All I love is support

In game, what a good feeling it is to hear a teammate say thank you, after you just healed, revived them, repaired their vehicule or resupplied them.
Its one of the best feeling I get when I play PR.
I usually try to play as a medic or engeneer, I usually run around the battlefield (if im not with my squad) trying to give my service to people, making their lifes easier.
I dont do much killing, and when I do, the hostiles are usually pretty close because I need to clear an area fast before reviving everyone.
Dont think I dont like killing, when I can I do, but I will usually focuse my attention on support roles.
Resupplying, healing and repairing are important actions on the battlefield, you can survive without it, but it makes your job WAY easier when you do have support. And you are usually happy when it happens.

So I would like everyone, like me, that like doing their support job, and to the people that say thanks to those that have helped them on the PR battlefields.

On this ending note... Duuuuuddddeeeeee, PR rocks!!!

Well i like to be a teammate too but i prefer to be at the front with my M16 popping Mec Mother Effers in the head on Kashan

Or more likely my L85 on Basrah.

Yea that's amazing isn't it? The thing that struck me though when I first joined PR, was the way everyone forgave TKs. I wonder If Requiem and Eggman realize how unprecedented this care and politeness is in the gaming community? Cheers devs and community!

Yea Dave, sadly thats been happening more this last year and a half. I guess there are more general players now...but it's still no where near as bad as on other mods or games.

hmm i really really love a medic or support when they do their job, not as much incentive in PR as there is in vanilla bf2 but my god its great to have a bunch of ammo when you are holding a position waiting for your squad to reach you or whatever, so to you THANKS

Yeah i love it to. But i like the cover things most. The best feeling you can have is when you know that another squadmember is covering you back while you are doing the same.

Yeh i love support roles too.., my favorite one atm is engineer, nothing like looking back on your armored column whilst your sitting on the .50cal ( or in the support truck bringing up the rear ) knowing that pretty soon all your squadmates will be screaming for you in the next armor confrontation. Then all the roadside repairs after the battle

When you get healed, protect yourself and the medic! I've got shot thousands of times in the head because some marksman/sniper/teammate just looked at my face.. Then they blame me for being a bad medic and killing us both.. Right.

Support is very important.

You can't repel firepower of that magnitude!, without a support truck and engineer in tail, to repair your tank after AT encounters. otherwise, its just a ticking time bomb.
