Re: Less Combat, More Medic: Healing Weapons


I think if we had healing weapons, medics would become a bit too much, instead of a medic who has to come to you to apply aid. You might even have someone healing you from across a corridor or something.

I think a nice solve around way of it, is to copy a style from The Killing Floor. In that game, medics could get some weapons called "medic guns", which were just guns but had a dart launcher on it to inject allies with medical treatment at range.


Basically, imagine is a single medical treatment were fired like an underbarrel grenade. Single shot, slow firing, low ammo count. A sort of bonus for medics rather than changing the game.
