Add Webbing To Combat Medic Vendor

Post by Steelpoint » 20 Jun 2016, 01:27

Summary: The Combat Medic vendors should all have two pieces of webbing that can be vended for the two Combat Medics.

Benefits: Specialists get webbing, Engineers get webbing, yet Combat Medics don't. All three of these roles vitally need webbing due to the combination of a constrained loadout and a lot of items they need to carry. Forcing Combat Medics to wait and hope that cargo has some webbing for them is in my opinion unacceptable. Being a Combat Medic means your going to be spending a lot of time setting up, thus you'll be among the last to get into the RO's line, which already punishes you into getting the scrapes of attachments let alone webbing.

Details: Spawn two pieces of webbing in the Medic Vendors. Combat Medic only.

+1 times infinity.

Like really though, forcing them to further hurt their chances by making them use an attachment for a webbing really sucks, and inventory space is eternally a problem.

Plus I hate putting ammo in medkits...

i find myself running out of medical supplies very fast after the new update (no, i'm not complaining about it) and this will free up 3 additional slots for me to stock up with. Could not agree more.

Doctors and Medics need all the help they can get. I also suggested allowing syringes to be placed in an 'ear' slot to help with inventory space ((and also because this is a pretty common thing on bay/polaris servers already and it's useful as fuck)).

Sick and tired of hearing requisitions is out of webbing because they handed them all out to standards or something.

I think its about time that medics had more slots for ammo.

[ding] Remember to run in a straight line, and run as long as possible. The second time you fail to complete a lap before the sound, your test is over. The test will begin on the word start. On your mark, get ready, start.

+1 webbing should be an optional piece of equipment to give out by Cargo, not forced to be reserved. medics really need to be given their own webbing. i'd argue specialists and squad leaders should also get their own webbing maybe but medics and engineers, it should be mandatory that they get some webbing from their vendors

Specialists and SLs already get webbing, medics are the only nonstandard marine that doesn't get it.

As stated above. Feels bad when you have to beg the engineers for an extra webbing.

Hey man, Engineers also have fucktons to carry; it's the Specialists who inexplicably get it.

As I said currently Engineers, Specialists and I think even Squad Leaders get some form of webbing, yet the Combat Medic does not.

All four of those roles do need webbing as they're inventory space is a precious commodity, whereas Standards don't need webbing as critically since they only need to carry more magazines.

It is pretty silly that medics have to get stuff from RO and otherwise can't carry ammo at all.

Well as an added side bonus to this suggestion, it would shorten the RO line which would be nice. I, as a medic, still go for attachments though. Gotta get my attachments.

+1, if the RO is sort of expected to give it to them, why not just simplify the process and let them get it themselves? Specialists have it in their vendor yet RO requisitions states that Engineers and Medics have first access to them.
