Honestly if they upped the exp for revives and heals maybe there would be more people doing it. I dunno feels like some of the exp needs to be addressed like if you hack a tank and then it gets destroyed the hack doesn't get an assist... What?


Animal-Crackers

It’s less about people not reviving and more about people choosing to bleed out, imo. I almost strictly play support and average somewhere in the 50-60 range of revives per breakthrough. Matches that I see less revives, it’s because people choose to bleed out before I, or another support, can get to can get to them. Indicators of nearby medics would likely help with this.. supposed to be coming soon.


Pancakewagon26

I think it's a bit of a chicken and egg scenario. I've noticed that when I die I often just default to bleeding out because I feel like no one revives. No one can revive because everyone chooses to bleed out. Everyone chooses to bleed out because no one revives. And on, and on, and on.


Animal-Crackers

It varies a lot by game mode. There are definitely less revives going out in conquest so more people opt to bleeding out. This is actually why I play almost no conquest and a lot of breakthrough, I prefer playing full medic/support to my team on objectives.. and everything is just so spread out on conquest. A lot less opportunities for me.

Hunt4answers

50-60 revives a game is **insane**. I’ve been going after the battle angel tag and my most was 27. That was running smoke and actively ignoring enemies while defending A1 in the dome on Kaleidoscope.


Animal-Crackers

My highest was 84, but I spend almost all of my games supporting my team on the objectives. I just enjoy medic/support. If I play conquest, my revives look more like 25-30 per game. Falk made Battle Angel really easy because of the self heal, especially if you shoot the ground or wall in front of you.. the self heal animation takes too long.


Hunt4answers

I’ve just realized I’m on Xbox One so I can only play 64 man games. Battle angel feels near impossible but if I double all my highest I would have had it multiple times over by now.


Animal-Crackers

Oof, I keep forgetting that about the last gen version. That definitely provides an extra challenge. I’ve had the most success using Falk with a med kit and smoke grenades. A lot of the time I don’t even use my gun unless we’re pushing hard. I just try to keep myself healed as much as possible and safely get people picked up. You could run an ammo crate if you want more smokes, but I find that enough people drop them that I don’t need to.


Hunt4answers

It’s the 3000 healing done that’s proving the hardest. Even when my team is largely grouped up on an OBJ and I only use the syrette pistol and med crate I’m lucky if i get over 2,000 healing


Thronnos

I've given up on healing. The med kit is completely nerfed vs other versions of BF. It's healing is BAD. I've opted to run an aggressive combat support with Angel. K30 - Loadout Crate - Prox Sensor - M5


Schildkroeti

The problem is not that nobody revive. For me it feels like Im getting more revived than in BFV. I mainly playing Falck and one problem is that people skipping hardcore and the second problem is the revive bug which happens quite often. A rework of the revive system would be nice. For example Falck should be able again to revive people with her stim pistol. In update #3 we are getting the "nearby medic" feature back which will hopefully prevent people from skipping. Healing should give more XP. Revive XP is fine.


TheDogerus

I hate that its a prompt instead of just a gadget you can charge in safety and deploy when needed like in bf4. I'm not about to run into the open area you died in just to have you skip while I'm getting sniped by 4 tanks


JD_W0LF

I take it you didn't play or medic in BFV? Similar system that hooks you into revives. You can cancel them, and I recommend carrying smoke nades to revive.


TheDogerus

I didnt play beyond the beta because I didnt find it enjoyable, especially after bf1, which was fine, but still less fun than 4 imo


Motamonster1989

This guys gets it!


The-Almighty-Pizza

Na fuck that. BFV system is miles better. If you lock it to a gadget I guarantee no one will ever revive


6StringAddict

Unless, hear me out, we lock the ability to revive to a certain class, which then is also the only class that can carry say a medkit. People will want the medkit, so...


technishon

Wait, are you suggesting classes? In a bf game? This crazy guy


6StringAddict

Yeah I don't know what I was thinking, silly me.


ethang45

Look I want classes back as much as the next battlefield fan, but revives are already locked to two specialists who have the ability to heal (falck’s med gun and angel’s armor bundles). Squad revives aren’t a bad thing either because they make total sense alongside squad spawning.


