invalid Medic paint idea?

[Nicola_M 1,563]

I spend a lot of time as healer at flags on Lost Temple.

Would be handy to have a medic paint or similar, so team members know where to come for healing.

At the moment I have to use the "In Love" paint so I stand out, but it would be nice to actually have something with a red cross or similar on it.

 

Any thoughts?

Um its not needed.

waste of time coming back to the flag to get health you should prbably go around the map healing people

[D.a.n.t.e 475]

Good idea. It could be a light green paint for 250 to 500 crystals. 

 

I would also like a No Kill paint: white with a red No Signs (circle with a diagonal line through it running from top left to bottom right) for 1k crystals.

Was thinking mostly of the guys at the far end of the ramp, and also those at the flag. Currently they've got to spot the Isida in the scrum, but a different paint for medics would help them spot you.

Going round the map doesn't always help, as you often get killed before you reach anyone in need.

I like that.  Killing healers should be a penalty if they are just healing and not roaming the map killing.

The main reason players kill healers is not to defend themselves, but to make the enemy team weaker and decrease their effectiveness. The enemy team sometimes almost becomes invincible unless you go ahead and focus on the healers first. So, I think your post is a bad idea.

Like a Red Cross paint? Good idea though you'll be targetted

[Skills.n.Girls 767]

If I was a healer, I would rather use some camouflage, not the colors that even enemies can spot and know who to kill first (as everyone first kills the healers). This is unnecessary.

He/she can also wear the orange or white paint and be more visible, and like you said, the con will be that enemies can easily see him/her too.

 

But a special paint or paints for healers could be nice, maybe make a tank look like an ambulance. That could signal team mates that he/she'll be healing, as opposed to other Isidas that like to go killing. That way maybe team mates can share flags with them if he/she is a good healer.

This isn't a like the two World War's where killing the 'medic' was wrong. This is a 3D Tank shooter with fast paced action. If there was a penalty for killing Isidas how would you win if both teams had nothing but Isidas? 

 

 

I don't mind the idea of a paint but I think 'stickers' would be a better alternative and there could be other cool designs as well.

1 question: why? For that reason, make a paint for flag carriers, druggers, buyers (kinda already done tho), every turret+every hull too. Seems pointless and non-Isidas could use that paint, which defeats the purpose.

[Mario3108 462]

There are better ways to let them know you are a healer, I guess.

[Skills.n.Girls 767]

Maybe you could win some paints by earning the achievements - "Life-Giver" achievement (Earn 500 000 XP with Isida) = Medic paint or "Ice Age" achievement (Earn 500 000 XP with Freeze) = Frozen paint.

 

But I think that idea already exists.

[Nicola_M 1,563]

Just a simple camouflage with a coloured cross or patch was what I had in mind.

If no one else needs/wants it, you don't have to use it.

At the moment you have to go full-on technicolour and the enemy can see you from the other side of the map.  Something a bit less intense, but lets teammates nearby know what you are would be nice.

Other turrets don't heal and it's okay if other turrets use the healer paints. You can use Fire with the same paint as the enemy's healer is using, that will be fun.

How about like this?

Where's the cross, I don't see it? :lol:

Crosses don't go with Tanki, because many here have other religions and since the cross represents only the Christian religion it is not used.

A cross that is red isn't anything to do with any religion, but is widely accepted as the motto of medics - even in places that are not Christian.

 how would you win if both teams had nothing but Isidas? 

Please dont give the devs any ideas...

Not completed though, since you can't buy the paint. Not that this is necessary anyway, since you go to an Isida because you see an Isida turret regardless of what paint they're using, so having a special "healer" paint on the Isida won't change anything.

[a7x_Pedro48 13,999]

Maybe not a paint.

 

But if you use Isida in team battle, you would have a bubble on top of your tank, with a red cross in a white circle, visible from anywhere in the map, only for the team. So, if you need medic, you could easily find him of them.

[u812ic 1,629]

As an Isida user, I don't like this idea. From afar, it's usually hard to tell what the turret is, unless the Isida is in the process of healing. But put a special paint on an Isida is worse than a Bullseye target in red blinking lights. I usually wear Invader or Alien paint or occasionally Zebra. Yeah, I stand out a bit, but at least it's not white with a red cross.
