I know we’ve all bitched about rambo medics, but I’m here to ask SD (I’ll also post to ETPro) to reduce the amount of HP increase that a self-served medpack gives to a medic. Make it 3HP or something. I think this will radically change the game and make it far more fun for everyone.
I’ve thought about asking to eliminate auto-heal too, but that may be too much change at one time.
imo, auto heal is the culprit, only game where you get rewarded for running away from battle
I highly doubt SD or the ETPro team would bother with something like this, but if you asked someone like the ETPub developer it might get serious consideration. The thing is that a lot of people (myself included) don’t really consider rambo medics to be a problem.
ETPub has something for this already:
g_medics [bitmask]
Bitmask to control various aspects of the medic, to nerf or otherwise change their behavior. Currently supported flags include:
1
Medics can’t pick up their own health packs to cure themselves of poison needle effects
2
Medics can’t pick up their own health packs at all
4
Medics regenerate health at 2HP/second until they reach their base health level, usually 110-125 HP, depending on number of medics/team They then regenerate at 1HP/second until they reach maximum health
8
Medics regnerate health at 1HP/second until they reach their base health level, usually 110-125 HP, depending on numbers of medics/team then no regeneration after thatFlag 4 will take priority over flag 8 if both are set
Default is 0
We’ll in real battles medics could heal themselves, seeing as how they are medics… if were going for a somewhat realistic game here.
my 2 cents
Too late for stuff like this. People posted threads like this over a year ago. No offense.
I’m pretty sure that HYD clan server has the g_medics set to what you’re looking for. You can try playing there 66.165.122.2:27960
