in most cases a critically wounded soldier is either unconscious or is bleeding at a lethal rate. now, what do field dressings do? they stop the bleeding.
so why can't a field dressing increase the survivability of a severe bleeding wound.
what i'm suggesting is that a field dressing adds more time to the critically wounded timer. this way it's like another soldier slowing the bleeding until a medic arrives.
this is probably not possible due to the fact that a timer is being changed, but i thought it seemed realistic and gives a medic more response time. of course the field dressing has to be applied by a teammate (or maybe an enemy that wants to keep a soldier incapacitated as long as they can
thanks for reading.
