Should medics have more health than others?

[HaTeMe]

Just today I was playing a 6 man game on Hard foundry, everyone else were packed in one team at the edge of the map while 1 lonesome medic went solo. He managed to hold off the patriarch for like 3 minutes alone due his speed and armor -_-. 3 minutes might not sound like much but if youd face the patty with a firebug youd be dead in 3 seconds.

So yea but no, while more health for the medic sounds like a good idea it would make the perk way too strong.

Medics are plenty strong, just not damage-wise strong. Zerkers should be the ones getting the health bonus. IMO, give them health bonus and take away speed bonus to compensate (speed and health are DIRECTLY connected - getting more than 100 hp makes you run faster)

^ yes

btw, there is no individual "victory" in a co-op game like KF, which is why the score system needs tweeking or removal.

i realize that lol
i just got first place is what im trying to say. despite the fact that i was a medic and was playing with a bunch of 5+ SS

Level 5 or 6 medic on any difficulty with a xbow makes the patriarch laughable.

im sick of everyone trying to make KF as easy as possible.

Amen. They can go to Left 4 Dead if they want to never die, even when mauled by a flung car.

I have been surrounded by an entire room of clots, gorefasts and bloats all simultaneously grabbing me, slashing me and puking on me. i killed them all with an mp7 and still had 60 health left.

medics do not need more health.

The OP has already given up the thread AND everyone's in agreement. What's the point of repeating the same statement over and over? Reinforcing your superiority?

Every time all people say it, BUT if they do it, they must balanced the game.
I think its a great idea but as all new post about new ideas, just do the game harder when their is a thing which do it easier.

thats why i think, the patriarch must appears with zeds like 2 scrake, 2 fp or the patriarch direct at the end of the 10th wave

Nope. Medics are medics, not a tanks. They have armor bonus, speed bonus, and a very fast med syringe recharge, so they can heal themselves very fast. That's enough.

Personally, I think Zerker should have more health.