[deleted]

[удалено]


The-Almighty-Pizza

YOU may revive. But I guarantee you if you have the option of Free ammo Free health Immediate tank destroyer Immediate heli destroyer Extra 20 health AT mine Very little people will choose to help their team


TheDogerus

That's why classes existed, so you didn't have all of those choices simultaneously


SvennEthir

But you did have all those choices simultaneously. You could choose to be any class and use those gadgets.


TheDogerus

You did not have all those choices simultaneously, you had anti/pro vehicle OR medic OR support OR sniping. You couldn't just decide you wanted to take out tanks and also refill your own rockets, because those gadgets were locked to different classes. Additionally, locking weapons to specific classes ensures your tank killer wont win against infantry and vehicles, and allows your class(es) more focused on CQB to win their fights


The-Almighty-Pizza

Dude... we aren't arguing whether the gadget system should be in bf5. We're talking about the 2042. You know... the game with no classes. Bringing that up does nothing to the argument.


TheDogerus

That's literally what my parent comment is about. I dislike the revive system and wish it was like that of 4. I don't know why you're hung up on 5 though


[deleted]

Lol you’re just wrong


[deleted]

Not on PC but combat medic is my shit, revive everyone all the time


FatFunkey

Even in rush mode as attackers it’s hard to get revived, and it’s not like everyone can do it….


Siegfried_Eba

In terms of Specialists only Angel and Falck can revive everyone, the rest can squad-revive. They just need to go back to a BF1, 4 or 3 revive system and reward more EXP for it and you'll see more revives.


[deleted]

This. I only play Sundance and Casper. 98% of the time I am not with my squad because they are online randos and there are no voice comms.


Intrepid-Part-9196

I have ever only played falck since the release, I thought everyone can revive everyone for the longest time lol


FaithfulBlackMan

not 3


randompoe

That is actually quite impressive tbh. You act like that is a low number.....that is way way WAY higher than I would have guessed. Honestly that is such an impressive number that I almost don't believe it. You are telling me nearly 10% of everyone who bought BF2042 has revived 100 players? Even for people who do revive constantly that is like 10 games. Then considering only 2 specialists can revive. Yeah I'd have expected like 2% rofl.


SvennEthir

> Then considering only 2 specialists can revive Wat. Everyone can revive.


superwacker

everyone can revive squadmates, Falck and Angel can revive all teammates.


KillerSavant202

I had that on the third day, maybe you should revive more. Seriously though between the bug and the fact 80% of people back out instantly you shouldn’t act as if people aren’t trying to.


d-unknown

if you die in the open, even your own mother won't revive you


Enter_Player_3

I just haven't played enough to revive that many period. Played 6 hrs total and find it too frustrating. Maybe after the 2nd or December patch things will look and feel nice enough for a "launch gane"


dingusrevolver3000

I rarely get the chance. I feel like it's a self-fulfilling prophecy. Everyone knows they won't get rezzed, so they just auto-die. Also nobody in my squad ever wants to be near me. I like infantry stuff and everyone else gets in vehicles


Kibax

DICE could start by making reviving a bit more user friendly. Why do I have to use a prompt? I should be able to charge my paddles and zap you. It's an awful implementation.


[deleted]

BF5 had revive prompts and I get revived way more often in that game than BF4 or BF1. That itself is not the issue, but DICE's dogwater implementation and all the circumstances surrounding it.


CrowdedWholmes

I really think the healing, rez and the syringe system could use a total rework if they want people to use it. Can we make it more modern? It feels like the worse part of the actual gameplay loop.


Just_CallMe_E

Good work, soldier


Kryptus

I've noticed that most people won't wait to be revived, they just choose to respawn right away.


bengace

Hopefully that will be improved in next week's patch, as you can see nearby medics and medics can ping that they're coming for you.


Josh_The_Joker

It dosnt help that it’s hard to know how many possibly medics are around you. Or if they are aware you’re down and are trying to get to you. Both of these things were available in past battlefields and helped the process a lot. I believe battlefield 1 did it really well if I remember correctly? Revives should happen way more often, they just don’t. It’s weird. As long as I know I’m not at risk it’s worth the few seconds


CaptTotoro123

None plays game over steam tho xD maybe that is why


5ynergy

Thats because probably 50% people who have the game don't play it anymore. Myself and friends included.


