Maybe i am missing the point though.

I gotta say then, I am too.

Medics arent removed from the fight, healing anyone.
Anyone removed from the fight, ain't getting injured, right?

The chopper capping thing: The flag changes slower or faster based off the number soldiers, not the vehicle. One guy in a chopper isnt gonna change any faster than the guy who walked to it, and the guy in the chopper will be too late to change it 'cause the guy in the DPV got to it first...

All I'm saying is that running around healing ppl can get you points faster and can be less dangerous than capping a flag all alone towards a team win. If I wanted to rack up points for myself, I'd do nothing but heal and pass out med packs. While medics contribute to a team win, taking a flag alone accounts for only 3 points or so. I've seen medics rack up big points not even trying to cap one flag. So that's my opinion...not a bitch...just my view.
An example is Strike at Karkland as MEC....you can hang at the first flag and just rack up points healing as ppl get picked off or killed.

About the copter hopping, noones seen someone take off alone and go from flag to flag very quickly? This usually happens on servers with lots of noobs and one chopper pilot whose hip, so that's not really too big a deal with me.

I'm of the opinion that medic healing points should be tweaked down just a tad.

Last of all...it depends on the quality of players joining server, I know that.
