Rush Of Blood

Re: Rush Of Blood

Since we have 3 d-pad buttons unused right now. I think that the Metal Gear Online kinda comma rose would fit in perfectly.

I have mentioned this already prior to release, but for those who either hasn't played it or doesn't remember, here's the idea.

You basically would had 3 different sets of commands/reqests. These would be Defense, Attack and General.

So if you want to use Attacking comma, you press d-pad right(for example), then you would get 3 commands, get the gold, attack left or right flank(just an examples). And with corresponding button the command would go out with radio.

And in defensive you would have commands for guard the gold, defuse the bomb and fall back.

Then in general you would have, thanks, need medic and need pickup.

This method is bit slow, but it's better than noting and it makes the basic commands possible.

Although this would start off a slow method it wouldnt take long to catch on before people are doing it within split seconds during combat.

Im very much for the idea as although we have strayed from the original topic, we dont necessarily need to change the rush of blood to have an improvement to the medic system.

Like that hasn't happened before...

Re: Rush Of Blood

Haha that is very true, but what im trying to say is, instead of just getting rid of the rush of blood effect, we could provide a work around that would potentially minimize the annoyance of the effect. If there were 5% more medics in the field it would be an improvement as i know i have played 15 hours in game and been purposely healed once, which is a disgrace really.

I only don't like the 'rush of blood' effect when im sniping. Then it's really annoying...

But i gotta agree that something has to be done to get the medics to do their job.

Since 1 support out of 15 actually gives you health when you need it. And 1 out of 100 is the kinda support who runs straight threw the enemy lines to give you health, and after that runs back to the place where he left.

I was just thinking, what if auto injector would be in every class? And the catch would be that there is limit how many time you can use it. For example after it has been used 2 times, you'd had to find either ammo box, or support guy(refill from the health pack).

Re: Rush Of Blood

Again its a good idea but i feel that would only make the medics a problem, the amount of times people would look round a corner, take 50+ damage then auto inject would be countless, having all those medics just sitting there waiting for the points to role in as they resupply everyone.

Good point, but atleast then the medics would do what they are suppose to...

Maybe we just have learn how to deal with the 'rush of blood' effect. And just hope that the medics would learn what the word medic means...

Re: Rush Of Blood

I think right now the game is still fresh and people are still going after the points. Im hoping once is settles down people will explore the inventory of their kit more and look to helping the team in other ways.

Re: Rush Of Blood

How about getting rid of the auto injector completely? This would give the medics more incentive to give out medi packs as they could gain more points.

I also think they should make Assualt the medic class again to give people more incentive to play the class rather than support as there are more support guys than assualt guys I find anyway.

Re: Rush Of Blood

^^ So true, the majority of the guys running around are Support/Demo.

Its kinda sad that there are SO MANY support guys running around, yet very little healing going on, it proves somethings not right lol.

I totally agree with Stonecolds idea, MGO's speech menu is great and i would love to see something similar put into BC. For a game so based on teamwork, communication is really poor in-game. Every other Bf game had a commo rose (idk about BF:MC, i never played it) that is seems odd that this one doesnt.

Re: Rush Of Blood

There are 2 points which I think mainly let this otherwise excellent game down.:

Communication
VOIP is poor and unstable. Mics often just stop working (On PS3 anyway) and there is no mute or push to talk keys/buttons which would be of great benefit. Also as StoneCold stated a commo rose is really need so that we can ask for medics or repairs to vehicles or communicate without VOIP to our team mates. In fact, if we had a commo rose then the VOIP probably wouldn't be as big a problem as it is.

Squads
The squad system is pretty poor compared to previous battlefield games. You cannot change/start squads or switch teams in game. This makes it difficult to join a game with a friend in and play in the same squad or even find some good players on your team and start a squad with them rather than being put with a bunch of randoms who might be more interested in sitting in/fighting over the artillery.

Re: Rush Of Blood

Oh man, don't even get me started on the PS3's mic problems lol.

I haven't managed to get my mic working in bad company once! Works like a charm in every other game, but in BC i get nothing.

Really hoping they do something about this soon.

I have done that soo many time.. Run half way across the map to give someone a health pack to only find out they dont care about there life and dont even turn around for the damn pack. God that annoys me..

Re: Rush Of Blood

^^

I usually do jump-crouch-nod in-front of the support guy just to say thanks. Last night i even sent message(through the met players list) to the medic saying thanks.

Re: Rush Of Blood

Whenever I'm support the reason I can't heal anyone is because I have no idea who needs healing, because (unless I'm missing something) there's no real way to tell who actually needs healing, and I'm not going to just run around with a med pack always out unless I'm going for a trophy.
