This has already been discussed. If it doesn't alter the medic's healing playstyle, it's not worth having.

There is so much healing power, that the medic does not have to wait for anything to recharge; it will always have something to heal with and constantly be able to flawlessly keep the team alive. Perhaps a tad too good at his job.

TWO SHOTGUNS OR OR SHOTGUN FOR DEMOLITION

or for the Support specialist

[C_Gibby]

loris, give me a good reason for the demo to have a shotgun.

[CandleJack]

That was.... random.

I don't think it's really ontopic either.

That's a nice airsoft gun you have there. Tell me, do you think it is appropriate to have the ammo come in bags of 1000 BBs or 5000 BBs?

The alternative is frustrating and painful for everyone involved. Healing classes should always have the lowest skill ceiling.

Always.

Hallways.

I don't personally want that monstrosity in the game.

Healing: To restore to health or soundness; cure
Class: A set, collection, group, or configuration containing members regarded as having certain attributes or traits in common
Should: Used to express obligation or duty
Always: At all times; invariably
Have: To be in possession of
The: Used before singular or plural nouns and noun phrases that denote particular, specified persons or things
Lowest: in the lowest position; nearest the ground
Skill: an ability that has been acquired by training
Ceiling: An upper limit, especially as set by regulation

Next time I'll draw you a picture in Mspaint. I'll even make it monochrome so your teensy little hormones don't get all anxious and flood your brain with smoke.

I always wondered how you would define the word "the"... So tricky... Nicely done, but perhaps a little harsh. I f i was an English teacher, i would give your post a like, but as an online passifist, i would give it a dislike... I'll just stick to reading and not liking /dislikng posts.

I don't like the diea of having the shotgun suggested before, mainly for the reason that it was suggested for demo as well, which doesn't make much sense in any way..

I have never in my 20 years of life heard this word in this context.
No need to act like such a tool either.

Im sure that answered his question

[Pendragon]

I'd defiantly like something like this for the medic. The Mp7 really isn't much of a viable defensive weapon, yes the medic is suppose to be healing his team mates but thats not always possible, when theres X amount of specimens between you and the dying teammate.

In my opinion the shotgun should be a tiny bit stronger then the current medic based weapon, but still has the ability to rip through a small mob/clear a path to get to. But not really be a threat to the larger specimens.

I agree with Sammers on this one. You shoulda said limit, tbh. And lul 4-pointer. Now you'll see that we're a lot different to the Steam forums, so keep it civil.

Sorry, do you mean "And knowledge is power"?

Alternativly, "And knowing is half the battle."

Mutation of the original idea with a Texan drawl.

Can't find the other, it's an old PSA thing.

Debatable

I never plan to use it, because I think it sounds ridiculous.