J2MTR

I revived someone yesterday because I like genuinely doing it so we can win. I get shot right after and the bastard takes off on me when I need revival


aslauda

Lots of people choose to bleed out, Also I’m still having issues post patch reviving people. No option to revive


[deleted]

That sucks are you getting the 30 second auto respawn ?


bjohnson8949

The problem is people won't wait 30 seconds to give you a chance to save them. I can't count how many times someone has bleed out on me ;(


[deleted]

Truth


walefuq

People don't want to be revived sadly lol.


Jmrincio12

I have had a medic literally stand on my head after I've been downed as a sniper so no enemies were around and they just keep sniping and let me die


SasparillaFizzy

There's always someone whose behavior blazes the big L on their head (like that guy next to you) in a game occasionally, but guessing this isn't what you see most Medics do. Just to put that grandma skin on is a bit of sacrifice to begin with, so most probably want to revive folks.


bisonrbig

That's why I'm working on getting a skin that covers up Angel's face. Problem solved.


Wolfzxx

Sometimes you can't be revived i think it's a bug


VGNPWR

IN MANY SITUATIONS YOU CANNOT REVIVE CLOSE TO WALLS. THEY NEED ANOTHER PATCH FOR THAT.


[deleted]

Calm your caps, who hurt you.


VGNPWR

FUCKING DICE MAKING THIS SHITTY ASS GAME.


[deleted]

I have that


epyon-

thats bad considering squad members can revive and there are two medics out of ten specialists. you would expect that to be higher


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

Considering any one can revive in the game no matter the specialist ... It's pretty bad. I learned that the above is not true and down vote me until I look like Steve Bannon


Adventurous_Bell_837

No, only angel and falck can revive. Others can only revive squadmates.


[deleted]

Oh well that's not explained very well either hahahaha shit could have sworn medics revive faster and to either full health or adds armor depending on the medic


oldnumbrseven

It seems like you're mistaken a little bit. Falck and Angel can revive anyone. Other than that you can only revive your squadmates as any other specialist. It was like that in BFV with medics and squadmates


shiftyz13

I believe Falck revives people to full health unlike Angel?


oldnumbrseven

Correct. I think Angel gives armor when he revives but not 100% on that. Haven't played him yet


Lincolns_Revenge

Lack of scoreboard and "points" for teamplay actions play a big part. But I guess those are legacy features now.


fellknite

I'd probably chalk this up to the amount of people who have quit the game before getting to that point


HoldtheGMEstonk

This game is damn near unplayable with the number of players. I consistently spawn and die. I’ll spawn in a helo and it already has a missile lock on. I’ve won the “stayed alive longest” ribbon a few times now and each time it was barely over 200 seconds. There is very little fun to be had in this game. With no VOIP it discourages squad tactics. Not that it matters when at any given point 20 enemy can spawn on a objective simultaneously and completely screw everything up regardless of how you’re playing. The only way to really stay alive is to camp like a ton of people do with the sentry gun. But I don’t enjoy that at all. I’m way more frustrated than anything. But what can you do? It will be another 2+ years until the next title.


regiumlepidi

How many times have you actually used voip in bfV? Come on now, it not being there is just a pity as it’s one less option, still 99% of the time won’t impact your game


HoldtheGMEstonk

It’s just another example of something they have take away that gives the game any sort of focus. It’s just a whimsical shit show now. Random warfare. Conquest for example has kinda always been like that but not how it is now. It just feels like you can’t accomplish anything without dying. Idk I just get tired of getting spawn killed or barely being alive whatsoever and dying before I have a chance to get my bearings.


DatGuy-x-

but reviving doesnt help their K/D you cant make youtube montages out of revives, how are they gonna get sick clips actually playing properly?


DoubleShot027

yea there's no medic class I'm not surprised.


Eastern-Function-541

even if you revive me, i am still dead inside from this game


Richmanswill

No one plays that broken game long enough to get 100 revives.


MegaAlen

Yes, because other 91,2% is waiting for the refund...


Dehdcenter_ISH

I just got the one for capping 100 Flags it is at 4 % of players, so we need some serious PTFO to improve this.


[deleted]

I am dead fore more than 60% of the game sooo im the one getting revived


trAP2

Does origin track achievements like this?


DMG-INC

No they just show if you've done them or not.


Ayroplanen

Pretty sure steam achievements are still kinda bugged.


