Re: If you die dont let your anger out on the LEFT mouse button!

There's something I found out early on: sometimes, my medic calls get machine-gunned right out as I die, as if they were a continuation of the bullets I was firing right before going down.

Makes it frustrating when a medic steps over your corpse 10 seconds later and you're out of voicebox ammo to get his attention...

Re: If you die dont let your anger out on the LEFT mouse button!

Basically, I listen for the medic shouts (either in-game or over VOIP) then I look for the little blue x on my minimap. Sometimes looking at the minimap isn't even necessary--Most TGers with mics call out where they went down, and I've found that if I'm nearby, I don't even need the minimap.

Don't revive on purpose, it's not because you are dead that you want to be revived. Watch for the + not the x.

On another hand, I often see a bunch of dudes jumping on a single body to get the point then they all get fragged..

I also have to state that not many assault don't carry the defib, so if you have it, I encourage you to give a shot to the people asking for help as well as healing hurt people who run after you calling: MEDIC! MEDIC!

I don't know about that. I've seen times when there was no X on my screen but somebody was able to be revived. Wonder why?

Probably the same reason why after the revive they walk around with the X floating above them. -.-

X only appears for 3 seconds after you call, you get 2-3 calls I forget which. That is yet another reason to not spam click .
