A medic's plea to soldiers in 2fort.

The other night, I was playing 2fort on the TF2F servers, and several times, I would behealing a soldier who would rocket jump onto the sniping battlements, which I'm fine with.  However, these soldiers would often leave me with no one to heal since all my teammates were elsewhere, leaving me a sitting duck.  So please, before you rocket jump onto that platform, make sure your medic has someone else to heal or protect him since it's only a little scary to be a medic and left all alone in front of the enemy's base with only a needle gun and a bonesaw to fight with.

Just go back to the base, or do like me and bonesaw everyone who comes out

but he is right.

I stay in the base, and buff people as they jump off our battlements. Oh, I don't follow them. But some extra health is always an advantage.

Medics aren't completely vunerable in a fight, you have a gun, and the bonesaw which rips shit up pretty hard.  Sounds like you just need to work on your combat skills.

Hate those pacifistic medics, who run for their life as soon as they see a bullet! Unless they have uber, then they tend to uber at your base, hold the uber over the bridge, and when we're there, and the uber is over, the little scared shithole runs his best back to the base to avoid braking a nail!
...and me? I walk confidently into their base, thinking; "I've got a medic with me, so now we can finally do something usefull", and then ->splat

ANNOYING!

Playing as a medic all the time really tends to make you a pacifist. Play as some aggressive classes, such as the scout and you won't feel so helpless. With your health regen, just pop out your syringe gun and go after some nubs.

Medics are not supposed to be wasted in useless charges. After you pop an Uber, you aren't supposed to stay in the middle of the deathtrap. As soon as your buddy dies, you run.

A living medic that hasn't killed someone > a dead medic that has killed someone.
