Reviews for TF2 Tutorial - Medic

[FattyWhale]

(title in work)

A very basic tutorial if you ask me. I have over 130 hours logged playing as medic, and I honestly can't believe you have more than 10 with the content of this tutorial. You don't go over anything really important, like WHEN and WHY to uber, when to pull out your bonesaw, how to stay alive...basic things you learn when playing medic for so long. Also, demo man is always better than heavy to taking sentries, even if there are 3+ because heavies most certainly DO fly, and when they do they are useless. Secondly, you should never uber a spy, that is just the dumbest thing I've ever heard, because it will most likely just alert the other team that there is an uber behind them. Same thing with ubering an engineer. In pub games it's a big no-no. Even in a clan match or scrimmage I would say no, unless he is your absolute last chance to defend a point or with the game.

This is my tactics that I use, and I have 60 hours played as medic and I am the best medic in my clan. If you dont like my tactics, write your own tut. :|

Its a pretty bare tute

This tute will get you started, no doubt, but a good run on a server as medic and you'll no doubt already understand all of this anyway.

Aside from the obvious (when to uber) you missed some serious points on medic, and believe me, coming from almost exclusively playing medic you've missed the most important point - who to heal, how much, and when.

For instance - juggling whether its more efficient to follow someone straight into the line of fire or staying back and healing everyone who comes your way. Judging the situations where it can be advantageous to keep a team member back (soldier or demo mainly) to build ubers faster (since damaged allies build your uber quicker and rockets/nades can deal said damage easily) etc.

Newbies comin here lookin for a tute, go play the game for a bit, you'll pick up waaaaay more in the first half hour.

Mmm

Doesn't really take a genius to figure out medics heal, and due to my opinion that TF2 is amazingly boring and has been since release (I played beta upto release and loved it, but now CoD4 craps all over it) this isn't all that helpful really, too simple, too obvious and not really needed.

Bun-Lord responds:

Just trying to help noobs and give some tactics people don't understand. :)

well....

I played TF2 for a long time and I must say your tutorial doesn't say anything really valuable. I mean, most of what you've said is very basic and not really refined, and you can acually have much better guides on other sites. Also, it's much better to show an actual in-game video so that newbies really understand what they must do. I'm not gonna say that I'm a top quality player,and the medic isn't the class I've played the most but I see myself at knowing a lot in strategies
and personally, if you are the best medic in your clan, boy do I not want to see your peers (sorry).

Ah well, don't discourage yourself ;D, plenty of more opportunities for doing games and anims about tf2, its just not really as useful to do one about tutorials.
