You still are counted as a death in the match, you still lose your stuff (I'm pretty sure), and you still come back with new stuff.
Yes, I know it helps the medic/triage/logi player assisting you get SP, but what's in it for you?
Thx!

On your other points, Forlom, thx for pointing out the orbital strike benefit. I use to always play ambush, and am still getting use to this stuff. I had already mentioned helping a teammate and was asking about personal advantages. I'm not saying one shouldn't try to help the medic teammates, but was trying to clarify what I was asking.
On your above point quoted in this message, I've tested it too, but differently. If you have only 1 death for yourself, get "killed" and are bleeding out, but you get revived, if you then look at the players list that shows both teams (from the Start button in game), you then will show 2 deaths for yourself. Check out that and see what you get. I could see how maybe we could both be right depending upon the programing.
I didn't check the available clones or how the game counts them. I didn't even think to. I only checked the Kill/Death column in the players list.
Thx!

Hmmm... I know you come back restocked to full ammo, grenades, etc.
Maybe you just lose the stuff you used and that's what I was looking at. That would make sense that you should lose that. IOW, you start with 30 grenades, use 3 (down to 27), get killed/revived with 3 more grenades (down to 24). I bet that is what I was looking at.
BUT, I think the number of Dropsuits goes down in the same way. IOW, you start the game with 20 Dropsuits available, get killed/revived one time, and then killed. I think the total of the Dropsuits available then would show 18, not 19.
I'll have to check that Dropsuit quantity again.
Thx!

Ah.... that could be a good point. I'll pay more attention to check that aspect out.

Big THX! to everyone who's posted.  Many things I hadn't considered and some excellent points made.
And no, Carilito, I wasn't trolling. LOL
Thx again!
