I was playing today and when I tried to revive someone on my team it took me two turns to revive him. I don't know what is going on??? Now medic players are no longer useful if the shock paddles are that crappy...
That happens sometimes. I never knew why. But its definetly not new.
I had that to, it has always been a bug whare you just CANT revive someone lying on the ground. But now there is another strange bug where the paddles doesnt react at all when clicking. BTW there is another thread called "new bugs" where thers a whole list of strange bugs. And not all of them are even in that list.
The large majority of the time you CANNOT revive someone if they are on less than level ground. Even the slightest incline can lead to a soldier's demise. But I personally see little difference in the medic kit. Even if a bug causes you to die once a map without reviving someone, it's not a noticable amount.
Well, the shockpaddles also refuse to recharge 4 out of 15 times.
well there are moments when a soldier is UN-revivable. notice how sometimes it says u were just plain killed, that means u can't be revived...
you can only be revived when C R I T I C A L L Y W O U N D E D.

You cannot revive a player who has been either blown up with a rocket or run over or who died in a mounted turret or vehicle (there might be others)
Also the new defribulators (shock paddles) use the same "ammo" as the medi packs, and so you can run out and have to wait to be able to use it again (see the patch notes)
Check to make sure it was non of these things.

They fucked up the shock paddles when they tried to do that new 'recharge while away' fix. Should have just left them as they were.
I thought i read the shockpaddle uses medpack recharge, so if you have 2-3 medpacks on the ground and go to paddle someone it may not work right away since your overall recharge is drained!?!?! Im not certain about this as Im too lazy to search but I could of swore someone posted about that. This is in the case that the above examples are not in play - the body laying half way through a wall or at a weerd angle. etc.
shock paddles take longer to recharge now and i recommend doing a dive and reviving at ground level from now on as well to insure that you get the revive on the first try.
Yeah theyve gone a bit weird but... no biggie
I always dive to revive cause you dont need to be right over the top of them, it also decreses your target size, plus its quicker. Than kneeling over someone.

I'm sure I've been revived plenty of times when it says Killed and not Critically wounded, as long as you're still in 1st person.
FYI, if the deceased is in the spawn interface ( where they pick their class/spawn ) screen you can't revive them. If they close it you can even after they select a new class, but not while it is open. I use this technique to stop medics who revive you in the line of fire over and over again.
Sam i am Likes green eggs and ham and sam is fucking pissed cuz the patch. sam i am is also happy cuz of the new sniper rifle yea green eggs and ham. i think that DR sues is it
This is by far, the most annoying bug in the patch I have come across... I think taking away the jump and shoot feature has screwed with even the little things in bf2.
OK I LIED... it is a big deal they have completley fucked with the medic kit.BF2Craglyeye wrote:

When i want to throw a med pack it wont throw, then when it does it throws 2 of them instead.
Not only that but at times it freezes, and i cant throw any at all, til i switch to weapons and back again.
It takes a whole 2 seconds to switch between packs and paddles at times.
Then dont get me started on the shock paddles, fuck, 3 goes to try and give someone with a fucking simple zap.
I mean get your fucking hand out of your pants DICE and do something.
most people dont know but after about 4 revives in a row, the paddles have to recharge...theres a bar near the bottom, if it gets too low, there is a delay in recharging..
No one screwed the shock paddles you dirty kid,
Jk. i noticed that it takes a couple times, like sometimes it just dont register
