Looks ugly IMO....needs more blue and yellow IMO.

TR needs more red and black.

Do you think friendly medics will show up as diamond shapes on the mini radar? That seems to be the medic shape I suppose.

Whether it's a good or bad thing, it doesn't look like it will too easy to pick out enemy medics on the battlefield. Though, he won't be jumping.

Looks like Judge Dredd decided to change careers.

The picture of him from behind makes him look like his arms have atrophied. From the waist down he seems really well built and his neck is as thick as his head, but then you have these really skinny arms...Reminds me of a mech I had in Exteel.

Edit: I think I'd like to see more white on him, with possibly less beige...Then you'd have a more chromatic colour scheme to distinguish him as a medic.

Edit II: Also, is it me, or have all the NC troops bar the infiltrator been wearing flannel shirts?

I like the distinct visual recognition of the classes. That's important. Looks good to me, clearly no problem recognizing a medic due to that distinct white helmet.

MrBloodworth · 2012-03-13, 02:46 PM

I think they look great.

Really enjoying the medic style. Can't wait to see the Terran's medic Screenshot. Love the red & black.

To me that red diamond just says, "Hey shoot here!"

As being a RL medic, i wounder if you can take your stethoscope and strangle a enemy to death with it.

MrBloodworth · 2012-03-13, 03:22 PM

I'm not saying it needs to be as slow as the original PS1.

But healing should take a moment or two, and you need to rely on your teammates during that time.

So, with that, I wonder what they mean by seconds.

Knocky · 2012-03-13, 03:22 PM

The only healing ability described is the Med App. Not very informative. Unless a PS Medic is exactly the same as an Adv Medic in PS1, which I hope is not the case.

Probably going to be playing a Medic roll myself mainly since I did that in the Army. You can keep your jump packs and glue guns and heavy assault weapons, I'm gonna be keeping my squad up.
