Been noticing when playing, that after i get downed, people who aren't support class have a Medic icon over them.. How come?

I notice engineers (cause they have a backpack with rockets) have it.

Sometimes it shows everyone around me is a medic...

Im pretty sure it is broken or it is part of the glitch where you pick up support kit and then swap back and you can drag revive teammates. Then maybe you permanently show as able to revive.

Its annoying bug, it makes my job (support) way lot harder when everyone skips revive

i think i've heard of that issue too but i dont think its that

start of the game, literally im one of the first to die, my teammates catch up to where i am, a lot of them already had the medic icon by then, dont think they did the swap thing, unless swaping in menu does that too lol oof

Yeah then it is a bug. Ive noticed the same thing, think the only thing that is accurate is when it shows support that are near you at the bottom of screen. But even that is glitches sometimes and shows no medics near me.

This bug is now a few weeks old.
The only thing you can rely on is the "nearest medics" list in the lower part of your screen. That is still correct

Crazy how BF fans will accept never ending bugs and repeating bugs. But show them AA game made by one dude with jank and they'll call it slop.

Sometimes it seems to show no medics nearby though and then I get revived anyway because there were in fact medics? Might just be the distance lagging.

Noticing that it seems my own team doesn’t come up most of the times. Just show other medics around but then suddenly I get revived by my own teammate.

A few times I could revive everybody as a Recon or Assault in the start of the match. Only after playing support in the last match. No biggie and quite fun, happened maybe 4 times.

Theres still a bug where if you pick up a medics class and then pick yours back up you can revive players as any class
