Killzone 3 Medic Class Hints and Tips...Hopefully

RespawnAction: "The Medic class in Killzone 3 appears to be one of the most underrated classes in the game, as most of the community plays as the Marksman and Infiltration classes. However, I feel the Medic class is vital for a team that plans on actually winning the match."

Fellow medic here =) I hate how everyone wants to be the infiltrator and marksmen. The thing is the medic isnt as useful as in lets say.. BAD COMPANY 2. Man that game got the medic right.

They need to make the respawn time longer because I find people dont like waiting for us medics. Whatever happened to the medic marker from KZ2?? Another reason they spawn is they dont know where the hell the medic is! Either more spawn time or way longer range to the medic

respawnaction5555d ago

Correct! Downed teammates need an indication on the map on exactly who is a medic and WHERE they are. I hate getting to teammates at a second too late just b/c they gave up waiting. :/

ChineseDemocracy5555d ago

I find the game's actually alot more fun when the classes are evenly distributed among the team. Killzone is one of the only games where kills are a secondary objective for me; the way to rack up points is to support your team and secure those objectives!

ShadowArchangel5555d ago (Edited 5555d ago )

I find we are better at our role!

When we revive, people get higher health, more ammo and more grenades.

I revive key members, if there's a firefight and I see a tactician/engineer down and a marksmen, I'll revive the tactician/engineer.

People aren't used to being revive.

Edit: I just saw the video. I play so diferently as medic lol I actually act like an assault class. I go in, get kills, go out and get objectives. Follow my squad around when I see them, but when they begin stalling, I go in. Everyone has their playstyle I imagine :D

Spitfire_Riggz5555d ago (Edited 5555d ago )

You know whats amazing? Having a fully upgraded revive where you give higher health more grenades and full ammo... AND REVIVING YOURSELF.

Nothing better than going on a killing spree dying, getting back up better than before and on to another spree.

nightmarex1215555d ago

Lol yeah my friend always play the medic and he does the exact same thing as you.

Pillage055555d ago

the respawn time should increase for sure, imo. BUUUUTTT I completely disagree about the range thing. Short range keeps me from getting respawned by idiot medics who want to respawn me right in front of 10 enemies firing like crazy. I hated medics in KZ2 cause of that.

I think a 10 second respawn again would do the game some good though.

Spitfire_Riggz5555d ago

Im saying if not time range. So you can get a guy before he spawns

CaptainGreece5555d ago

Where are all my engineer peeps?

lsujester5555d ago

Here's one. I am a ammo crate building beast.

UnSelf5555d ago

i was the MEDIC MASTERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR in KZ2. best class ever

then KZ3 dropped and they NERFED MY FREAKIN ASSAULT RIFLEEEEEEE!!!

after that the medic class died and i died a lil inside

Pillage055555d ago

@unself
The medic assault rifle isn't terrible. The thing is more of a sniper rifle now though lol. I recommend dual primary weapons with the lmg for general use and the assault for long distance. Or swap the smg with the lmg if you're not a fan.

ShadowArchangel5555d ago

Yeah. I love the Rifle. it's what I use, love the accuracy nonscoped and scoped.

VenomProject5555d ago

You medics need to get together and procreate. There's too few of you heroes.

BrianG5555d ago

Agreed, thats why I try to play medic in KZ3.

I was just playing some Killzone 2 earlier today online, medics are always there and reviving, I miss that. Also miss the icon above a medics head when you get downed.

holdmyown835555d ago

So is there a way to use 2 primary weapons?

Prophet1125555d ago (Edited 5555d ago )

You unlock the ability once you've reached a certain rank. I think its Captain I.

denero15555d ago

lol i remember getting revived my first thought "omg there is another medic" it shocked me i never experienced getting healed lol

piroh539d ago

There's too many games to choose from

No Metal geat solid 1,2,3,4?
No Resident evil?
No Silent hill?
No Midnight club 3?
No NfS Underground 2?
No Final Fantasy?
No Burnout 3?
No Dragon quest 8?
No Days gone?
No Ace combat?
No Tekken/Soul calibur?......
just from the top of my head

PS1 era was full of great RPGs, PS2 was racing generation i would pick top 200 and even that would be just a fraction.

FinalFantasyFanatic538d ago

30 is way too low over the entire history of Playstation, I just wouldn't be able to narrow it down that much, I would pick 100 at least.

Storm23538d ago

Yeah...really odd list. I get that it is personal preference and I love most of the games listed, but my list would definitely be different. I agree though, it would be incredibly difficult to come up with just 30.

lockedongamer1538d ago (Edited 538d ago )

I only picked first-party titles. Otherwise, I agree!

EDIT: Except for Days Gone, I don't get the love for it but you do you!

Chocoburger529d ago

I didn't like Days Gone either, it doesn't deserve to be on any best of list.

Up there with the top tier in the industry. Love Guerrilla Games - Horizon Burning Shores is simply STUNNING.

1Victor1104d ago

Can’t wait for their next franchise

SullysCigar1104d ago

Same. They nailed it with Horizon. The trouble is I also want a new Killzone! Can't I just have it all?!

jznrpg1104d ago

I’m with you I want Horizon 3 , Killzone and new IPs

badz1491104d ago

I have yet to play Burning Shores as I just started Forbidden West (bought at launch, just unwrapped last weekend LOL) and playing on PS5.

man...I still can't believe the graphics especially now I'm playing it on my LG OLED. that graphics and with stable performance backing it up, GG really is the master of their craft!

