IRL almost all soldiers have 1=one field dressing... they carry enough gear already and don't usually stock up on field dressings...

Why can't we just get an animation of the medic slapping the wounded guy in the face, and have a sound yelling "Snap out of it"..

Too be honest this mod really isn't that realistic, if you want a really realistic portrayal of war join the army.

People respawn, vehicles respawn, Tanks can be repaired by one guy with a wrench in 20 seconds; the fact is that everything in this mod is a representation of reality, take the kit limiting system for instance, saying this was unrealistic because in real life kits don't drop out of the sky would be retarded, and no-one would listen to you, what you are saying is pointless because the shock paddles represent real medical activities, rather than recreating them.

I can already see one for the British.

"Medic!"
Medic runs over and dives on the body.
"Clear!"
"Medic!"
"Clear!" (instead of "hold on, recharging") "Shut up, mate, you aren't dead yet!"

Try, try again until the guy is back on his stomach.

Anyway, I always seem to kick the bucket when I'm hit with a .50.

I know, someone once suggested, that the Medic should grab the dead guy and yell 'wake up!!!11'. Made me LOL for days.

on ure point about field dressings........all soldiers carry em anyway.

Post by **Deadfast** » 2007-12-31 02:22

Goddamn, please, leave the field dressings alone.

I have enough of this horror as insurgent. One bullet and you go coughing all around Al Basrah to find a damn civvie.

I don't wanna be chasing medics all over the damn map just because I felt down form a 'minihill'.

how'bout adding a system to the medic bag, treating critical injured (you know the count down to your real death)

so treat critical injured soldiers lying around the BF, you should have a chance that the soldier will be saved (revived.) or not (immediate death)

or a extended version of that idea, treat them when they are critical injured, then when the point of the defri, then they are revived and require further medical services... Medical tent would be nice somehow...

the above system would kinda take away the "godness" away from medics being able to revive anyone who have been shot anywhere except the head.

"Soldier: aaaw **** I'm shot in the heart lying here completly Critical injured, Its over i am dead!......
Medic: lol ffs!! just a heart dude, just gonna shock you with my defri and you will lie on your stomach before you even know it! oh yeah here take some bandages for that heart mate!...."

..... could be improved

Approved or not, your death will still be my gain ;D

Ah man, why do you wanna make it so complicated. ATM we are limited to 32 players per team. That means you won't enjoy action game if you will have half of team running around map searching for field hospitals.

no no no no no no no no no no no no no, field hospital was just a very very secoundary comment. nothing to do with the idea

I think that the medic is good as it is. Don't change it

Post by **Rudd** » 2007-12-31 12:03

Field hospital simple aint gonna happen,

However a vehicle (like a saxon with ambulance markings) that can only be driven by medics could work.

These ambulances would only be driven by medics, but any1 could get in to get healed.

How about instead the Medics have a weapon called "Treat Injury" or "Help Up" or simply "Treat" and all it shows is the medics hands grabbing and treating and it would have the same effect as the defrbs but be more believable and less arcade. Do you understand what i mean maybe i worded that stupidly?

don't you think its silly taht you aim your weapon with your mosue instead of of your hands?
Real life is realife.
Eventho this game is aiming for reality, here is a limit, between game and reality.
If the game was too realistic then it will lose the idea of a game, that is fun.
now imagine you were in a crucial point of a map, you got shot by a random fire and jsut one field dressing is enough for you to heal, but you don't ahve it.
So you bleed to death coz yo uare alone there with no medic.
would you like that?

That's their problem.

This idea is just ridiculous. Shall it be over now?
