On some maps picking the fight could be hard, but on some map you can just melt people. People not able to kill people at close range should just learn to play, they owns, at close range…after that it becomes harder..
Only way you can melt people with medic smg is to take them by surprise. In 1v1 with both you and the other shooting medic has no chance.
Try Suomi for medic. It overwhelms CQB. Still effective in medium range if you burst fire it.
And bipoded campers. Well, the game and DICE force players to do so. New Medium Machine Gun mechanic restricts ADS without bipod. And it is just useless without bipod and camping.
Consequently, force-bipod for ADS, the more bipoded campers. It is intended by DICE and it would persist until the end of BFV.
It was not. If you did some research, you would see that the statistics proved (point and kill wise) that assault (SMG + shotgun) was and remained the best class throughout bf1’s complete lifetime. In bf5, it’s still the same thing with support slightly (like an inch) behind with weapons like the KE7. Everybody can revive now plus everybody carries a healing pouch from the get-go (and it’s not hard to find a med crate to resupply your bandages) so the slightly faster reviving speed of the medic and the fact that he can revive ppl from other squads becomes insignificant when you can instead use the best weapons in the game that require the least amount of skill whatsoever plus the best anti vehicle weaponry. Supports, with KE7 are just behind with infinite ammo and mines.
Medic weapons are a total joke, all of them are underpowered especially those with low ROF like the MP40. Other than that the only other balance change I see as neccesary is a nerf the the KE7, it is the current god gun.
I disagree, my biggest score in BFV so far as been as medic, reviving and healing everything in sight as well as a fair amount of kills. All that revival and healing gave me so many requisition points that I called not one but two V1 missiles during a conquest round in Devastation.
.
Medics are the best point generators by far.
the bipods suck in the game so idk what u are talking about. almost as bad as bf4
The thing that bugs me about the medic guns is that they only have short range sights with a max 1.25x scope. All the other classes have at least a 3x scope , so as a medic you can’t see all that far, but non-medic enemies can all see you before you can see them. An addition of a 3x medium scope would make things a little easier, but at the moment playing as a medic I feel like a mole trying to fight eagles.
After trying the MP34 for a couple of rounds, DICE had to have included it to be a meme gun there is no other explanation why this gun is this bad.
I kinda agree that medic weapons suck. Very hard is to get kills is this Suomi-KP weapon. I love this gun because it is part of my country history weapon, but it suck balls.
If you knew how to play medic and/or you knew how to interpret statistics, you’d know BF1 tracker hasn’t proven anything as to what relates as the superior class. Medic class had guns for every range of engagement, plus you could heal yourself. SLRs were the best type of weapons in BF1. Period. BF1 tracker showing how the typical player performs doesn’t say anything about utilizing a class’ full potential.
lol Dude, if you knew you to play medic or how to interpret stats, you’d know BF1 tracker doesn’t say jack about utilizing a class’ full potential. Medic had the best range of weapons in the game, plus you could heal yourself. Hard to believe people still haven’t figured this out and never caught on during BF1’s hayday.
I’m talking about concrete stats, you’re talking about what you THINK. Also, I was a medic main in bf1 and my fav and best weapon was the RSC. While the self heal was strong, the SLRs were definitly on the “harder” side of the spectrum to use (SMGs and LMGs being pure mag dumpers) as you had to time your shots properly if you wanted max RPM while keeping your accuracy, and couldn’t just spam/mag dump. Also, self heals are dandy and all, but it’s rarely what allows somebody to win or lose a firefight (even less so after TTK2.0). You sound quite elitist as if you were better or knew more than everybody else playing the medic class yet you just proved that you THINK you know more, but you actually don’t.
P.S. When somebody starts with “lol”, “dude”, or both, there’s a good chance he doesn’t have any actual/factual proof about the bs he’s trying to say. Look at the forums, it’s a known fact that SMGs are in desperate need of a heavy dose of love. There’s a reason there’s several threads about that.
Ke7 with the right perks and bipod has almost no recoil no spread. Tested it myself. Dude i played a Narvik operation in which my team had to chute and attack. Opponents were camping on sandbags with ke7, and they slaughtered us all three seconds after touching the ground. Half of my team was 0-10 within 3 minutes from the beginning.
Why 80% of playerbase out there uses KE7 then? Because it is crap or because it is widely OP?
As a recon player, I’ll share my SLRs with you medics in exchange for some SMGs.
Well, IDK of I can really call myself much of a recon player anymore though. Assault is just too dominant of a class to not play it most of the time.
As a medic I accept this deal, send me over the the RSC17 and I will send over the MP40 
It’s got so much recoil that it’s not really practical to use in game. Granted, I haven’t upgraded it yet, but the first time I picked it up it was way too difficult to use for anything but point blank range.
I use the M1907 SF on assault a lot which has the same fire rate and kill speed with a lot more manageable recoil and ranged effectiveness. 16 or 21 round capacity is it’s only downside. It’s actually my top weapon on assault. Followed by the G43.
I’ve got a 2.9 KDR as assault and a 1.9 KDR as medic… quite the difference.
The only one pros of having garbage weapons is that no one ever play medic apart few here and there. And you can get incredible healing stats yourself, by having to heal revive anyone in the map.
3 days i’ve installed the game, i have already 8.864 heals. Dont laugh at my other stats, i know they’re garbage
Where did I say Medic was the easiest class? Highlight that portion for me. How the hell does a statistic showing how well the general population fares in each class mean anything to what its capable of? Or do I have to state what most already know, which is that most people are bad to average in battlefield?.You mained medic, used the RSC but obviously never went rambo with it. I could go all day in BF1 killing everything like clock work and I’m only decent, FPS shooters isn’t my full time job. Medic in BFV takes way more caution and thought, and I got my kicked thinking I could do the same things in BF1.

Medic in BFV takes way more caution and thought, and I got my kicked thinking I could do the same things as I did in BF1, I’m still getting my kicked actually. Medic requires superior gunplay now to win most head to head encounters. I’m fine with it. Hey, if they buff SMG’s in BFV that’s fine too I guess, it would have the same effect as the RSC. Make a good gun most people can’t use and make it practically OP in a person who’s decent.
P.S.: Aren’t you the guy who’s always talking about, “skill cannon” this , “skill cannon” that? Welcome to BFV.
