I noticed early on that the "medic" in PS2 is basically the assault class from BF2142. The assault rifles are my favourite weapon in the game, plus the ability to self heal almost indefinitely and double c4's make for a very self sufficient combat class. If only medic got access to jet packs!
I just wish we had droppable medkits. Healing people one by one is so annoying. Drop medkit and jump into the fray, that's how it's supposed to work.
I feel gimped when I use LMGs or carbines. I have roughly 5 times as many kills with my favourite CM weapon (NS-11A) as any other infantry gun. ARs are definately not gimped. Assault rifle, underslung grenade launcher, Healing and C4 all in one package? Anyone underestimating CMs is in for some serious pain... HerpTheDerp: that's what the AOE heal is for, not just self healing Helghast has the gist of it I think. Combat Medics are the "assault" class of Planetside 2. Light assaults are the mobility kings, HA are the AT kings, and CMs are the plain "grunts".
