did a search couldnt find anything exactly about this topic..
when a soldier is down now ingame all we hear is the "medic" line.. sounding rather unaffected.. I think it would be more realistic and an adding stressfactor if the lines "medic" or "i need a medic over here" were shouted, not just said as a comment

Unless you get shot in the lung, then you can't yell, lol.

that would be if you got shot in both lungs but still

If you were shot in both lungs you'd be terribly unlucky and it would probably be the end of your days.

How would the game differentiate? All it knows is you are down.
Maybe if you could change the colors of the red cross symbol on the medics minimap that would be something. Or add another symbol to those wounded soldiers requesting a medic from those downed soldiers who need to be revived.
This is all assuming nothing has changed for the medics in 0.6 and that it's not all hardcoded.

Nevermind. You just want the voice changed, huh? Even then it wouldn't help a medic that much would it? This is sound for effect. This is not for gameplay enhancement.

there has been a thread on adding new voices which sound better (frantic medic calls).
I say just take the one from BoB when they get hit by the arty in that snowy forest.

yeah a new sound would be nice. Right now it's more like "hey, I could probably use a medic here so if you guys have time and are not too far maybe you could come and help me?"
Whereas it should be more like "I need a f***ing medic here, NOW!

or maybe make the need madic request be shouted by a fellow squad member so that if you want to get revived you have to work as team and have a squad mate near you ?

Ye man, I do this every now and then. When a fellow soldier is down, I stand next to him and shout my lungs out for a medic. Usually, a medic steps up and revives the person, patching him up, etc.
But yeah, more voices/shouts/commands to make clear one of your buddies needs help would be nice. Makes the overall more realistic.
But same goes for receiving fire, shouts like "we have contact!", "we're pinned down!" or "take cover!" are things I would like to see added in the future.
Way more voice commands makes the game more realistic. Those commands are not like "go here" or whatever, just adds to the realism.

I find the same thing as afterdune. as my squad as SL or as member is always on VOIP, i just shout for my squads medic to come and help a dying member of another squad if i find one, and i am not currently assaulting through an enemy objective at the time.

Airsoft is so much fun when you need a medic
"MEEEEEEEEEEEEEDIIIIIIIIIIIIIC!!!!!"
the trick is to make blood curdle
medic screams need to be more desperate for CW soldiers and about as they are now for commo rose medic calls

soldiers voices need to be like vanilla ,they are more "clear" than the pr voices .
