Sadly - I see it happen a lot. I will admit that I could be better about it but I am so gun shy of getting killed while reviving and having the revivee get killed instantly again I am sometimes overly cautious.
I will say that Saturday night I got to play with perhaps the best squad I have ever played with. It was three guys from the 507 clan and me. First it was understood that everyone should go with a different perk (Oh so many people ignore this). Then we had two medics, a support and a sniper. The sniper was there for spawn beacon and didn't camp with his shotgun. The play style was similar so it was easy to keep together and the ammo and revives were fast without ever needing to be requested. We took spots 1-4 on a 64 person metro server. They were nice too!
Yeah, in some maps/areas when I play as Assault, I'll go on a revive spree and just keep getting people revived in areas with mass deaths. But if it's more of a "stumble into the area" type thing, not sure where E are (or they have the area on lockdown) I'm more likely not to revive - especially if I'm trying to get away myself.
I love being revived, but I also hate people who revive me when there are E everywhere, and I get killed again before I can even move.
Then again, I still can't play yet. Been trying different/new drivers, different tweaks (even just flashed my mobo to the 3203 BIOS for my P8Z68 Deluxe - hoping for better video stability... and still BF3 hardlocks), etc. Dammit I can't play.
Haven't tried much in the way of non-CQ, though at one point a server with Dam Peak CTD'd, do need to try a vanilla BF3 server, one without any DLC addons).
Next up, apparently an even newer BIOS for my GPUs, and downgrade from Geforce 304.48 to 301.42 (I had skipped the WHQL entirely, from 301.24 to 304.48). If that doesn't solve it, I'll drop down to a single-monitor resolution - I'll be pissed if that is the only way to play though. Sure, it looks prettier, but dammit. Probably won't work either... this shit is buggered and DICE/EA hasn't said a damn thing regarding this (other than on the forums basically saying "duly noted").
