If your corpse is camped, don't bother waiting for logi. a Log i may come and get killed instead.
Save the time, save the logi. if your grave is hot, respawn right away.
Agreed. Or better yet, if you're down in a hot zone, use your mic to tell your teammates that it's hot and call out the enemy. An assault guy like myself that always carries a med kit (nanite injector) loves nothing more than a downed teammate calling out the enemy for me to kill and then pick them up for additional points.
Those of you that still think you can be Rambo in this game and run out into a group of enemies, well, sorry bud but nobody is coming to pick you up. Please bleed out before i run into a $#!@storm of enemies just trying to pick you up only to end up lying beside you.
For those that are having trouble reviving others, assess the area where they are down. Is there a downhill slope? Is their body at the base of a hill? As said earlier, you must find where they died, not where their body currently lies. If the onscreen revive prompt doesn't appear while you're at their body, walk around them and watch for it to pop up. Try approaching from the feet of the downed player. That typically pops up the "Pess R1 to Revive" message better than any other positioning around the body. Logically, if someone is running forward and gets shot their body may fall or slide forward, therefore try a few steps back from where their feet are. If it still doesn't, use your judgement of the terrain and basic physics to find out where they may have died. If they have a mic, ask the guy where he was when killed and if his body moved anywhere afterward.
Even if you don't see the "triage is nearby" message, look at your minimap. Is there any blue triangles heading toward you? If so, wait to see if they are a medic. If not, just bleed out immediately.
Think that about covers it. |

Haha, that is awesome. I've never come across this but from now on if i can't find the rez spot i'll be jumping around the body stabbing at the air.
If this was a joke, then well played sir. My teammates will probably not take too kindly to me jumping up and down on their dead bodies while they clearly see on their screen that i'm a medic. I foresee many "you're doing it wrong"s in my future. |
