Chief_Wigum · 02-10-2002, 03:36 AM

i still wana know why not now

umm who needs medics just kill somebody and take their magical realistic health kits.

Yea, other players act as medics. Its a reward system. If your good and you kill people then you get to pick up their health if you suck and just get shot up. They its pretty cheap just to got get more health from a medic.

Chief_Wigum · 02-10-2002, 03:46 AM

it would be alot more fun with medics you idiot
think would you
oh yah StrikOr you better not come in my forums

02-10-2002, 03:47 AM

yeah its sorta like how you can snipe someone in the hand and kill them

handshots should be banned, they're tooo lethal

Chief_Wigum · 02-10-2002, 03:51 AM

what does that have to do with medics

Captain Bunny · 02-10-2002, 03:56 AM

i havent played MP yet, but if you a kill a guy, does a medipack appear for just the killer, or can any player collect it? that would suck if you shot a guy but were pinned down with little health, then some other comes alone and steals that medipack.
i love being the medic on land warrior. grea fun!.
and brings in a sort of moral side to warfare

Hey Chief ... the answer is rather obvious, isn't it?

There are no medics for the same reason there are no, say, field generals or engineers. The developers did not opt to include them. I don't see how you can expect to get a more detailed "why" than that.

Besides, multi-player is weapon-based, not weapon-based. A medic would be a class; the entire multi-play system 2015 put in place would have had to be scrapped in order to facilitate your medic. It *could* have been done, of course, but then you'd be waiting until June to get your game.

medics would add a new dimension to the game. Plus it would make the game more realistic. I say do away with the packs or make them give you less health. This game will be missing out without medics IMO.

Wolfenstein has medics that have magicaly regenerating health packs.
I acctually perfer the reward system of getting health from a dead opponent.
Just pretend you stole the guy's bandages or something to make it seem realistic.

i cant come to your forums im so sad. medics might be useful in maybe they can hand out those +25 health kits and have a limited number of them, say 10, but limit their ammo to maybe 1 or 2 extra clips with a SMG as so to give them the ability to defend themselves, but not have everyone being a regular soldier with medkits.

try bringing a clean head shot back to life medic boy. if you want to play doctor get that game where you get the tweezers and try not to get shocked takeing a wrench out of that boys stomach. (what was that game called operation or some crap.) bottom line kill someone and rape them of their medic pack like a man.
