Medic Mode is on

[DorkFish]

I'm sure most of you guys already know this, but Medic Mode is on our servers. Typing "!medic" without quotes give you some health back, only when your health is red. You can bind this to a key by typing this into the console window:

bind KEY "say !medic"

the KEY is where you type the key you want it to be your medic button. It seems like it has 0 delay health regeneration***

Have fun!

I did an edit on this so people do not abuse the medic thing... Who do I contact or PM on pretty darn easy way on how some people can benefit more than others?.. It doesn't really involve much scripting knowledge, but I don't want to post on public forum...

Thanks!

OK, this made no sense to me Anyways, I dislike medic mod. But when you do bind it to a key, copy this into your console `: bind "key" "say !medic" With key being the key you press. Do not forget the quotation marks.

I dont like medic mod, takes away the reality in the game.

You should try it. It only heals you when you are hurt really bad. And it give you back like 25% of health, not full health. Its nice.

Medic mod adds reality to the game. You're probably thinking from a scrimmer or CAL perspective. In life you can have a medic on the field.

How is medic mode realistic?

Medic mode works instantly... as soon as you press the heal bind button. Meaning that as you are fighting and shooting, you can also continuously press the heal button. Because u can do this many times.. if you are getting shot by Thompson or MP40, you will be healed every time your health goes below and u keep tapping that heal button.

It does have spam protection so you can't just push it many many times at once.. So I tend to tap the button only while being shot at and fighting. This way, the people who don't know about medic mode have disadvantage. Of course.. if someone were to double bind the heal button to move and shoot buttons, he will auto heal when he moves... so during a fight, as moving, he will be healed.

Medic gives you back 40 health, but you must have under 40 health to use it. Therefore you cannot use it twice in a row without getting shot in between.

 

[DorkFish]

yeh, using it as getting shot lets u get health back in between shots. Works well against assault when they are med/far distance. I'm not sure but maybe putting some delay and making you unmovable for 1 second while healing sounds like a good idea.

Medic won't save your butt unless you think very fast. Most of the time your already beyond hope as that last bullet penetrates. As you push the medic bind or type medic, or yell medic; someone else is shooting you. Oh, but I will use it to go after Bas time and time again.

This is terrible news.

How is that, last I knew a bullet wound pretty much took you out of action?

 

[Quaffer]

This is terrible news.

Not to worry. There hasn't been a medic born that can bind a headshot.

 

[habsfan]

Yay !!! medic mod is on

 

[Not-Z]

Loving the mod.

From what I've realized, I'm too slow to use it most of the times anyway.

But when my health is low and in red, just seeing that go up gives me a morale boost so yea....... good stuff.

I don't like it. The possibility for abuse is too high, and it takes away from the realism of the game. When there are those who using their binds can heal themselves mid-gunfight to prevent a death, it creates a very frustrating playing field, for me - just knowing the possibility is there.

Yes there are medics in real life, but you sure as hell can bet they aren't able to bandage themselves while taking a bullet to the gut. Nor is it instantaneous, nor is it likely that any amount of bandaging will sustain you time and time again if you keep getting shot down "into the red".

Ah well, I guess I'll just let things run their course. Plenty of other eGO games to play, anyway.

Edit: After playing more with the mod, I don't hate it quite so much. Primarily because not a lot of people know about it. This, however, makes me feel guilty whenever I use it - as I feel I have an advantage over people. However, I notice moreso now that it doesn't change the game very much from its previous state. I still get killed just as much.

Given this, I suppose for now I'll change my "I don't like it" to...

I don't like it that much, but...in the event that I can use this tool to kill more bad guys. I'll support it!

 

[Shadowstill]

I don't like either... the only use I would have for it is when I fall from the ladder on Avalanche's USMC spawn...
but still... I might get used to it, you never know

 

[H-Bomb]

Yeah! (How do I bind?)

 

[xloon]

Personally I don't mind it. Everything has it's own ups and downs, but overall I think its fine. I use it when I skydive off roof tops of avalanche =D

Very, very, veeeeeeeery true. The only time medic is useful is when you get behind enemy lines, hide out, and have some time to chill.
