    Corrections:
    - 1:44 The bandage and also plasma ( 2:40 ) automatically equip from the players inventory - however it's good to to this when taking loudout.
    - 4:22 If you want to submit back the starter pack ( pistol, 2x clips and hammer ), you can click on the hammer and the arrow up icon in "ACTIONS"
    - 4:40 The gas now works differently, it will first train your stamina and then it will start using your filter, that means that there is plenty of time to simply run away, thus you won't need it much really, also it weights a bit.
    - 13:45 There is now special inventory in all medical structures on the right side, for medical gear.
    - 14:30 Now there are 3 medical structures and 1 railway vehilce with can do this, besdies "Filed Hospital" and "Hospital" there is "Medical Room" and "First Aid Car", in with you can convert CWS.
    - 16:04 To retrive the patinet while it's still converting in bed slot, you can click on new button in "ACTIONS" called "Retrive Patient", and when the CWS is covereted (the bed is full), you have to click on another new button "retrive soldier supplies" to retrive the convereted soldier supplies.
    - 16:07
    Hospital: 1x CWS = 10 Soldier Supplies, 10min.
    First Aid Car: 1x CWS = 10 Soldier Supplies, 10min.
    Medical Room: 1x CWS = 4 Soldier Supplies, 10min.
    Filed Hospital: 1x CWS = 3 Soldier Supplies, 10min.

    No more ambulance ambushes if they're leaving the front, I think we've all learned our lesson.
    E: One additional bit for carrying wounded soldiers for revive;
    If you don't have any items equipped ( 1, 2, 3), you can open your inventory (Tab) and click the Wounded Soldier icon to drop them directly. Also the hotkey to drop carried items is Shift+V I believe.

      It's very satisfying and with great stories.
      To me, it is part of the logi cycle as it tries to salvage any shirts and medical equipment on the front.
      Super easy to set up as well. Especially if you make crates of ambulances in case you get ambushed.

    I used to only play medic so here's some notes I've gathered:
    My "routine" is to first take a
    * Medic fatique
    * 1 Tkit
    * 1 Mkit
    * 1 Bandaid
    * 1 Plasma
    Put on fatique, equip tkit and mkit, "load" them and your pistol.
    Then pull 10 bandaids and 5 trauma (if less experienced, take less), unless there is a shortage or if I know for a fact that the field is full of med supplies. Also pull 2 additional clips of 9mil ammo. This will be useful, I promise (plus everyone throws theirs away anyways).
    When on the field (excl. small OPs), you can be agressive. You shouldn't just stay back, you have to learn when to push to save a soldier and when not. Getting revived from a difficult position is a moral boost for certain (there's actual military stuff that can be read about the moral importance of medics.. Ok doesn't apply the same way but still). Combat medicing definitely does take some time to learn though, but remember to use covering fire (voice chat) for a less risky recovery (even from a frontline foxhole), and be mindful whether to revive someone in the spot or to extract them further away. If you revive where they were downed, once you have healed them, they will be a covering fire aspect to your reatreat.
    Keep moving around. A lot. The front will be large and quite often ppl don't care enough to come to you, you gotta go to them. Again, the morale is an aspect here as well. This is also where your pistol becomes important. The enemy doesn't expect a medic to have a pistol, so quite often they simply get scared and run away when you pull it out. Sounds stupid but you'd be surprised how many times it has happened. They are not expecting a firefight, so by surprising them you gain some time for your retreat.
    Remember to scavenge. If you have over 15 bandaids in your inventory from scavenging, drop some for your fellow infantrymen. They pick them up easily, and I'm ready to argue it makes enough of a difference.
    Remember to survey and follow the amount of medics on the front. Fronts don't usually need over 3-4 medics, so sometimes you should just pick up a rifle from a dead body and start playing as infantry, if the situation so needs.
    Most importantly: Use your head. You are not just a medic, you are also a soldier. You shouldn't just stay back and loiter, make a difference (but ofc don't die, duh). Help your tanks as close infantry support, pick up a rifle or grenade every now and then if needed, keep looting and scavenging and giving scavenged loot to those who need it. Use. Your. Head.
    There's some other things too but this is my personal experience.
    Edit: Just for bragging rights, I got the game in May 2020, so not a complete newbie ;)

      I'll acknowledge you bragging rights ;).
      It is roughly what I do as well. The only thing I'm never sure of is when I'm running with a secondairy (I don't always do that) do I keep an extra mag in my inventory or do I leave it's spot open for looting/medic stuff. I hardly use my secondairy so it seems a waste to have a 2nd mag, but when I use it I need more than one mag.
      " ...and quite often ppl don't care enough to come to you, you gotta go to them." I do agree but I offer a counter point; a lot of infantry players have their focus on their aim reticule or their surroundings, not their character. So I don't think it's a matter of "not caring" and more a matter of "not noticing".
      Calling people out to get back and get healed generally works fine in that instance

