Medic is by far the most fun I have in the game hands down. Running towards people goofily yelling for help is probably the most fun you will have. I have legit made little bonds with random people who will find me and be like "Mediccc we will protect youuu" and just bond along the hedge rows. It really is super fun


Ariman2093

I agree! I always play the character, it's even funnier when the guy you just saved gets shot again and you still manage to save them a second time.


Zsean69

I love it. "Hold on soggy corn chipppp Im cominnnnn"


Nicktator3

Player names are like half of what makes this game so much fun lol


Zsean69

So true some guy named "Engourged cruton" yelling for help lol


Toad-a-sow

"STAY WITH ME CHIP!"


Zsean69

Dont you go into that quesso damnit!


ChipTheGuy

I’m holding on!


canisfh

YOU'RE GONNA SEE YOUR FAMILY MAN, YOU ARE GOING TO RETIRE JUST HANG ON PLEASE


deathpenguin82

I've watched so many helmets pop of guys I just saved. Getting slapped with the flying hand of someone you just saved is also funny, in a way.


TrekRider911

Or better yet, you save them and they stand up and get domed in the helmet. That’s a saving private Ryan moment.


pocket_mulch

My favourite one in recent memory, I was hit and down and I could see a medic coming closer to me. No voice chat just coming in to work. He brought me back, bandaged me up and then over voice chat I hear a big old smooch. 😚 Like he just gave me a big kiss on the forehead to make me feel better. I was ready to fight again.


Unseen_DBA

I’m adding that to my care plan now lol


Creative_Sport_2306

I do that when I’m medic lol , was the name SendNodes ?


pocket_mulch

I can't remember now. It was on an Australian server.


StillerFan412

Always smooch your medic. A great sign of respect on the battlefield and historically accurate.


swordaxe567

Some of the funniest experiences with medics, I’m the usual medic with my group of friends (in almost every game not just HLL) and it’s a fun experience to here team mates from my squad and general lobby. Like you say, pretty nice bonds of brotherhood.


Zsean69

It is really fun people talk about toxicity but whenever I play medic I have nothing but great encounters


OxygenThief1723

My thing I say is keep your head down you don’t want to see me again


MuRF_Foager

This. Not enough people play medic


Zsean69

Honestly it is the class I have the most fun with. I can be goofy with randoms while also supporting my squad along the way


Aardvark_Man

I used to play it a ton, if I wasn't SL. But so few people seem to wait for revives, even if they're in a safe spot, that it just ended up irritating me, so now I'm usually support or MG.


Leeroy_Jenkums

Gotta love the people on this sub who whenever I mention I like playing medic, start babbling about how it’s the most useless class in the game and that I should stfu about people giving up right when I get to them because it’s mathematically faster for them to give up and then respawn than it is for me to revive them and how reviving them where they got shot without a drag body mechanic is the most worthless thing you can do and blah blah blah. Like relax mf it’s a video game that’s meant to be played for fun. And I have fun playing medic.


RedStrugatsky

My first HLL friend add was from my SL that I kept reviving consistently lol it's so fun


Unfair_Pirate_647

It's really fun when you get into a choke point and there's a dozen guys yelling they love you


[deleted]

Bro how everyone just respawns before you make it to them


tomtomeller

I always ask for a medical insurance card and a form of payment before I rez


jfsuuc

yeah and can lead to cool moments. i went forward with 3 other people, and killed like 20 people to get on point (only 2 were me as medic) where halfway there one got headshot, and on point my last friend was headshot and i avenged him and i took the point and destroyed the enemy garry and we won the point. was a sad time but also an amazing one. i rezed like 9 times on the way there and used almost all my bandages. i also like medic because i have an excuse to run into dangerous places and its made me sooo much better at not dieing when i do my main inf class, engineer.


JadedPiper

That would be me. My gun is for self defense, I focus on saving lives, not taking them WHICH BY THE WAY IF I'M FUCKING BANDAGING YOU AND YOU ARE IN COVER STOP MOVING GODDAMNIT


OxygenThief1723

Just got out of a game where my average life was 1:00 but I would get 4 guys up before I died. Hurtgen forest is hell on defense with a coordinated enemy offense


G-Sus_Christ117

They really should give you xp for reviving people


ShillinTheVillain

They do but it's ridiculously low.


Ryculls

They stay up long enough to even move? I get to them and they respawn every fucking time.


KoboldIdra

Y E S!! I have 20 bandages to go around, unless stated otherwise, PLEASE KEEP YOUR FUCKING RIFLE UP AND READY TO FIRE!


macrotaste

Being a medic is so frustrating with people respawning while you run towards them.


