I revive everyone I can
I revive everyone I can
I swear I revive, but ark fall bosses are usually in the air so I'm looking up most of the time... And I don't get knocked down myself too often.
I revive those I can, although I tend to wait until I hear someone's character cry for help before looking, as generally if I rush straight for someone who dropped they'll just self revive as I crouch down to get them up.
Not sure why people would choose dmg over reviving others really, even by reviving a few people per arkfall I can get first place pretty easily, and the more people you help, the more buddies who might help you back, not to mention you and someone else being out of the fight doesn,t mean you'll miss out on dmg. Just that others will take longer to down the current Arkfall.

I think the problem is that its to hard to see/hear other players that are down. I am the worst when i get killed saying all sorts of words i cant post on here. So whenever i see someone down i revive them asap. But last arkfall i did the person below me and above me in score had 17/14 revives. Yet i never saw anyone down. Maybe to busy trying to kill archers but its not very easy to see unless your looking for it or see it happen.
I've never seen anyone go down... a possible glitch. Also people walk all over me with no attempts to revive me. Pretty sure there is something wrong with notifying players when someone drops.
I try to revive peeps when I see them go down. Yes, it does help your ego rating................
Always revive. Whether it be in Borderlands, Guild Wars 2, Gears of War, etc; an extra gun on the field means a greater chance we'll get things done or failing that it is an extra target for the enemy to target so I can flank them. >;-)
3 things irk me though in Defiance:
1) Unless you're grabbing someone's ankles as you bleed to death they will most likely not bother reviving you even during a roadside event let alone an arkfall.
2) Revival reciprocation. I revive you and then get downed for my troubles. The least you can do is make an attempt to revive me please don't run into a hole so you can snipe *cough* McCracklin *cough*.
3) Is the Quick Chat > Callouts > HELP! menu bugged, or intentionally disappears (), for anyone else? Each time I've tried to use that menu (X360) whilst down the menu disappears before I can call for help... and don't even get started on sending a plea for help via Area Chat.
Whoa you die? I think most people just aren't used to seeing that.Originally Posted by Ann1h1lator

We talked about this back in beta and the conclusion was two fold :
A) There's not as much incentive or rather direct incentive to doing so - as opposed to games like Guild Wars 2
B) The people in these type of hybrid shooting games are generally morons - to be blunt, and are often oblivious to what's going on around them.
They're dead? I just thought they were using a /crawl emote!
But seriously, maybe its just bad luck. I'm always seeing people get revived pretty fast at arkfalls. And I've got revived before I could even think of hitting the self-revive when its happened to me. (On PC at least)
