Make friends with a medic

I am pretty sure you know this already but if you are Heavy Weapons guy make friends with a Medic. Always stand between him and the shooter. He can keep you alive and you can keep him alive. Also if you guys live long enough the medic can do his special protection.

Yes, It is extremely important that a heavy know that his medic is someone whom he is responsible for, so yes whether its map to map, or if you need me to come into map as medic (Im not bad, apparently), medics are an important part of any team.

I just don't see how playing a medic is any fun compared to other roles like a scout.

I agree ZoSo, I find medic extremely boring in this edition.  No conc jumping, no flag rushing, no taking down enemy sentries with your nail gun, no infecting enemies to die a slow death.

You just follow some fat guy around and right click every once in a while.

And to make matters worse, it seems like Heavies are incredibly slow/useless without a medic attached.

Well I was able to stay alive for awhile with my Heavy with out a medic.  I just had to make sure I aimed at the heads. Also $200 bullets run out fast.  But a medic is boring in my own opinion. But its a class that we need.

LOL is that Berry White playing in the background?

Medic is a gimp class, sure. But it's necessary. If you're going to have the more damaging classes, you've gotta have a medic to keep them alive. Other classes may have more fun, but a medic can make all the difference for the win.

And a good medic can do some damage on his own, as well. Last night I kept getting dominated [the game literally told me he was dominating me] by a medic. Practice with that needle gun, buddies. Make sure you have an escape route to reload, and just keep pumping the darts into them.

I do think it should have some poison type effect to it, though.

Now with Penny Arcade posted the pic of "Shoot the Medic"  Make sure you are gooooood friends with a medic. Don't want them to bail on you lol.

I'd like to chime in and say that I find the medic extremely fun and NEVER boring.  How can you be bored when literally the entire opposing team wants you dead first? You find really creative ways to stay alive. You have to keep on your toes, watch behind you to make sure a scout or spy isn't about to bash you, not to mention making sure all your team-mates are kept alive, reading the battlefield to know when it's time to Uber...

I could go on, but the Medic really is fun for me.