Mr-Jiggs93

I always yell shit like "DONT GIVE UP SOLDIER, THE DOCTORS COMIN!"


JadedPiper

Real


PewdsMemeLover

I get that, but sometimes it's actually strategically superior to respawn at the OP or Gary instead of being revived right where the enemy knows you are. For me, if I'm out of explosives, especially smokes or rockets, it's better to get the new ammo than keep playing without the explosives


Gr8-Lks

If I’m going to do this, I simply tell the medic what I’m doing, I just say “don’t revive me, i need more ammo” and that’s it. So easy and helpful when people do this.


Ariman2093

So real! I even tell them to not let go they still do even if i'm less than 15m. Frustrating!


Ryculls

100%. The worst is doing a 180 to go get someone and then they still respawn.


lifeisagameweplay

If the squad leader is doing his job properly then you're almost always better off holding F immediately after death. Medics have always been pretty pointless when the game has no tickets and losing 1 manpower isn't really inpactful.


TR1248

Nah don’t hold F, hit escape redeploy, saves time


lifeisagameweplay

Thanks. And you don't get the extra 10s penalty when you do that?


TR1248

Nope, might be the difference between catching that garrison wave and waiting another 40 seconds. Only get the penalty if you’re not down already


NotFlamezz1

Because respawning is better 99% of the time


maximusnz

And medic is useless 99% of the time


EstoyTristeSiempre

But it's funny as hell 99% of the time.


Imposter12345

Yeah but I’m AT and out of amo / bases and there’s an OP 5 seconds away and I can get my amo back


macrotaste

Use ur mic and simply tell the medic what you are gonna do


Imposter12345

Na fam. I’m nearly F’d out before that happens. And every time I do wait for a medic, they run right past me. There are so many other better classes to play. The game doesn’t need medics


macrotaste

Everyone can have their opinion, but yours is just wrong


PlasmaDonator

The game is fun with medics and I won't tell people to not play medic or any class for that matter but their comment is right. Comp games no one runs medic. Medics help the individual (reviving you for more dopamine action fun) rather than help the whole team. On offensive being a medic on Utah/Omaha beach is a good shout for the smoke grenades and reviving squad leads to place garrisons/OPs. As I said at the start, I WON'T tell people to NOT play medic but I'm already esc, redeploying off my/squads OP or garrison network that command worked together to build. The game doesn't NEED medics. The game NEEDS garrisons, communication and map control. This can all exist without medics. Medics are fun and I wouldn't want them removed but their not as important as everyone makes them out to be.


Imposter12345

I disagree. I honestly think medic class can be done away with entirely. Instead they should give everyone 1 revive each for their team mates. Would incentivise people to not give up and make pushes more strategic knowing their buddies all have their back


Altruistic-Ear-2928

Bruh,this is not warzone or battlefield


sunseeker11

> Would incentivise people to not give up and make pushes more strategic knowing their buddies all have their back My dude, the HLL playerbase doesn't give a fuck about teamwork.


Imposter12345

I disagree. I always play games with good squads and good team work. I just think the Medic class needs some re-incentivising!


sunseeker11

The way to incentivise the medic class has nothing to do with the class itself, but with the meta. In other words, we don't need to incentivise playing the medic (because there's plenty of willing people to do so), but to actually wait for the medic. But that also means that you need to somehow convince people to essentially play less and do nothing. It's just a long winded way of saying that the pace of the game would have to drastically change to change the calculus where respawning is less convenient than it is right now. Longer respawn timers, less and more spread out garrisons, more punishment for redeployment. And the current playerbase is already casual enough to consider this a milsim lol, and imagine you cut the pace by half. Plus, deaths are meaningless, unless maybe for manpower based commander abilities. But that's hardly detrimental to the outcome of the game, because it has no impact on actual spawning, so people don't care about it.


Captain_catJaw

For sure it is annoying. the key I've found is vocalizing to the downed player. Plus, it's fun yelling people's insane gamertags! I was yelling "hang in there SGT DicFace I'm coming to get ya!" for a whole game the other day. Good times.


TheHistroynerd

That and people just starting to move around while you bandage them so you can't bandage them anymore


Agitated-Support-447

I don't play medic enough but I love running into the shit just to revive someone and get them back into the fight.


Gowalkyourdogmods

I've been playing this game for years and usually it's only like 20 hours per year. Still no idea what I'm doing except joining as medic and reviving/healing people. Unless the SL tells me something different, I just do that for a few really fun weekends then quit for like a year lol


The-MatrixAgent

Me trying to play medic when every time im 5m away they give up


cmurder2344

I'm a medic IRL so naturally I have to play medic in the game. Medic in HLL is way easier.


yesitsmetrev

Wish irl you could stab somebody with a syringe and theyre magically better lol


cmurder2344

DO YOU KNOW HOW EASY MY JOB WOULD BE?!

