Help your medics...

[{9thInf}GunnyMeyer]

ALSO, if your medic dies trying to save you and you live through the ordeal, PLEASE grab his kit (using the "G" button to pick it up) and revive him as he has done numerous times to you!!!!

Thank you.

That is not the case in my squads. I prefer to keep everyone on a certain kit. The one I have assigned them. When a SL assigns kits, it's for a reason. With me it's because I thought out what kind of opposition we are going to be facing on the map and they amount of mobility I want with my men. If all of a sudden i have 4 medics, a SL and a L-AT, we are up shit creek without a paddle. One squad can do massive damage EX. Kill 2 T90s and 2 APCs all at once. That is not possible with everyone picking up the kits of their "saviours". Sorry guys, that's the risk of the job. Put your life on the line to save another.

However if you are lonewolfing it that is the perfect time to swap kits with the medic that has just died.

After I'm healed, I usually put one on the medic's head. I don't need him anymore..

The only problem with me is voip... I need a mic that works with the bf2 voip, it works for everything else though... So If you could could you link me to a good quality that is like a headset so I can hear and talk to them? Thats why I can never communicate with the medics.

Its not a USB mic is it? I had a 5.1 Surround Headphone/mic combo which was USB. The headaphone worked fine (but can't use XiFI) but the mic was phawkd. I got the IceMat Audio headset now. Its not 5.1, but it has a decent audio quality, good base and very comfortable. (cloth/padded earmuffs). Its mic that comes with it is amazing. Blocks out the perfect amount of white noise, but picks up voices very clearly. I can record guitar on it no problem w/o the hiss of background sounds and people hear me over VOIP even though I velcroed it on the bottom of the monitor. (sounds reflect into it better from the desk).

I have a USB head set, but it didn't work in game until i plugged my old mic in at the same time.

I must mention one very important thing, when you see a medic on work please provide cover for him (smoke, nades, fire power), especially when he have more than one soldier to revive/heal. There is quite a big possibility that there are still enemies in the vicinity, and medic just can't do everything at once.
Also, one good tip, when you are medic, stick to your squad leader and never rush first in fight, it would be better, for medic and squad, if you stay on the squad tail (last man) and to be a 6 o'clock watcher for your squad.

Sometimes, when I get revived, I try to lead the medic to a safe place, but then he runs away or doesn't follow =\. Other times, when I have a certain kit, I would see the medic staring at me until my body disappears then he/she takes my kit! >.<

One thing I hate more than anything though.
You get shot.
Go down.
Yell: "Medic! Medic!"
A medic runs over.
Steals your sniper/marksman/support kit.
Runs off.
You die.

Yes, in urban battles it's always useful to have a medic keep 6. He can just chill until the situation is resolved, and then go deal with all the casualties. Of course sometimes your whole squad minus medic gets overrun, but there's not much you (as medic) can do about that. If you run out when there's still enemies you'll be shot. Of course, you can hide and wait for the enemies to move on before hitting their flank.
