Conditions for Reviving/Squad spawning

[Dan H]

As of right now, you can heal any team mate that is 'killed' and spawn on on squad member who is alive. This is too much power to the medic and squads and should be balanced by restricting when or when not these actions can be performed.

You shouldn't be able to revive if:
Headshot for sniper rifle of mounted MG
Direct hit from 40mm, RPG, tank shell etc... (must hit the body directly)
If you have already been revived once (this can help stop stat padding too!)

You shouldn't be able to spawn on a squad member if:
You are being attacked
Too close to enemy (just by a few meters)

Comments? Agree or disagree?

Kill the medic first. If they are all medics, run away, grenade, noob tube or die. Your choice :)

Considering you get a ticket back for reviving a person, this risk is generally worth it.

Less it's the superior american counterpart (visually?) with his badass mustache.

Disagree and disagree

MEdics
-headshots are very common, medics would basically be able to do nothing
-EVERYONE noobtubes, same as above
-more than one revive is fine, if you leave the medic alone then it should bite you in the buttocks

Squads
-Most of my time is behind enemylines close to them, noone would be able to spawn on me and alot of people wouldn't like this
-Its already a bad idea (though a good surprise tactic) to spawn mid firefight as you'll usually catch a bullet with your face

I completely disagree. I also have a couple questions for you Dan H. Do you not like when a medic revives you and you don't have to wait to respawn? I'm talking in general and not those situations where you get revived to get instakilled. Do you not like it when a squadmate spawns on you and helps you out in a jam?
