Topic Starter	Topic: Some medic questions
CyAne The Afflicted Joined: 11 Jun 2001 Posts: 870	Posted: 09-20-2007 10:49 AM                  I'm trying to be a good medic but I'm having trouble finding the right combo regarding quick acces to the defibrillators, usekey, medpacks and switching back to my weapon fast. Can you tell me what works good for you? (just as a guideline) Is it possible to make a bind were you auto-crouch while reviving? And is there any way to drop those medpacks faster or, let's say, 4 in one drop? Thanks =)

I use the arrow keys and pretty much the same configuration in almost every game. Page down is what I use for health packs, delete for defribrillators. This is my keyboard. Notice the home, end, page down, etc. buttons are in a 3x2 formation.

I think I found a good combo, but what's weird is that I have to actually look down to find some keys. Seven years of Q3, hitting keys blind and now all of a sudden I have to look?! My online fps was fluxing around 60. But I thought it was locked at 30? I didn't unlock it yet or anything :S

I didn't unlock it yet or anything :S It was only locked at 30 for the initial open beta. I think the focus of the revive hitbox is torso center and is small compared to ET. Though vanilla et's is immense and etpro's, which most mods use, pretty big.
