Even if we DID make a black hawk with no weapons, filled it with medics, and slapped a big red cross on the front, it would STILL be shot down instantly. People would target said vehicle mainly because it would be easy to kill, and it preforms a valuable service on the battlefield. The geneva convention dosn't work in games, because people don't have morals and ethics or even mercy online. all that matters to them are the kills, the points and the first place.

Believe me, I would LOVE to fly a medic chopper, but it would be the absolutly worst possible place to be in a BF game. You might was well paint the chopper floursent pink and write "SHOOT ME DOWN PLEASE!" on the front, and if that dosn't get the enemies attention, you could always mount two huge stereo speakers on the sides and play Team Americas main theme.

And no way could a punishment scheme be put in to stop people doing this because from the side or at a distance it might look the same. Dont forget medics in Bf2 arnt all innocent, they carry guns for a reason also.
