[poll] Poll: # of Medics per match after achievements are out

[CharlesPNorris]

Medic Achievements= Nobody dies in TF2 anymore

 

[theblahman]

Hmmm.... I'd say that the first few days everyone will go Medic, but once people realize that they will be quite hard to get (well some of them do) they'll give up and go back to playing their old class. I'll say 12 on the poll.

4, people who hate medic will still hate medic. However, a few more people will play.

 

[Guardian-X]

I'm wagering 5 if it's people that know what they're doing. 5 medics healing 5 offense players, 2 spies 2 snipers 2 engineers. That should round out a balanced team. By the way, does anyone know if the achievements will count things that you have already done? I'd hate to lose my 2.7 million healing points.

I'm going to agree, once a medic always a medic. Those that hate medic aren't going to care to try and earn the weapons b/c they won't use them. I for one will probably switch back to medic full time and stop playing as other classes...just like how I started playing the game.

16 Uber medic is FTW! I'll be working my way to all the acheveiments for any class anyways

 

[shadohunter]

yeah. in the first week or so everyone would wanna be medic, but the it'll die down to maybe 3 a team.

 

[blackhawksniper]

I put 10.

I think intially the amount will be high, but the amount will steadily decrease a week or so after the patch comes out.

Spies are gonna love it, less people to shoot at them.

3, it won't change much. The achievements seem to be reserved for pretty hardcore medics to me.

 

[Fuse]

i say 6

 

[Firethem]

I put 8, because all the team's gonna be ubered. No one wants to win their achievements while losing the game ^_^
More than that, I personnaly dislike playing the medic. I'm not that good with it and the mysteries of the auto-crit bonesaw are hard for me to get. However, I'll play it just to get the achievements. I really found it sad when I learned that the first achievements you have to do when you buy TF2 are for nothing. Now that there is some use for it, I want in.

Maybe I won't do the demomans ones... Hope they get last in the new achievements series to come ^_^

 

[Arcy]

I hope only 3, I really don't want to see convoy syndrome hit the medics like it hits snipers.

 

[Noravic]

On the games I play, there are usually 2 or 3, 4 to be optimistic, medics. This number shouldn't increase dramatically, since people that have never played the medic probably won't see the achievements as any good reason to start. They're cool, but they won't make the other classes any less enticing.

I have a feeling that I might be wrong.

 

[Sharp67]

i would say 3 because i really dont believe that people care about the medic achievements that much other than the ones who regularly play medics themselves..i will prob be medic for the 1/2 of the achievements because i dont have the patience to get some of those things you have to do

6

 

[Booster37]

I say 5. People will realize that there is NO way that a team can function with that many medics. At least if they plan on winning.

 

[>:| Face]

Pff. I think all matches are going to be 32 medic bonesaw free for alls.

Actually, I think it'll increase a bit. Most servers I play on I'm used to seeing 0 medics. Now there will probably be at least one.

Although if these achievements hit the 360 with gamerpoints attached, then my original guess of 32 medic matches stands. (Actually, 360 is limited to 24, but w/e)

 

[Adilor]

6 is my guess. There'll be a lot of people that'll be all achievement-crazy at first, but they'll all die off after probably a week once it becomes apparent that it's not going to be quite as easy as they'd thought.
