    does it make any sense?

    Does it make any sense that you are basically carrying a med-kit for your opponents use upon your own death? You would think that if you have something like that on your person, right before you die would be an optimal time for its use. This is only a very small thing that's bugging me, and over all I am enjoying the game. I can foresee a definite need for becoming very familiar with heavy and medium armor, since the medium feels like T2 light and heavy feels like T2 medium, I am guessing those two will be very popular.

    Heavy feels like T1 Heavy, same goes for the rest.

    I love it.

    Maybe once I get better and actually kill more people, then I will feel differently about the medkit, since it's a huge advantage to the more skilled players. The more people you kill, the more medkits you pick up, the longer you live, the more people you kill, and the circle goes on...

    It seems logical that unused medkits would drop to the ground. I would have an issue with it if it always drops a medkit. It should only drop them if the dead person had one on his/her person at the time of death.

    The problem is you can't use your medkit like in T2, you can only get the health boost once you grab one from a dead player on the ground.

    I realize that this is going to sound borderline crazy since we are talking about a game, but when your in the service, they used to issue you 782 gear (This is gear that you carried on your body when going into the field for training or combat, ie. canteen, magazines, and first aid kit). So, in real life you carried your own first aid kit into battle.
    If you were wounded the corpsman would use that first aid kit to help patch you up until they could medi-vac you back to the rear. You would never patch up yur buddy with your own kit because that was solely for you.

    Obviously if your were dead that first aid kit would still be on your body, but like Pixel said you would think if your about to die you would be able to use it and save yourself???

    If you are about to die, go ahead and use it. I don't want the game automatically doing it for you...

    I think its great the way u can roam around shooting down opponents and get a med pack and ammo refresh as u go.

    Can even use your own med pack via keymap? I think its simple a kill bonus and nothing more.

    The Medium armor mobility kicks butt tho i wish u could have 4 weapons like u could in t2.
