Why is the medic, the one who heals everyone and offers the most support...... YELLOW!?!?!?!??! The most stand out color on the field. Can anyone answer that question |

Why do ambulances have backward letters on the hood telling people what it is? So it don't get bombed.
In dust...it has the opposite effect.

Well it is so your team can spot the medic and move towards him, however this has the negative effect of attracting gun fire. Back in WWII (Is this true today?) medics used to have red crosses painted on their bags and helmet. This made the medic easily determend by freindly and foe alike. |

Because it stands out, so you know who the medic is (It's a god awful idea and should be removed, make every suit a standard colour and then add a paint bucket.) |

My thoughts exactly. I made threads complaining about that post-uprising. I still think the yellow is silly, but it's not as bad as it was.
It makes sense not to have your role telegraphed to an enemy, that being said - I'd be ok with some non-garish cosmetic suit differences. |

Difference is, in WWII, it was considered immoral (at least in Europe) to shoot the medic. It's not like the person they're going to is going to instantly pop up and start shooting.

So.... you don't like the color Yellow?
What color do you want the Logi to be otherwise?
I think that a nice mild Green wouldn't be that bad.
Forest green, Enough so you can tell who is Logi, but not enough to make you pop out as much as you do now. |

It's spelled backwards "so it don't get bombed" WTF It's spelled backwards so you can read it in rear view mirror as it races up behind you. |

think he meant on top of the actual ambulance, not the hood, which was a real thing.
WW2 bad to shoot medics, not that it didnt happen tho.
color distinguishes the logi so you know where to get reps. bet your ass the enemy is going to want him dead, that is if they have any semblance of competency |

Why rely on suit color?
We have this super tac-net, why can't it identify your team's medic's location any time he's on your map?
Why can't the logistic suit get a constant update of teammates health and ammo status? You want a way to distinguish a logi suit without making it an OP slayer? This is one way. |

And perfectly good alignment for crosshairs of a sniper rifle.
Patches been done away with because people don't respect that rule at all.

Because they're like bees. They promote genetic diversity.
Those repair tools and injectors? They're not just giving, they're also taking. Logis are after your precious bodily fluids, using them to get the most diverse gene pool for the cloning vats, to create the ultimate soldier!
They're bees who are paving the way for the African Giant Hornet of the clone world to be brought into existence...
Bees! BEEEEEEEEEEEEEES! |

I believe Sentinels have green. Commandos have red and scouts have blue. Only other colour i can think of that won't be easy to get confused with the others is pink. But that'd be a whole lot worse than yellow. :P |
