Automatic Medic Healing

I feel like no one uses medic squads because no one pays attention that there is a medic in front of them and that most of the time the players using the medic squad use it just as another assaulter squad.

So my suggestion is that when a medic box is dropped, AI grab medkits when they pass by.
Also that when Medics are ordered to stay in a certain spot, they use their medic bags on passing squads. That way medics have more use and versatility. And so team players are more motivated to keep their squad alive to help the team rather than bomb rush and cycle squads again.

AI medics do automatically heal those around them

I have, and have had em to it to me

Well is there something else that could make medics more useful?

They’re Assaulters with a gimmick. What more do you want?

They already heal the people around, but something interesting could be that you could order them to heal the soldiers in a certain area

The bit with AI picking up medkits would be amazing.

Medics are the most useless squad by far.
Main reason is simple; there arent any consequences when you die.

They are doing it, but very bad.

it would be cool if you could revive fallen soldier if their squad is still alive. That would be actually useful.

No.

Medics are fundamentally terrible.

You’re healing lives in a game that treats soldiers like peanuts.

People wipe and get wiped all the time, and anyone can run a medkit build where they can self-heal 6-9HP per use with up to 4 medkits in their inventory.

Why i think making meidc more useful is so important

Medic* lol

Medics aren’t useful.

The game fundamentally makes them a joke.

Enlisted isn’t a milsim, nor does it play like one, where medics do occupy an important niche.

Any supposed rework for medics necessitate an entire rework of the kill/down mechanics that are frankly too complex for the devs to implement in a meaningful way.

Medics are really fun to play, it’s a good idea to boost them a bit.

A tip: the medic in your squad can be called by the rose wheel to heal you when you fight. It’s very useful, especially on defense.

No, the American soldier I ripped in half using my MG 42 can’t just be stopped with a syringe of meth and get back up.

there might be some exceptions

good idea. medics are overall weak and have extremely strong competing alternatives (eg Assaulter 4). making healing automated will increase their usefulness and fun to use (passively getting healing assists while you run around doing other things similar to getting engineer assists over the course of the game).
