A Medpack Idea

I think that you should be able to get yourself out of incap at the cost of a health pack, I mean that would make sense, wouldn't it?

Not really. It is sorta hard to take a medpack off your back and heal yourself. You are immobilized when on the ground, you cant bend over completely to heal leg or something like that.

Yet they can get up without any medical assistance.

Exactly. think about it, if you got beaten to the ground by 30 "zombies", well lets just say humans, you would have broken limbs and be all messed up. You wouldnt be able to heal yourself, let alone get to the payphone across the street to call for help.

It ruins the whole point of being incapped, that you NEED a teamate to come help you. So no to this idea.

It's not a matter of realism. It's like dizzle said, the point of the incap is that a teammate has to heal you. Besides, it would make it a ton tougher for the infected team.

most people would just rambo through the whole level if this was a possibility..

l4d urges the use teamwork too, so if there was no need to help out a fellow teammate, teamwork would be useless in this game.

Horrible idea. It would be too easy to take down tanks (well, easier), and versus would just be pointless :P

Its a team co-operated game so no this idea wouldn't work...otherwise you'd have maniacs running ahead and so forth not being part of a TEAM!!

So when you become incapped you need help and only way you can get that help is if another team mate is near by

Not exactly. You still need to get help to get a hunter or smoker off of ya. Plus, that makes the witches of no use in this game. So the only thing of use in the whole game is a health pack if that idea is on the game.
