I think bandages healing is good. Medic is by far (too far) the best class and a lot of that is because of the self-healing. Making medic less of an obvious choice will increase the variety of classes on the ground which is good for the game.
Yeah, Medic is sooo OP right now. Moves fast, heals himself and others, tons of ez points just rezzing people.
But it's the only points scrubs like myself are gonna get! D:
I generally agree as well. This buff to bandages will also indirectly buff ammo boxes even more, and medics will still have their niche in being able to heal others without even using up their bandage supply.
This is an interesting angle! It's important to note that bandages will only heal yourself. Applying bandages to teammates will not heal anything. This works around that because engineers can provide others bandages they can then use to heal, like some sort of sneaky medic.
Technically you can drop bandages for other players regardless of your class, but actually coordinating that in most cases wouldn't be worth it.
I agree with this.
