Actually the better logis tend to use garbage needles and reps in order to soak up the most WP

Hate the game not the player :/

To be honest, I think that nanite injectors are a broken concept right now, that really needs to be reconsidered. I can't remember the last time I actually wanted to be revived, it almost always ends in disaster.

As somebody said, droplinks are a lot more useful, and allow you to re-enter the battle from a more strategic location with full health.

I would consider a few changes:

1) Allow us to "tap out" more easily, so we don't get revived if we don't want to.

2) Get rid of the delay when poking somebody.

3) Make the revived player invulnerable (but also immobile) for a second or two, to allow them to assess the situation and get ready to dodge.

4) Instantly start the shield recharge, so by the time the player becomes vulnerable, their pants are not entirely down.

5) Allow us to destroy a clone by shooting the dead body a few times.

This wasn't very creative because it's basically taken directly from Return to Castle Wolfenstein, a game in which the medic class worked flawlessly IMO.

The current system basically punishes "combat revives" by making the revived player extremely vulnerable, but that's not fair because it wasn't the choice of the player to be revived. The above changes would make combat revives far more feasible and really allow a medic with quick reactions to keep his team in the game. I don't think it would be overpowered any more than it was in RtCW, where players developed many strategies to deal with it, and the possibility of destroying clones means that medics can be denied with some extra effort.