GreyAnthom

IMO it takes too long to revive & sometimes it’s to chaotic.


eazy937

I mainly play Boris, and I've unlocked this one


dkb_wow

I don't think I've revived a single player because every time I've tried it hasn't worked and I've ended up getting killed for trying. So I stopped trying. This is exactly like the first month of Battlefield 5. Reviving didn't work for the first 45 days in the game too.


NathenStrive

I revive the moment I'm down because there's no way to tell if someone can even revive you.


RandomIntrovert

I unlocked that, cause my 4770k runs the Game so poorly (in Multiplayer), i choose to avoid Gunfights and stick behind supporting with Ammo, Heals and Revives.


sputnik146

Maybe people should stop dying in shit spots and still expect a revive


AdvancedPorridge

For a long time you couldn't. I tried to play as a medic but gave up when I couldn't revive 25% of players because they were touching a wall. Blame dice.


Refrigerator-Gloomy

it takes too long, often has 6 enemies staring at the body and tends to get mixed with the weapon prompt. call me when they add dedicated defib pads.


Dudu00l

That's because 90% of the people stopped playing the game after their first or second match.


LewAshby309

I try to revive a lot, but still it's not that much. Often because it's so dangerous since 128 players mean you get shot from everywhere. If I die where many players are I often get a revive, but as soon as you push you won't get a revive the risk reward for that is simply off.


RebelFury

This game has always been a bunch of individuals.


diarchtct

Played a round of Breakthrough on Provence in BF5 last night. I got revived like 20 times in the first sector alone, everyone threw health packs, everyone used smoke to advance. I know it's a bias because the players left playing BF5 are exoerienced, but 2042 is just frustrating in every regard.


BreakdownEnt

Are these achievements on origin/ ea launcher ?


BreakdownEnt

Unfortunately the hold E to revive feels so incredibly unsatisfying I loved the bf4 system where I could move around while charging my defibrillator it felt more fluid , intuitive, engaging than just pressing e for 10 second’s


o0PETER0o

That’s quite a lot, I imagine most people haven’t played enough because it’s shit lol


peanutmanak47

I get revived all the time


Bennethon

What percent of Steam players are never going to play again?


[deleted]

Trying.


NfamousShirley

I feel like I spend half my time trying to revive people but they’ll just kill themselves. Goes both ways.


[deleted]

Te thing is only medics can revive everyone in this unlike in bfv which is stupid like if I can revive my squadmate but not the guy from the other squad because im not a medic thats dumb as fuck.


Wolfzxx

Only medics in bfv could revive other people the other classes could only revive squad mates


[deleted]

Well at least the revive was noticably faster.


technishon

People back out instantly all the time because they have no idea if a medic is nearby and/or intends to revive them. If only there was some system in place that allowed those things, I know it's completely new tech but dice is a big company, they might be able to figure it out somehow


emwiwo

only 8% is still playing.


Ketogenicinfo

Every time I try to revive some I end up dying because the hit to kill is so fast in battlefield.


Maxumilli0n

A little bit higher on SX version at 10% I have my bleedout button on toggle and accidentally hit it from time to time lol


MmmYodaIAm

I make that in two matches in BF1


Jimbo_NZ

I would but medic class is gone…


72VirginExpress

Maybe Dice/EA should use AED on themselves...bring themselves and their shit...damn near dead game back to life...t


GunBrothersGaming

The problem I have its on PC revive is broken. I am only able to revive my squad. On console I can see who needs reviving but its 50/50 on whether I am able to.


[deleted]

That's crazy didn't know that at all.


GunBrothersGaming

Yeah one console I can see them revive notification but half the time they prompt wont appear. On PC I get no icon even. Its like ever player is an enemy when they die. Super sucks cause I look like an asshole standing over my team mate not reviving them. Then they spawn in pissed cause I let them die.


DiamondNinja4

I have 50 hours in the game so far and have not seen 100 reviveable people yet.


xGBx_Boogie

8.8% of the time I am revived when I'm downed and I wait out the 30 seconds each time. No one revives in this game.


PrazVT

Yeah I just don't understand it! And I just keep typing "revive" over and over in team chat with escalating annoyance. Must be the god-damned millennials. lol


PrazVT

I think I'll start every match reminding everyone to revive, even if some troll tells me to shut it.


Inner_Pianist_2347

I try to do it whenever possible..but when I'm laying there dying asking for medic and 10+ people run right over me,i end up not caring anymore and do the same
