About Me
About time I updated this freaking thing!
For those who already know me, I am Monodi. Those who doesn't, well, I am Monodi.
I got such a growing passion of gaming through the years and now I am currently in college starting my courses of Game Design as well!
I consider myself a Nintendo fanboy from all my life, but I have been much more in contact with titles for PC recently. Not that I am abandoning one, but I think it pretty much could cover the best the industry has to offer.
I am up for the philosophy that gameplay is more important than graphics, but I think graphics and technology are also a crucial part of the industry and experience even.
Games I love and recommend in no particular order
Rhythm Heaven (DS)
Half-Life 2 (PC/XBOX)

For a decent time, I have been into the role of burning things when I was first recruited into the job of working for nastily rich companies, but just recently I decided to try something more demanded and way interesting. Due to it is that I am not here to do damage, but to remove it instead. After taking a short and overrated course of human anatomy and überology, I was ready to arrive the crossfire once again. But now I am facing a new dilemma, how important is my work here after all? Once the gates open it is about less than 10 seconds until I begin to hear my demands. Suddenly depending on the amount of people surrounding me, my task becomes saturated of "patients". Sure it is easy to call my name, but do you have an idea of how hard is to keep with my schedule?! Let's take an example, if you are a scout remember something simple. THOU ART TOO FAST FOR ME! I cannot jump as high, I cannot run as fast and everybody is after you! But I have to face other problems while doing my job. I am here to heal you, but who is here to heal me? I would value if I am chargin, you have some respect for me and MY DRAT FIRZT AID KITZ! I NEED THOSE! Why do you need more health you gluttonous swine! 
But probably the worst thing I have to deal with my team is credit. Sure, I do receive some of it after assisting my mate to blow guts, but they think they can do everything by themselves. Sure you can be good at swinging that baseball bat, but is not like you were invincible to that sniper, pyro and heavy pointing at you! I could keep all day telling my peeves, but I will tell you what I enjoy. It is curious how discriminated I get for my role. Many think that I am vulnerable, mousy and pathetic, but my adrenaline rushes every time they taunt me with their presumed strength and dexterity. Remember that I know your body, and i know where it hurts most. I count with some of the best technology to amputate and paralyze. So bring it on, fellers. Your tiny dagger is worthless against my syringes. On the other side while I am healing, people at least thank me sometimes for my job, and I feel like the mission is far from possible without me on the zone. The defense and offense goes down if I am not there. You want to raid a whole team? Remember my charge. Want to keep your sentries on? Remember my charge! The base needs to be taken soon and safe? Vergessen sie nicht mein gebühr! 
I am here to help after all, I am the medic and I will assist you. If you let me. Fool.

And speaking of medic discrimination, it's just easier to go ballistic and shoot at enemy players rather than focus on how your team is doing. Sure, you can be a team player and lend a hand. But you can be a pyro and constantly spam flames all over the map.
I'm surprised you have people talking shit to you for playing medic. I honestly can't even remember the last time, if ever, I've seen that happen. I have no issue playing medic, it's an easy way to get to the top of the scoreboard.
Medics and scouts are the only classes whose speed doesn't decrease when moving backwards, remember that.
Great job, Monodi.
No one will see it coming. No one will know what hit them.
You and your Engie will be king.
I was medic at first but then I quickly changed to Pyro after realising that NOBODY WUVED ME! =[
I spammed the MEDIC!! cry the entire match after that, out of spite. :3 Medic's my favorite class, and being an ass to me doesn't help anyone.
I'd say about 70% of the time, I'll be on a team that shuns the medic (despite shouting 'Medic!' all the time) and end up getting wiped out by uber-charged squads; so I end up having to balance the odds. Once someone else gets the gist, I swap to an offensive character until they give up playing doctor.
If you're quick at swapping weapons, the medic can give a weak or injured class a run for their money, but hardly anybody ever sticks with the character long enough to find that out.
1)Healing one guy and ignoring others at all times. It's not so bad but topping off multiple guys makes your offensive squad that much harder to kill as a whole
2)Ubering multiple people- It's like people don't pay any attention to the achievements. Yes, you can uber 2 people at once and yes you should absolutely do it when possible. Even switching uber targets confuses the heck out of the defending team.
3) Having a charged uber and never using it. There's a balance b/t waiting for the ideal time and using it when necessary. Holding onto your uber charge for as long as possible does not yield you more points.
4) And finally, my biggest peeve, when ubering a heavy or a pyro in an attempt to take out a sentry+repairing engie, the medic usually stands behind the heavy and pyro- Both classes do their most damage at close range. Nothing annoys me more in TF2 than when I'm ubered to take out a sentry and pinned down by sentry fire while the medic stands behind me expecting me to take out that sentry from far away. TAKE THE SENTRY FIRE AND LET ME MOVE UP...YOU'RE FREAKIN INVULNERABLE FOR CHRISSAKES!!
... a really enjoyable read (and I just love being a medic class!)
Vielen Dank, Herr Medic.
MEDIC IS CREDIT TO TEAM!
Anyways medic is easy to play and rarely ever in excess on a team. I probably logged somewhere between 150-200 hours on it, but I try to avoid it now when not necessary because I like the challenge of having an impact with classes that take more skill (mostly Soldier, Heavy is fun but pretty easy too). Or I just dick around and shoot people with flareguns or bows and arrows.
