Medic Class

So why isn’t there a medic class with its primary being taken up by an unlimited use medic bag? I think It can be fun running around bring back allies to their feet. Though they should come equipped with pistols as a default, so they can at least bring some firepower to fight until they get upgraded to have that secondary slot.

Let’s not make this into BF5.

Reviving people that get shot in the skull really doesn’t belong here.

I think they should have something better than a pistol. Maybe something like the m1 carbine? Or even a pistol carbine, like the c96 mauser with it’s stock on. Since pistols don’t have super zoom which is pretty much a must.

You could do it like how Hell Let Loose does it. If headshoted you can’t revive him

No thanks - the current system works fine and this game needs to develop it’s own systems, not copy ideas that every other game has.

Medics really just dont belong in this game. Its fast paced and medics aren’t useful in that playstyle. It’d just be -1 maybe useful player per each medic squad on your team. And I say maybe useful player because the average player in this game is trash at it.

Or not do it at all.

You can’t be revived after several SMG bullets in the chest.

You won’t survive a bolt action in the chest either, assuming you get treatment within 5 seconds of being shot, and assuming it misses everything vital, you may survive, but still no.

This idea is bad overall. It has no place here.

I do t think there is sufficient work for a medic. People die really fast in enlisted and a deviated medic would make for one less squad capping or killing the enemy. You can equip soldiers with more than one medpack so can kinda have a medic now

We already have downed soldiers that can be “revived”. Only things I would change is downed animation / position and to add option to drag downed soldier to safer place where he can be healed. (Tbh person that is dragging isn’t likely to survive this.)

large backpack with med kits on a soldier with 200% HP bonus on healing and faster healing…voila, you made yourself a medic.

Woah, then everyone in my squad must have a medical degree.

Definitely not unlimited, but I agree a dedicated medic class could be a nice addition.

It was discussed few times already and each time answer was “No”.

And that answer will remain the same even now…

No.

Okay lets stay positive and think a moment about such a class and what it could be like.

Features I could think that would be possible are:

  • A chest of medpacks. Like am ammo box. You can get there and fetch first aid boxes if you have empty slots.
  • A medic tent. You can go there to regain health fast.

Both items can be destroyed. A medic tent is an easy target from the air, WHICH OF COURSE NOBODY WOULD ATTACK!!! cough

A medic troop should not consist on medics only so the troop still has some firepower.

Other abilities I could think of are the ability to use medpacks on others (which are not dead yet). Therefore a medic should see health bars of others.

Just some ideas from my side.

That’s literally one of the good parts of bf5, and it’s definitely not one that defines it.

They should also remove shooting from guns since Call of duty already did that.
Also War thunder already did tanks so i think they should remove that too.

Bruh medics were a crucial part of ww2 and this is a ww2 simulator what do you mean copy other things? Copy ww2? A ww2 game shouldn’t copy ww2?

Bf5 is one of the most fast paced games I’ve played and medics work just fine, not to mention Enlisted already suffers from a lot of slow paced problems that if anything medics would solve. I sit on my ass for 8 seconds just to patch up a shoulder scratch and then have to wait for one of my 8 dumb AIs to come with a med pack and do the same. Medics that could heal up % of wounded soldiers and had a limited amount of revives for downed soldiers would help a lot.

Too bad you can already do that in the game with medpack.

There is about 500 places where a bullet can go irl and you will live through it. And in Enlisted thanks to medpacks this number of places is infinite. Yeah a guy that can patch up a wound and replenish a wounded soldiers hp for a few % would absolutely break my immersion. Thank god nothing like a medic existed in the history ever.

Yeah, too bad he can’t heal up anyone outside your squad, which is kinda the whole point of a medic class.

yeah that explains a lot, thanks for sharing your interesting point of view, we learnt a lot from it.
