Aquinarius Zoltanus The Tritan Industries RISE of LEGION 16	Posted - 2013.05.15 16:39:00 - [1] - Quote It should be obvious to anyone who reads these forums that a lot of people have had serious difficulty getting the nanite injector to actually revive people since the Uprising patch. I'm sure it will be patched eventually, but for now we need to work with what we've got. In my experience in Uprising so far, I think I've developed a few tricks that will help make the injector work more often and wanted to share to help my fellow LogiBros out. If anyone has experienced otherwise, feel free to disagree with me and let me know what has worked for you. So here are my tips: 1. First of all, and this is a big one, one that messed me up for a while, DO NOT under any circumstances attempt to revive someone the 'old school' way by pulling out the injector from the Equipment wheel and pressing R1. This is MUCH, MUCH less reliable than the new method of pressing Circle with whatever gun/Equipment you already have out. 2. The point of revival will not always be on the body. This was true in Chromosome as well, but at least then you knew that you could revive them if you could find the exact place where they died before their body ragdolled. This is no longer true. In this build, my suggestion for finding the revival point is start at the body, then search around it in a spiral motion moving outward. While doing this repeatedly tap Circle until you find it. 3. When you hear the needle sound and start to see the stabbing animation, STOP ALL MOVEMENT UNTIL THE ANIMATION IS COMPLETE. Even though you were just doing a river dance to try to find the right spot to revive, you need to stop and wait. I think this is what has caused a lot of people trouble as well. You're still free to move around, but if you're no longer in the right spot to revive when the animation completes, it will fail and they will not be revived. And bear in mind, the actual size of the area that you're able to revive them is extremely small, hence why it's best not to move at all. Using this method, I have been able to revive people about 80% of the time I attempt it (which is much more than before, which was definitely less than half). So no guarantees, even doing it like this it sometimes fails for no reason that I can understand. And I know it's hard to do on the fly, but it's the best we have for now. I just want to discuss this because it seems that a lot of people have either stopped using the injector, or stopped attempting to revive due to frustration. Hope this helps!
Your Absolut End SVER True Blood Unclaimed. 50	Posted - 2013.05.15 16:42:00 - [2] - Quote It's sad that we actually need infos like this, while the game is fully released and the PC is starting tomorrow. I can understand that we have problems with balancing in general and other stuff, but this are core mechanics which have to work.... But thanks for this anyways. It's really interesting and I hope it helps everybody.
Jax Saurian GunFall Mobilization Covert Intervention 33	Posted - 2013.05.15 16:43:00 - [3] - Quote number 3 helps me a lot! thanks didn't know that one. one smily for you good sir... :D
Switchback Dawn Storm Wind Strikeforce Caldari State 1	Posted - 2013.05.15 16:45:00 - [4] - Quote Thank you for the info op.
Aquinarius Zoltanus The Tritan Industries RISE of LEGION 18	Posted - 2013.05.15 17:04:00 - [5] - Quote Shameless self bump, I want more LogiBros to see this. Shame that threads about the Imperfects stay up there forever, but threads that try to be helpful get buried.
KEROSIINI-TERO Seraphim Initiative. CRONOS. 354	Posted - 2013.05.15 17:09:00 - [6] - Quote bump accepted. I had not seen these tips, much appreciated.
Rolf The Viking Ill Omens EoN. 11	Posted - 2013.05.15 17:12:00 - [7] - Quote Bump for my fellow LogiBros even though I'd rather our enemies don't save their clones. Seriously, many likes to you sir. My main concern is that with hardly anyone running injectors right now and when they do, with it hardly ever working we're retraining the player base to never wait for a revive. . Hopefully this will help right that ship.
Matticus Monk Ordus Trismegistus 31	Posted - 2013.05.15 17:14:00 - [8] - Quote This is good stuff.... I had also noticed that reviving without bringing out the nanite injector, and just pressing "O" with the current weapon equipped, made my revives much more reliable.
zeroknexus DUST University Ivy League 2	Posted - 2013.05.15 20:58:00 - [9] - Quote It has been doing my head in that the Nanite Injector is so hard to use now. I will try these tips immediately. More importantly CCP please fix this broken mechanic ASAP especially as PC battles will begin in only a few more hours and clone limits will make reviving team mates a crucial part of those battles
Domingo Cervezas Cult of the Warrior 20	Posted - 2013.05.15 23:48:00 - [10] - Quote I have a medic loadout but gave up on it. I've given up on waiting for a revive too. I don't even log in my logi character anymore. I do try to stick with squads with comms though, so once this is fixed I'll help spread the word. (also bumping, maybe this should get a forum sticky for now)

