Day of Defeat Wiki

The Combat Medic (Feld-Arzt in the Axis) is a cut class from Day of Defeat and Day of Defeat: Source.[1]

Overview[]

The Combat Medic was originally planned to be added during the game's Alpha phase in 2000. This class was intended to have the unique ability to heal teammates (likely with bandages), although he would not be able to do so if players were below 30% health. The medic was not supposed to carry any primary weapons and could only use sidearms.

The Medic class was never added to Day of Defeat, though some of its mechanics were partially retained in the form of bandages, which were later removed in version 1.0. This class was also likely considered for inclusion in Day of Defeat: Source, as evidenced by unused voice lines in the game files where characters shout "Medic!"[2]
