While it looks like a good idea, wouldn't this thing be a swarm magnet the second someone spots the RDV carrying it in?

Smaller steps for bigger results.

Make Nanite Injectors a sidearm slot item so people actually carry them

Give all people carrying the injector or any other revive ability a special symbol on both the minimap and the field.

Make it easier for medics to find the injured

Let people burn at least part of their respawn counter while bleeding out so people actually wait for at least a few seconds

Pick 2 and call it a day!

I'm glad someone else feels revives are bad.

However, I feel they need to be removed from the game, not turned into an easymode feature to cheapen death, like you are suggesting. You are proposing an even easier, yet time consuming way to make death mean nothing in dust :( As orin says above, this does nothing but break the flow of the game and cut the pace of the game. I sure would rather respawn and run back in the time it takes for some logi to drag my corpse around before he hits me with a magic needle.

Dust is a game where death has meaning, and 'consequences'. Revives do nothing but cheapen that, and while they work (Horribly broken for balance) in other games, I don't feel that have a place in dust. If someone dies they should be dead. No retry, no do-overs. You die, you go back to the spawn screen. If you want to get back in the fight in the same area, make sure someone on your team has a drop uplink. That's how it should be, in my opinion.

Im a RPer, and even before I had gotten into Beta I had been thinking on what I wanted to do with my character, and part of it was simply to be a medic. When I got into beta the first thing i looked for on the market was how to make this happen and I found the nano-injector and trained for it, only to find it useless.

Its not that the injector is broken, that heals need to be more effective or that we need a "medi-vac" as simply put a logi is a walking medivac. You have your nano-hive, nano-injectors and a droplink you are a one man first aide station for players and their guns, the issue is, no one knows you are there and you dont know where a person has fallen.

Fix THAT issue and you have Medics. If you know im around, you wont hit the O button as readily and if I know where you are I can get to you. My Logi may not have the best armor, but I have a gun, I can kill just as easily as be killed and I will make the effort, CCP just needs to give me the tools to do so.

As far as a "medivac" goes, a simple tractor beam and DS mounted nano-injector would do rather then a new vehicle. Simply fly over the injured player, "pick him up" with the tractor and the onboard medical injectors will revive whislt the pilot GTFO, leaving the injured to jump out when ready.
