Why not create a Doctor Class that can heal other players with more than one meddkit and besides put a box to refill your own meddkits, it would be fun to save your mates. The question of the gun use pistols and a knife.
Use backpacks, carry up to 4 medkits and ask squad to heal you, we don’t really need a medic, we are not reviving anyone. Imho
it has been suggested way back in the alpha, and has been throwed “in the trash” due to lack of fondamentals.
because, there are many factors to consider, and the historical, would one to begin with.
you can look up for your self of what has been discussed, point is, in enlisted, there’s not really a place for them.
outside of cosmetic, but even there, it might become questionable.

And this is where it should stay.
Medics are forbidden to carry weapons or participate in combat. Also it is forbidden to be shot at. Imagine anyone wanting to play such class in the game 
not so much fun.
well, i did some research, and apparently, comabat medics were a thing.
not necessarely, according to the geneva convetion that germany and americans had, any units carrying weapons holding in their arm are considerable combat units and therefore shoot on sight.
while on the soviet side, well, no one actually care if they had weapons or not.
while for enlisted, there’s not really a place for them outside of cosmetics. because you can actually make medics on your own past level 16 as you get larger bags.
but even than, as said before on cosmetic, you might just draw attention and get shot because he is more " shiny " than the others.
so perhaps just an arm band? that you can still see it, but it’s a detail that requires you to focus on when in reality you just see the soldiers. but usefull in close quarter for the players to recognize his own medic.
i don’t know, should be further discussed or further ignored.
They are allowed to carry small arms but they are never allowed to use them in offensive way which is something players would do without hesitation, also enemy players will have zero morals to actually not attack them, thus making this game another copy paste arcade and making it to receive criticism.
This should definitely not be even considered.
wrong.
when during offencive or under fire, as they are combat medics, they can put aside the job, and fight as a trooper.
welp, what can i say…
i guess they already critiqued this game for his non historical choises already so…
don’t get me wrong, i’m neutral for this regard. but considering that somethings are a thing, and some others, aren’t. don’t know what to think.

Yeah, its better to turn it into a mix of arcade concepts + milsim gameplay, that sure will make it better! /s
A lot of people are trying to make enlisted into some kind of realistic game when its almost as arcade as battlefield.
Also, if we follow the line of thing being deleted because they weren’t like this irl, lets delete the AT guys since i’v seen a lot of people shooting soldiers with their PIATs. Lets delete the snipers too, since most players use them as normal riflemen
I think the medic idea is bad, but its not bad because it cant simulate 1:1 their real life activities, but because they have no place in the game.
