Well, armour doesn't glow so that's already an upgrade over many other ones. It looks pretty alright though I'll have to see it in-game to decide if I actually like it. I'm curious if it'll come with something that'll make it stick out (first step towards specialisations mentioned in the past?) or if it'll be just a generic piece of equipment like everything else.
Or maybe they’ll eventually nerf the medgun so that only these newer ones can actually revive people.
If that were the case then there's even less of a reason for the old one to exist. Right now we have multi-tool attachment and med gun, both of which serve pretty much the same role with very little to differentiate them. Add a new gun which does the same AND can heal injuries? Why would you use the current one at this point?
They'd have to make this one limited to injury healing and/or reviving for this to make sense in my opinion. Or maybe it'll replace it completely? It would feel like a waste but who knows.
I have a hard time coming up with ideas on what else it could be used for honestly.
Any idea what the lower box is?
Looks like a smaller version of the first-aid kit above it. Perhaps they'll replace the ones already existing on our ships and finally make them usable? That would be nice.
Edit: Well, Pipeline discord managed to leak a pic of the new med gun already. Apparently it's an old design? I don't remember it but there's a lot of things they've shown throughout the years so that's possible. Here is the picture.
