Description:
When Im injured as a medic and attempt to heal myself I lie down on the ground look up and heal however the + symbol dosnt show in the bottom right of the screen (this also includes when standing looking down to heal)

Steps to Reproduce:
Im pretty sure it happens at all times, however im not usually a medic and when i do become a medic its after picking up a kit. So it might only apply to healing after picking up a medic kit.

Tested On:
So far every map mode and server ive played on ive noticed it.

Video Settings (if needed):
Dont think it has to do with video setting however Im on everything high including 16x AA controlled by nvidia control panel.

Its a vBF bug I believe. I used to get this to back when playing normal Battlefield 2.

Uhm but healing in BF2 works WAY different than in PR so it wont appear there in this way.

That is because you can't monitor the situation around you, only the ants on the ground and birds above.

Thats strange cause when i first started playing when id heal myself id get the + but now i dont. oh well if the devs are happy then im happy

Maybe I'm completely off here, but I believe the medical red cross sign, displayed in PR gray in-game are there in the bottom right of the screen, it's just that the intensity of the blood screen when shot is so strong and thick, it just happens to block you from seeing the logo.

Overtime, as a medic, when healing myself up after being shot, I can faintly see the gray cross under the blood screen. I know I'm being healed, because the blood's lightening up and the coughing becomes less.

Maybe it's just not visible under the blood screen. That's what I determined it to be, because healing still works fine, it's just I don't have the gray symbol as a visual cue.

it think i have the same problem

I've had this several times, it occurs after picking up a medic kit. Many of these times I haven't had the blood screen so I know for sure it wasn't working.

Ya i thought it might be that so when i went on last night i choose medic and tried healing and it definitely does not show up anymore, however when i heal a friendly it pops right up, the problem is when I'm trying to heal myself I'm not sure if I'm in the right position and that its actually working until the blood and choking sound/animation have ended its very annoying.

for me, looking down doesn't show the cross but when I'm looking up it does show.

Happens to me if I was just revived or just picked up the kit, other than that works fine.