Needless Sacermendor Red Fox Brigade 258	Posted - 2013.05.15 23:59:00 - [11] - Quote Good thread deserves a blatant BUMP The trouble with the O option is on KBM it translates to E ... which is fine for hitting once in a while, but spamming while doing the logi-corpse-dance with WSAD isn't easy. Luckily I have a macro mouse I can assign it to :-)
KalOfTheRathi Talon Strike Force LTD Orion Empire 453	Posted - 2013.05.16 05:18:00 - [12] - Quote Thank you very much. Maybe I will equip an injector again. Before Uprising my success rate was 99%. The failures were very system specific. Reviving someone that had been run over was either nearly impossible or impossible. I don't recall ever getting it to work. As to finding where the body fell I could ask the Downer where they were and where they got hit with the normal result I could find the death mark.
Frontline Medic On-Sight-Response 17	Posted - 2013.05.16 05:30:00 - [13] - Quote bump. for the love of god ccp fix this.good tipps op.
Kaze Eyrou ROGUE SPADES EoN. 205	Posted - 2013.05.16 05:37:00 - [14] - Quote Thanks OP. Here's hoping CCP fixes our broken revive mechanic.
Yeva Kalsani Reckoners 70	Posted - 2013.05.16 05:39:00 - [15] - Quote Awesome! Thank you. Now maybe if only people didn't actually get map-screened after getting K.O.ed, maybe they'd bother to wait around for a revive.

Loki Keller Corvus Conspiracy 0	Posted - 2013.05.16 06:25:00 - [17] - Quote Bumping, for the greater good.

That's part of the problem, IMHO.
lowratehitman Subdreddit Test Alliance Please Ignore 566	Posted - 2013.05.16 07:02:00 - [19] - Quote I have been lucky with the wheel, but not so much on the "O" button. I can never get it to come on the screen so I never hit "O", but it is worth a try. I have found that if I start at the feet and go backwards across ground I tend to find that G spot ! And it seems as if the "Advanced" and "proto" injectors actually lock on better than the standard.
RKKR The Southern Legion RISE of LEGION 21	Posted - 2013.05.16 07:05:00 - [20] - Quote Thanks for sharing this, going to test this later. Zaria already started a thread in the Technical support/Bugs section about this issue: https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=74868&find=unread

That's part of the problem, IMHO. I agree, and it's been mentioned (and acknowledged by the devs with a lot of good suggestions being listened to) in another thread I think I saw you in. My point was that people can be on the map screen AND still waiting for a revive.
Calamity Jane II Pink Fluffy Bounty Hunterz Noir. Mercenary Group 80	Posted - 2013.05.16 07:43:00 - [22] - Quote Bump, as a fellow logibro now this helps me a ton for on the fly stabbings :) appreciate it!
Cybus Trama'dol EYE Security Task Force and Resources Acquisition 45	Posted - 2013.05.16 08:42:00 - [23] - Quote +1 Bump
I-Shayz-I ZionTCD Unclaimed. 232	Posted - 2013.05.16 08:51:00 - [24] - Quote ALSO: Switch to your Repair tool as you go for the revive, and it will automatically switch back to the repair tool after stabbing them. Probably the most useful thing about their change to the revive system.
DeadlyAztec11 One-Armed Bandits Heretic Initiative 265	Posted - 2013.05.16 09:18:00 - [25] - Quote Good looks
Robert JD Niewiadomski NULLIMPEX INC 121	Posted - 2013.05.16 09:29:00 - [26] - Quote Thanx for the tips
Dusty Nelson The Unholy Legion Of DarkStar DARKSTAR ARMY 4	Posted - 2013.05.16 09:44:00 - [27] - Quote +1 Bumping. Because Logibro's of all kinds needs to see this and everyone on the battlefield rely's on everyone with a Nanite Injector Logibro's or otherwise to save their ass, Dropsuit, Re-spawning if possible. Especially when someone is carrying a Nanite Injector that may or may not work.
Gilbatron Free-Space-Ranger Nulli Secunda 87	Posted - 2013.05.16 10:26:00 - [28] - Quote Good thing I can't even pull out the injector reliably with kb/m...
Spunty Dead Six Initiative Lokun Listamenn 24	Posted - 2013.05.17 10:32:00 - [29] - Quote Thank you sir. 'Cause of these tips I went from a success rate of about 3/10 to 8/10. Seriously thank you. My injectors do things now :D