      @@FreerkHoltes On the matter of the pistol: I personally think, as with everything here, that it depends. Can think of both kinds of situations where in one's medic supps more useful than the 9mil and vice versa. I barely ever find myself being the only medic on the front, so I usually think to prioritize the 9mil, but yeah, very situational for sure.
      On caring: Bad choice of words for me, completely agree with you :D

  • @Domi2gud
    @Domi2gud 9 месяцев назад +9

    Hey Feerk, thanks for this video. IMO there are a couple of easy improvements you can make to your videos that might result in improvement to Foxhole in general:
    - You should teach new players to avoid standing on the road, such as when you show them refueling their ambulance. They should do it from the side of the road that's not going to result in them becoming roadkill.
    - You should teach players to submit items they don't need directly to base inventory, instead of the top left window.

  • @thelonecabbage7834
    @thelonecabbage7834 8 месяцев назад +13

    Additional tips:
    1) A body weighs 55%, meaning that if you keep your weight under 44%, you'll remain at 99% or below and will still be able to run [SHIFT] while carrying a wounded soldier. The lower the better.
    2) If you see a friendly medic saving someone, they most likely don't need your help. Running over to heal/revive only makes you all a bigger target. Enemies will sacrifice themselves to take out two medics and a wounded.
    3) Guns save more lives than trauma kits. Without a doubt the #1 thing you can do to keep allies alive is to guard their rear/flank. An SMG is a fantastic weapon to prevent a bayonet rush from the rear. Even if your aim is garbage, shooting will alert your allies to the incoming threat. Pop a few shots off and fall back screaming if you need to.

    • @zanaduz2018
      @zanaduz2018 20 дней назад +1

      You cannot pick up actually-dead bodies (bloodied corpses). You can only pick up Critically Wounded Soldiers (CWS), which look like an un-bloodied person lying on the ground (not to be confused with a player in prone).
      CWS are what you submit into hospitals to get sweet sweet shirts out of. Submit the CWS (submit large item or press V while facing the hospital), then submit patient into a vacant bed.

    • @a.ozzie.o
      @a.ozzie.o 20 дней назад +1

      @zanaduz2018 I see..so bodies that are dead, nameless and un-bloodied.

    • @zanaduz2018
      @zanaduz2018 20 дней назад

      @a.ozzie.o Yes. A Critically Wounded Soldier counts as a large item, and so you’ll see a prompt saying to pick it up if you’re in reach like other large items (eg. artillery shells or sandbags). You will *not* see this prompt if the soldier is still alive (you’ll see their name over their head instead), or if they are fully dead.
      If you need help identifying CWS’s, the Foxhole wiki has some images to help you identify which is which.

      The Critically Wounded Soldiers are not player characters anymore.
      Everytime you die, not have the timer but die, there is a change your character becomes a CWS. This RNG roll basically happens as soon as you die, which is why you hardly ever see your bodies turn into a CWS.

    Medics, please, for the love of god, stop competing with other medics for revives/ healing. If you see a medic closer to an injured person or downed player, let them take care of it. I have swapped off medic countless times because other medics keep trying to bud into my business. It’s genuinely so annoying because it just wastes resources and time so I end up running off cause I dont want to waste my resources if this brainless medic is gonna try to take over anyway. It’s not a competition, we are all here to help the team, buzz off and rez someone else. It’s so annoying

      But I do have a question for you: If the job of a medic is to keep the unit in fighting form, why wouldn't the second medic who sees you medkitting come and make the job a bit faster + use resources more equally? By using their medkit they are actually saving your supplies by using theirs.
      A non-competitive medic simply tries to heal as much as possible. If you are thinking "this was my patient, mind you're business", you're the competitive one.

    • @FreerkHoltes
      @FreerkHoltes  9 месяцев назад +2

      I have seen this happen but my take is slightly different. There seems to be a divide in how people deal with, especially, downed players.
      Some will want to revive the downed player they carried back themselves so that the other medics can deal with other parts of the front.
      Others will happily run with a downed soldier and equip the First Aid Kit to drop the downed and start healing as soon as the other medic finishes the revive.
      I see no issue with either of this methods.
      Where things "clash" is when you expect to revive the downed one you carried back and somebody else "steals" the revive. Part of that issue is we don't really have an established "common practice".
      Personally I'm fine with "going with the flow", which means I just try to adjust to what other medics are doing. If I'm running back with a downed and another medic shows up? I'll equip my medkit. If none runs up, I revive myself. When I'm healing and another medic shows up? I usually just move away and let them finish the healing, or if it's a blob of people keep healing or try to make sure everybody scatters.