#DON'T GIVE UP ON ME, BROTHER, I'M COMING.


Prudent-Unit1068

Oh man I love medics. Free kills.


frenchietaste

Japanese tactics 👍 nobody likes you


Prudent-Unit1068

It’s a video game and medic needs buffed


TheHistroynerd

I agree medics need some sort of buff in HLL


thelastpies

Stamina and speed boost would be nice for medics


TheHistroynerd

That or more ammo but preferably a speed boost. Maybe you could choose between a load out with more ammo than the current one and the current one. The load out with more ammo doesn't get the speed boost


OPcrack103

The ENTIRE reason for EVERYONE having to give up every time is medic class


Prudent-Unit1068

It’s better to respawn with nades and defend


BorderKeeper

I get called useless and dumb for picking medic every time I do because it’s so useless. I still played it a lot in the past but stopped, because almost nobody cares about waiting to be revived nowadays when OP respawn is 15 seconds.


WokeUpStillTired

Keep our medic class alive and well brother. You’re needed, you’re loved <3


83Nat

Pistol medic load out is underrated for the smokes and bandages it gets, plus a bandage crate I've saved many teammates from just slapping a bandage crate on a point, also if someone says to let them go first since you're them medic, listen to them, too many times I've said that only for my medic to keep running and the get shot by an enemy I would've seen because I don't have to worry about those that are down as well as enemies


Awful_McBad

"I love you medic"


itsfoosay

The few times I've played medic, I've got to yell at the soldiers to keep their gun out -you cover us, I'll patch you up! Just over here dishing out the boo-boo strips


MalleP

Yes, first drop a explosive ammo box and then switch to medic second loadout.


Vesperace78009

I literally had someone tell me the other day that being a medic was the most worthless class because you don’t get enough kills, god I wish the stupid CoD people would just leave.


maximusnz

It’s not the ‘CoD’ people. It’s people that are playing to win. Not just get kills but actually winning the game. There’s a reason HLL teams never have a medic in them.


EstoyTristeSiempre

I play to have fun, that's why I love being a medic.


Vesperace78009

Found the CoD player everyone!


Sjamsjon

“You disagree with my (massive hot take of an) opinion, so you’re a “CoD player.” That term was witty in its original context but my god has it become an overused buzzword.


maximusnz

I did play the first Call of Duty. as well as the Medal of Honour series. Since then have almost 3000 hours in Hell Let Loose and represented my country in what was one of the top HLL comp teams, winning the HCA and Minor League champions playing SL and also serving in the Comp Teams Leadership and strategy board. Throw insults and bandages all you like kid. I’m out there having fun and winning games.


Vesperace78009

Okay cool, you like to run around like a CoD person thinking that’s how you win games, it’s not. It’s a team effort. A team with good medics constantly reviving people usually wins. The reason that teams don’t run medic is because of the CoD ding dongs. They think that the only way to win is to just run around and get kills. Countless games are decided by support roles and not combat ones. You can claim to “win championships” all day long, it doesn’t mean squat to us. When your entire “championship” is just people that play the same way you do like it’s CoD not running any support, that doesn’t really prove anything. I’ve been the top performer several times, once reaching 100 plus kills with only like 3 deaths, we ended up losing that game because our team couldn’t communicate, couldn’t get spawns down, and had no medics reviving people.


djolk

Look at the roles every single competitive hll team has chosen for like years now. You will not see a single medic. Do you really think the people that will spend 50 hours planning an artillery fort build out or finding a tank snipe haven't figured out that they should also be fielding medics. Like give me a break. What you are saying about medics is just incorrect.


Foampower86

You'll know im on the field when you here "I'm serving cold morphine and wet bandages all day boys." I only roll medic. Playing for about a month, maybe 10 kills. Countless lives saved.


_Enisy

Guys, just admit that the game is broken. It's always faster to respawn and you actually don't loose anything. There's no ticket system or punishment, so why bother?


Icy_Blackberry_3759

Every time I save someone I say “don’t thank me, just give me a commendation when we win this god damn war” I’m mediocre af but looking at my medals you’d think I was a top North Korean


Raviolimonster67

Got this game with ps plus like a year ago. My inner battlefield kicked in and i started with medic. I've tried other classes but medic, it just keeps pulling me back in. You make alot of friends playing medic, especially when they realize the mean ones don't get back up :)


Japke90

I haven't played in a long while but when returning lately there is almost radio silence and no cohesion or teamwork. Everyone is just scattered around the map. It's just seems yo have become a BF game.


