The targeting is improved but could still use further refinement, however I'm going to focus this post on another aspect of the revival system, the desire to be revived.
If the current "man down" icon were altered so that it only appeared on the screen after a player hits the button to request help this would allow players who are downed control over if/when they're revived while not creating situations where a Logi gets shot and/or wastes time trying to revive someone who's going to "refuse the revive" (as per other suggestions on the topic).
On a related subject, effective revivals could be increased and time wasted reduced by connecting the current blink mechanic to the heartbeat thus signaling (among those who've requested help) the imminence of bleed out allowing true triage decisions to be made within the battle.
TL;DR
Make the revival icon only show up if help is requested.
Make the flashing of the revival icon sync with the heart beat of bleed out.
Cheers,

I don't like the idea of not showing the Icon, because a few people are to lazy to hit it (does it anything right now???)
I would like if the icon is turning red or something like this if you hit the button (or jump or spreading stars i don't know...)

I don't know why this isn't already in the game, as that is how most people would assume the "call for help" button works. |

definately agree, especially the blink to the heart rate. We definately need some way to determine who to revive and how long we have to do it. |

I like the Idea. One I also play medic in a scout outfit, with just reviving people. I also I have a logic outfit. What really annoys me is people who die only 20 yards from me and they don't do any thing, they don't hit request button. I go in under fire with people covering for me and when I get there, they hit respawn button. So I put me and my squad in danger for nothing. if I didn't see the icon in the first place, I would of never gone for him. |

Agreed with OP's proposals.
How about some indicator showing which downed infantry is your squad too? |

I disagree with that, Then People will just go to their squad to revive them, even if they are further away and put them before the team. Where they might of been able do both. They go to squad member and revive them and run back and their time limit is up and they respawn. Not knowing who you are reviving helps in the fairness. |

Personally would prefer it if revives were removed altogether. I lost that battle a long time ago, though :'(
These ideas aren't bad though. My only suggestion would be to update the actual topic of the OP to make it more clear at a glance what you're suggesting :) |

On the other side of this I would ask y'all to consider the feedback for the downed unit. Often times I'll be down and I get the message sayin there is a triage in the area. Great! But sometimes they just aren't heading my way.
I think a lot of people bleed out because they don't know someone is on the way to stick em. Having the logis on the radar show that they are logis thereby allowing down clones to know if someone is on their way and they can wait, or if no one is on route and they might as well respawn would go a long way towards avoiding....misunderstandings. |

Both excellent ideas.
I'd also like it if, when you are downed, the friendly with a nanite injector in your area appears differently on your minimap, as a + or something insead of a circle. Just so you can see whether the nanite injector is moving to revive you, or running past you and away from your corpse, or temporarily engaging an enemy nearby but potentially coming to get you if he wins, or what. |

I understand you point, but a squad member will stay and cover while I continue rezzing and won't run off when they are being repaired. |

Can we also get the ability to look around while "dying"? So we can assess whether it is worth it to wait and relay better intel to our medics? |
