Will the Insurgents ever get a real Medic kit?

DavidP · Post by **DavidP** » 2008-01-29 05:33

Can someone please tell me why there is no dedicated Medic Kit for Insurgents? In .5 we had a medic bag and that was enough, I didn't care for the Ak47 or Molotovs. I just want the Med bag back. I hate running out of field dressings as civi, And when i do my teammates get pissed that i was "Irresponsible with my Field dressings" When i was just trying to keep my them and my squadmates alive.

Can the dev's please tell me why? I dont mean to be an *** but i'm tired of having to deal with this shit.

EDIT: 3 reasons why Insurgents should get a Med bag.

1. As civi it's real easy to run out o field dressings.

2. Med bag = More teamwork. Right now if someone gets a medic kit everyone crowds around them trying to keep them alive.

3. More incentive for people to go support roles instead of Kill, ,Die, Respawn, Repeat.

instead of giving medic bags to insurgents, since the general idea of the insurgent faction is that they are "expendable", I'd lower their spawn time. wait a min, lowering spawn time in PR!? let the flaming begin!

I guess insurgents are civilian, so they usualy dont have food, water, electricity, and med pack xD

Would it be so bad for one guy to have nothing other then a med bag and rocks? In .5 i rarely used my AK47 or Molotovs when medic. Hell my teammates were more glad to be alive and kicking *** with their Svd's, Rpg's, and Pkm's then with me fighting along side them.

I really miss the med bag for insurgents. It was my favorite kit on .5 basrah to use when requested by SL(Other then RPG) Back then more people would volunteer for medic then they do now for civi.

Give us a percentage on how many real-life insurgents have been to learn medicine at an established medical school and been put through rigorous training like any medic in any conventional army...

how come ALL the civies are car mechanics? I'd thought at least one of them would be a doctor there fore it would be realstic to have a civie medic

Better then a spawn kit and a middle east town full of medics.

Maybe borrow medic kit from the Brits

It doesn't matter anyway, you can't revive insurgents.

no way, get a civi to follow you round and youve got enough med packs as it is!

add to the fact Brits cant shoot your "medic/spotter/general piss-taker"

Umm, can't you repair your car at home or do you drive it to the mechanics every time the light bulb dies out?

yea but light bulb dyeing out is different from a engine block thats been shot up.

i get the OP's point, but would people have the appropriate expertise to help with combat wounds ?

Amateurs to say the best, which explains why some IEDs blow up right in their face as they are making em.

Yeah, that would bother me too.

I agree with those who stated that insurgents do not have the kind of medical training or supplies to be realistically given a med bag.
