or counts as a death. You should be happy that there is infact a medic there doing his bloody job.

What pisses me off to no end is when I encounter a group of enemies, get shot, and a med revives me.  But he dosen't clear the area of enemies.

You have to take the good with bad. They're trying to help you, as well as stay alive themselves. Put yourself into their shoes, if I was a medic with the damn L8 I would make sure as many people around me were still alive in order to stay alive. They're only trying to help.

The medics that get me are the ones that don't pay attention when you beg them for health (that goes for support players and ammo too).

A smart medic will try to clear out the area long enough to revive the the dead guy and both get the hell out.

The problem with medics constantly revivng you is that if you just die you can get back in battle instead of helping the other team pad their stats.

It seems to me, nowadays, that most medics forget they have paddles.

I find myself thinking "I hate our medics..."

I like being medic around snipers, on Wake Island there are many snipers and sometimes there are many snipers  laying next to another. So they shoot the enemey snipers and when they get shot, I revive them. Never ever did a sniper complain about this, couse I know, when he gets back to life and the enemy is still there, he can take another shot at the enemy sniper and maybe get him killed. Of course it's kinda hard, if the enemy is just waiting for me to get my teammate revived, but I have fun with this kinda tense situation.

Another thing I do very often is, when there are more enemies than teammates around, I try to revive everyone ASAP, couse as long as the enemy has something to shoot at, they don't shoot me And sometimes, if there is no enemy medic doing the same, it even works, so that my teammates get the upper hand of the situation and manage to take 'em all out.

Still you have to remember, that when you are revived, every kill you do still counts towards the "kill streak" stat. Look at my stats, I have a kill streak of 32, and I am the worst pilot you can imagine, the only thing I hit as a pilot, are friendlies. So this means these 32 only comes from "on-foot" battles. I'm pretty sure I died a couple of times during these 32, but got revived enough times to get it.

i know what you mean dude iam also a medic freak just because the points i get i love too revive,heal people but some are dumb they revive you then you die revive and so on but the medic get's the points!

Well in a tense firefight and someone revives you; the whole idea the medic has is to revive and HOPE you run the other way to regroup. The idea is not to revive to see you die again and again, maybe for stats but I don't think shock paddles against a tank is gonna win because all I see is that medics always have those paddles out. I thank them constantly, and the ones that change kits just to revive, I either go on thier Squad or follow them.

Yeah, I've ran up on a few tanks to blow them up and pulled out my health pack. They don't work as well as C4. [I usually play spec-op and I forget I have the medic kit]

Of course if your squad leader goes down, every effort should be made to revive him, even if you die.  After all if you can revive him and you die, you can always spawn on him instead of having the whole squad die and then have to trek back to where you were.  Also, if I'm in a sticky situation, I'll try to revive anyone around me because I know I'm fucked on my own.

That'd be awesome, Bubkin!!!

depends on the ammount of enemies surrounding, if theres only 2-3 ill take the chance of killing them first, if i dont stand a chance ill be diving on the person to revive em and help me out, too bad if they get killed again