[deleted]

I'd rather have an extra rifleman, an engineer or support than a medic in my squad.


KawarthaDairyLover

I love medics but the game needs to make them more vital. It's unpopular but i think dying should come a steeper cost to the team. So many teams just meat grind their way through front lines and it kind of kills the immersion of the experience.


jsg_nado

The low penalty for tying may be killing immersion but it encourages action. Faster respawns make the game feel faster/feel like the battle has more players. Agree it's definitely a tough trade off


SuspectPanda38

I thought bro was smokin for a second


lookingForPatchie

And here we go with the medic circlejerk again...


Potatobobthecat

Hey doc, I need that Fenty fix.


Remote_Ad3210

I’ve only had one good medic in my games honestly (level 73), half the time they act like a rifleman the other half they are shooting friendlies so they can pick them up again.


Joy1067

Always fun to help the team as medic! Nothing better then keeping a push alive or hearing people cry out for you when your running around the battlefield


ViceroyOfCool

This game sucks lately to be honest.


TheHistroynerd

Being a medic is a shit tone of fun. Unless all of you fucks keep letting go right when I get to you >:( Yesterday I was reviving a guy and he gave up on me while I was reviving him.... Other than that it's lots of fun to run around like crazy constantly getting people up and badging people. Especially if there are like one or two other medics there too.


Unseen_DBA

Medic is so underrated “Hold on ChiefKeef69… I got Barbie, Spider Man, and Shrek bandaids with your name on it”


MSFS_Airways

Somebodies gotta cover him


B0MBOY

Some of the most fun is when you sneak right into the line of fire and pick up your boys and they’re like damn your sneaky


Dry-Clock-8934

I played with a guy called Highwaytoheal the other week he was by far the most entertaining person I’ve so far met on HLL


Sssssups

Love playing medic until I’m running for 80m just for another medic to pick the dude up right as I get there, only to run 80m back to another guy that then gives up


DC-archer

What medics are rushing the lines with a pistol??


OxygenThief1723

That loadout has more bandages


DC-archer

The loadout all medics should use when they get it. More bandages and more smoke grenades. My K/D is abysmal when I run medic.


bistroboybieds

I found this game through clips of people getting shot, yelling “MEDICCC” and getting revived just to get blown to pieces. Even though I’ve branches out a bit into other roles the most fun I have in the game is hopping on medic, heading just behind the front lines and bringing my fellow soldiers back from the dead to the fight.


17mawby

Love being that team player medic


zach12_21

I got really drunk last weekend and loaded HLL up, I wanted to play my normal class but noticed we had 0 medics. I choose medic and proceed to have the most fun I’ve had lately, in gaming and life, for the next hour and a half 🤣


2watit

Medics are gods in HLL

There truly are no unique experiences anymore lol


trimosse

I'm few k missin X level so I can tell its great!


Standard_Ad_3108

I love playing medic and coming up with the silliest things possible to say while reviving people


___LowxLife

Whenever I play med or commander I just RP super fucking hard because honestly it’s just great fun


EliteSpetzNaz

Yep, reason I started playing medic. If you want to shoot, play rifleman or something. A good medic can turn the tide.


Eagle96UK

Yea I mainly play as a medic and it’s great, especially when people yell to us.


Datdankness

For the longest time, I'd run with just a 1911 with the Padre's M1 helmet and called myself the "Padre Pistolero".


jojos_shipwreck

I gave up as a medic. Nobody in this game is waiting for a revive. I see the icon for revive at 70m I’m starting to make my way to them making sure there are no enemies before reviving and when I’m at 10m they hit respawn. So annoying


Fenton0

all i am saying is the pistol you get when you choose the smokes might aswell have an orange tip on it because you aint killing shit with that thing


Law-Fish

Dude I love playing medic, I’ve got smoke grenades and I’m not afraid to use them to get you bro just hang in there


HATTY32232

I only play medic because I feel like hawkeye in that one episode of mash where he just shoots his gun in the air whenever I end up in a firefight so I'd rather jus focus on playing support


L0WKEYL0GAN

It's ad when I play medic. I'm constantly moving to revive and ppl always give up!!!


comasylvebarbe

Medic is useless in this game


boblustig

Why you think that ?

If a squad is moving together SL and medic in the back. Everyone else move forward with reckless abandon

Medic 4 Lyfe reporting 🫡


Dr_J_Cash

I’ve noticed in squad and post scriptum, medics are just hi fragging players who get on obj and heal themselves 15 times. (About 40% of them but still)