Vengeance11381104d ago

32.7M sales in the Horizon franchise! With 8.4M coming from Forbidden West alone! Truly a hugely successful game and franchise as a whole. Looking forward to Horizon III

Shane Kim1104d ago

That's kind of a huge drop though. It's only been two games.

VersusDMC1104d ago

One year after realease HZD sold 7.6 million.

https://www.noobfeed.com/ne...

So not a drop off.

Unless you're saying a HFW should have sold as much now as HZD sold in 5 years?

Vengeance11381104d ago

It's been 3 games, this includes Call of the Mountain. Also no, its a great improvement over HZD.

solideagle1104d ago

lol you are comparing:

HZD: 28 February 2017 - May 2023 (6 years+)

HFW: 18 February 2022 - May 2023 (1 year+)

We will see if it surpass original number.

Phoenix761104d ago

@shane, 2 full main games, 2 DLC add ons, 1 VR spin off game, oh and a an official LEGO set.
Not too bad for an ip that's only been on market for 6 years

REDGUM1104d ago

Wow, very impressive. I didn't know the numbers were so high for Forbidden West. Still playing through it myself

thesoftware7301104d ago (Edited 1104d ago )

Yooo, when I first saw that Killzone 1 footage at E3, my friends my brothers and I were like, Holy shit! When it came out, it didn't look exactly like it, but we sunk so many hours into 1 & 2.

I even liked Killzone: SF, it was a spectacle to look at, and even today it looks good. I hope they make a new one. Can you imagine how that will look, and they can get some modern FPS pointers from Bungie.

blacktiger1104d ago

thank you fps lover, I'm with you

talocaca1104d ago

Such a wonderful studio. They deserve all their success.

The Decima Engine is absolute 🔥 I'm just mad they have abandoned Killzone.

OzzY-waZZy1104d ago (Edited 1104d ago )

Kinda wish they move on from Horizon tbh.

lukasmain1104d ago

They are probably working on mutiple projects. One of them is Horizon 3, but another is a multiplaer game and probably somehting else.

Imalwaysright1104d ago

There were rumours that they were working on a Socom reboot.

Killzone 3 is playable with mouse & keyboard on PC via RPCS3 & KAMI

Still looks secure 2 gens later... one of my favorite ps3 moments. With 3D and move the game is on another level

MadLad1855d ago

PC almost always ends up the best place to play games, even if it takes a while.

What would you rather play decades down the line? A game at a fixed resolution and frame, considering you have a working disc, and the hardware?
Or run it on an emulator that can update the experience all around, and let you use whatever control input you prefer?

If you insist on the former, it's really only for the sake of nostalgia.

Applejack1855d ago

I disagree. The main draw for consoles has always be the simplicity of just putting the disc in / downloading it and playing without worrying about anything else. The average person just wouldn’t want to deal with emulation even though it’s very important for preservation.

Terry_B1855d ago

Even emulators are super simple to use.

jukins1855d ago

Youre getting flak because people on here thibk of themselves as pc wizards. But honestly most poeple try and go get emulators and romz they end up with malware.. yes theyre "easy" if you know the basics but alot of people dont. That said the fact that its taken nearly 20 years to get a sustantially better experience for ps3 games than on its native system shows the complexity of getting bc to work. Sony, if they have any intention, should just invest in a vastly better psnow experience.

1855d ago
Vegamyster1855d ago

jukins

Most people who emulate don't get malware, you'd have to be going to some weird sites for that to happen, heck years ago people were getting sketchier ad's resulting in malware warning on this site if you didn't have a ad-blocker lol.

SinkingSage1855d ago

Can't get malware if you legally dump your own games, which you should.

Rachel_Alucard1855d ago (Edited 1855d ago )

That's fine if that's the main draw, but it doesn't make it a better experience, just a preference. Having the freedom to do the things you can do on PC is what the appeal of PC is. Buying a game on PC means you never have to worry about the console makers just deciding the next hardware shouldn't support the generation anymore, which means everything you bought is stuck on that hardware instead of moving up with everything else. Nintendo uses this tactic to keep reselling the same games over and over at inflated prices. Sony cut all previous gens off the PS4 and sold it back to people in a poor attempt with PSnow. While the PS5 supports PS4 games, that may not be the case in the next gen after this. No to mention shutting off all the previous stores and updates completely. Even MS stopped making new BC titles at some point, so now there's a big list with 17 pages of titles that are not playable on Xbone and are just trapped on older gen. That's not a problem on PC, the reverse happens where you only have to worry if your hardware can play the newest releases at ultra with no issue.

AzubuFrost1855d ago

Shhh don't say that aloud! You're going to trigger a lot of console infidels here.

Shane Kim1855d ago

I rather play it when it's available then wait 10 years.

MadLad1854d ago

Did you purposely miss the entire point of my post?

Inverno1855d ago

Well that's the beauty of still owning a retro console tho. Those who usually complain about emulation are just being blindly loyal to a company. Emulation is great for many reason, but if I still owned the console then I disagree nothing beats plugging it back in and going down a nostalgia trip

RevXM1855d ago

The RPCS3 devs are doing great work. And Kami works nicely with it too it seems.
Very neat.

Magatsuhi1855d ago

Been playing mgo on pc with mouse. It's not perfect but I can make it work.

Binarycode1855d ago

2 is the better game.

A Remake would be good. 60fps 2-4k

Omar3li1855d ago

60fps is peasant for FPS games now
