Hmmm..true. I never had any heavies throw me a sandwich (or a bone), ever. So much so that I only found out that you can throw it when I was playing Heavy myself.

Wait... you can throw sandwitches now? :o

It's been a while since I played, but still XD

WTF, ceralishishly?, guys?

[url=#user_comment_55895]@wasd[/url]: Clearly you have never played medic have you? @Jo: what servers you normally play on? I'd love to pocket a heavy that does that sort of teamwork

Replace the Sandvich with an MP7M Healing Dart, the Heavy with a Field Medic and the Mini-Medic with an injured Teammate and you get the Killing Floor version of this strip.

Maybe you should use a script for that like
bind "4" say: "Wait! I got a sandvich" or something like that. I'm not that good at script writing.

only bad heavies use sandwich when they're getting pocketed
a decent heavy will bring the shotgun

Thats a big sandwich

Typical Sandvich transfer.txt:
Heavy (Me): Take my sandvich
Take it
Take...
Take the Sandvich
I'm pointing at it right now
...
I'm not moving until you take my Sandvich
...
I'm going to keep shooting my Sandvich until you take it
...


EVERY. FUCKING. TIME.

WHY IS IT SO TRUE?!?!

"Good luck trying to make your medic get these sandvich you just threw to him."

IT'S A TRAP

Never really noticed this. Whenever I play Heavy with Sandvich(which isn't often) they accept their meal gratefully.

Oh, I dunno. On my regular server, most regulars use mics, and if a heavy notices a medic's hurtin' (and sometimes the medic will ask for the sandvich), he'll usually ask him to stand still and then toss it right at him.

Sandvich on ground = a non-medic often picks it up by accident.

@emo panda

Notice that the line depicting the arc of the shot is different in each panel. Therefore, they must be three different panels.

[url=#user_comment_55855]@Davtwan[/url]: I play Medic a lot, but I don't use voice communication because Macs go herp derp when the internal mic is activated and hangs for a couple seconds. I end up relying entirely on voice commands because of it.

Disco inferno!

Burn baby burn

I believe the point, Mr. Panda, was that by repeating the same frame multiple times, the artist was emphasizing the repetitiveness of the work involved.

@Emo Panda: Pony up if you think you can do better. =P

The only times I have seem a Medic calm down to take a Sandvich or ask for a Sandvich are those who use voice commication wisely.

In fact, most Medics who use voice commication wisely pretty much wipe the team when they buddy up with a smart player.

@Emo Panda: But a basketball drama is not what he was going for.

Wow! This comic is real lazy and crap today Jo! You could have redrawn the backboard for each panel and at a different angles. It would have given it a more "basketbal drama" feel!

A medic is like a deer on a freeway. We're so busy trying to heal people and dodge that we honestly don't see you toss a sandvich, and consider it suspect that someone threw something at us that isn't armed.

oh Jo, we medics are the ones making theese sanvitches, we know what's REALLY in them, that's why we avoid them.

As a someone who plays heavy a lot this is absolutely true, even when they're not on fire.

Can't you tell? That Sandvich is female, see the *rounded* figure? :P

True.

Female Sandwhich? WELL GOOD LUCK TRYING TO DRAW THAT OUT.

"Good luck trying to make your medic get these sandvich you just threw to him."

i think there should be a female version of every character, because tf2 doesn't satisfy my sexual fantasies.

@gack!: http://nerfnow.com/comic/102

Heavy: Go SandvichBall!!

he is ready

i think there should be a female pyro in a later comic (as a main character too :o) :P

[url=#user_comment_55821]@Cybercobra[/url]: There's really no excuse not to throw sandvich for your medic, now that they regenerate after 30 secs and can still be refreshed with a health pack.

i think heavy should have practiced more on his dunks than his shots.

and ofcource when they do try to protect and heal there medic the medics completely ignore it. >_>
its so rare to find a good medic and a good heavy actualy meet and team up.

its good to see some good morals here,
i myself try to heal medics when i notice they are damaged and do try to protect them.
its just such a damm shame so few people do this!
heal the man thats keeping you alive is what i say!

@Picker of Nits: Good Heavy will heal, like I said. Unfortunately for you, I play demoman.

I know what you mean though. A good heavy is so hard to find but so awesome when you find one.

In defense of medics, we usually don't expect heavies to bother trying to heal us, no more than we would expect them even to notice if we were taking damage. We're too concerned with being on fire and trying to preserve our remaining 30 hitpoints, instead of waiting for a miracle.

@Picker of Nits: I think team fire was only in the sequels. In the original game only one player could be on fire at a time.

@Denilson Sá: Yeah, if you made 3 buckets in a row with none for your opponent, you lit on fire and it improved your shot accuracy. It also prevented you from being called for goaltending.

Also NBA Jam had Charles Barkley. Barkley was the shit!

@Denilson Sá: I believe it was player. There was, however, something called "team fire" which affected your whole team and lasted like 20 seconds instead of lasting until the other team finally scored a shot. Don't remember how you could get team fire though.

The worst part is, if you miss the bot medics, they won't even run to pick up the sandvich. Very frustrating...

I have seen this so many freaking times. I literally have to yell at my medic.

Eye of the Siberian Tiger.

Silly Mini-Medic, you must ALWAYS bring a portable friendly Pyro with you in case that happens!

HAHAAHHAAHAHhAHAHAHAHAHahahahahahHAHAHAAHAHH

*breaths*

HAHAHAHAHAAAAHHHHHAAHahahHAHAHAHAHHAahhahaHAHAH!!!!

sandvish in the hole!!

For people who never played NBA Jam, if a player (or a team, I don't remember) scores several shots without other player (or team) scoring, the narrator says "He's on fire!", and also the ball becomes a fire ball (including putting fire at the basket). Oh, playing NBA Jam was a lot of fun!

[url=#user_comment_55787]@Sableneko[/url]: LOL! I was thinking that too. I knew this had to be an NBA Jam reference. Thanks for reminding me of the actual line. =P

What makes him a good Heavy?

At first I thought this was going to be an NBA Jam joke.

HE'S ON FIRE!

@Mr. Wise Guy: Maybe they should make a small arrow? Like the one when you enable the option to have an arrow above the heal target, but it would go around the screen too like the medic call.
(I don't know if you could get all this, apologies)

Happens to me all the time.
I throw it to him and he dodges it and it hits a corner and he just ignores it like its rotten food. They need to make it more noticable.

@Grammar Police: Good heavy knows to keep medic healed with nutritious sandvich! I always try.

That aside, I would have to say that the medic is usually on fire because the rest of the team steals the medkit you so rightfully deserve; and only rarely do heavies give you their sandvich.

It took a couple minutes to reread your sentences enough for me to finally grasp what it is you were saying.

i dont get it :

That medic is a spy!

lol lets hope heavy's basketball practices will pay off... HEAL CHIBI MEDIC!

Don't worry I practiced.

Oh yeah you know it.

Cut it out.

FIRST!!!!!!!! and speaking of which, i love chibi medic!!!!!
