View Full Version : Medic Flag Carrying

I was thinking about how you walk with your flag as medic, assault, or who ever. Mostly medic for this one. I believe the medic should be able to use their shot gun. This may seem un-fair to some. Really though, it is too hard to flag, especially a recon! That seems un-fair. So the medic should be able to have like their shot gun in their left hand pointing out-ward. The flag in the other. Discuss whether you like it or not. Please don't flame me, it is just an idea.

+Rep meh if you like :D

Maybe if the mele button was the flag, it would work.

That would be unfair, when I am a Medic whilst carrying a flag I do not find it very difficult and flagging recons isn't that hard.

meds nd assults r hard 2 flag with they should have sum kind of gun

No. Not really. Still hard. It would be fair if the medic had his shot gun. Cons still have a chance, but either way. I think having the shot gun just makes it evened out.

Well, mostly medics. Maybe assaults can have a hand gun, but the medic needs a shot gun...

No giving a medic a shotgun whilst carrying a flag = to much of a pwnage, and it would be REALLY unfair for the other team and it won't only effect the recons it will effect all the classes. Anyways you have teammates whilst playing that would protect you.

No, it would make it even. They do need to swing faster if no shot gun. The other team can still destroy the medic. The medic would be running. He does most damage close. It would be even

I understand. They could use a faster swing. But still, it seems fair. What other section is there to put it in?

Uhm, I belive that SG is for close range, along with the flag.. it's just like a melee for the medic..

No...

I dont see whats so hard about flagging... I am 80% of the time using assault even when carring flags.. Use the damn armors a lot and u wont suck... I can flag 2 or 3 recons and make my way easily.. Honestly I think assault/med flagging is easier than recon... Fail Idea just Fail

GenjiBlade

Assault and medic are the same. They both flag same way, run same speed, same hp, everything. No point only giving it to medic. And it is not that hard to flag recons. I say the hardest is heavy since they melee you if your close enough to flag, or spray you easily if your not.

Explosive
08-29-2009, 03:48 PM
You replied to my comment saying if they don't have a shotgun they should have a faster swing which is where you got the idea from DefyGravity. I totally agree with this but you did not mention this in the first place, and having a shotgun isn't fair, get over it.

I disagree, it's cheap to have a 1-Kill-Hit with a flag. (Well, not really :3) But it's REALLY cheap to be able to SHOOT with the flag.

Arbadour
08-29-2009, 04:09 PM
Personally, I think if Assault and Support classes carry the flag the same, they need to BE the same.

My meaning: Melee.

Just a thought. >_>

aznremx04
08-29-2009, 04:51 PM
nahhh...that's way way too unfair. Personally, I prefer flagging with assault/med as opposed to the poking motion of recons. It's a wider swing, and it just looks and feels sexy when you get a good hit.

I say No :( Soz.

Flagging with an assault or medic isn't that hard. Back in Beta I used to be really good at flagging with an Assault, but now I'm more of a recon based flagger. And considering that if you were able to use the shotgun/M16 while you carry a flag, it might have a problem loading the shotgun, considering the Shotgun in PT sounds to be a pump action shotgun. If you were able to use the M16 with a flag the accuracy might have to be cut down by at least half to make it even.

Learn to flag, technically assualt and medic have an easier time flagging people then the recon does. The sweep of the medics flag has a larger radius then the recons little jab. Its just people are more used to flagging with recon.

If this ever gets implemented, I want heavies to be able to carry the flag on their back and use their vulcan.

Should be in Pawn Tactics Suggestions/Bugs

Way too overpowered, Shotgun is one hit kill on recons, it's not that hard to flag when you get better at it, it's possible, and it's not that unfair. If you REALLY can't stand it, get a teammate to cover you while you run with it.

well... i dont like this idea -.-... I find it SUPER EASY to flag with medic/assault... u just gotta hold it.. and then u gotta release just before someone comes up.... or just when u see a recon come up on u... if ur lucky.. he wont get all of u and u'll still have a chance to cap it..

Err, I'm fairly sure Assaults and Supports are the exact same when they have flag.
So, Support having a shotgun whilst Assault having a hand gun, epitome of unfair-ness.

-Ahh, This has already been said by GenjiBlade.

Meds and assaults carry it the same way as each other. Recons, maulers, and lancers all carry it the same way as each other. Heavies and guards can use their secondary gun, which doesn't exactly help though. xD Flagging with assaults and meds is harder then flagging with recons, maulers, or lancers, but if you practice enough you'll be better. :D

Yeah. The point here is so that the heavier armoured the class, the less cheap the flag kill, essentially.

08-31-2009, 07:53 PM
While the medic does get screwed over due to multiple reasons, doing this would make it total OP.

And if you do that people will want the guard and heavy to have their original guns while carrying a flag.

Act like your going to knife the person, but swing a split second earlier. If its a sneaky con, just have fast reactions.

if that is the case, assaults should be able to shoot with their weapon. This would cause a lot of problems and un-balance of power in pawn tactics

Flagging with medic is kinda hard i just found out if u swing the flag and the handle hits the enemy it wont be a kill it also a flag kill is a crtical so the shotgun thing is onoy critical in close range,up againts assaults,lancers,maulers,hevs u will prob get killed

Idk, seems a little to overpowered, maybe allow all classes to hold a flag like a con mauler or lancer.

speedpower6
09-07-2009, 11:18 PM
maybe if the medic is holding the flag in one hand, the SG in the other, thus reducing the accuracy of the SG. If u add this, i support.

asaulterguy
09-08-2009, 07:37 PM
flagging with the medic/assault is freaking easy. once with the class medic and i had an ally heavy, i took the flag and saved my heavy from a lancer who spawned (we were in their base) by flagging him. the enemy had our teams flag and was behind the wall. eventually i grew tired of fighting off the spawning troops because i knew we were gonna lose eventually like that. so, i tied with the recon in a flag fight. so i got 2 extreamly quick troops one with flag. swing technique is easy. so no.

09-08-2009, 07:46 PM
flagging with med is easy. You just have to get used to it and practice.
If med had a shotgun as well, it would be unfair to people who aren't good at med as opposed to people who are good at med.

Mizzou

Ronerstone
09-20-2009, 04:58 PM
Nah, a shotgun would not work because it is a 1 hit kill on a recon if you get a full shell. Too easy to cap it then. To help you with this problem, just don't take a flag when you are using the Support class.

09-20-2009, 05:03 PM

BengalTiger123

I think that if you think that flagging cons with a med is hard then maybe you could BE ANOTHER CLASS??? just an idea, otherwise its way to cheap.

ProximityX
09-24-2009, 10:36 PM
Look at the unbalance of powers this would cause. They support flag carrier will be able to shotgun and flag. Making them almost impossible to kill if a person is able to get it right. And, that means the lancer, and all the other classes can use their 1st weapon, making pawn tactics extremely boring

[B][COLOR="Blue"]Well, mostly medics. Maybe assaults can have a hand gun, but the medic needs a shot gun...

See, no. That is un-fair. They both have same flagging stance, same health, everything. And assault has a weak pistol and medic has a powerful shotgun.

Not needed. If you can't flag, then you probably just suck.
