It's retarded but there is some law that prohibits the use of their retarded red cross symbol for other purposes. Within the last year or two, a game I play had to slightly edit the appearance of an item that used the symbol. That item had been around for like 20 years with no issue previously....
Did Team Fortress 2 get grandfathered in or is the medic's symbol just different enough to dodge this bull shit?
I suppose I could boot it up and play a spy for a bit, to try some of that "war crime action" they're bitching about now too.
As far as I'm concerned, red crosses and blue helmets are only going to be anywhere near me for the same reason. It's convenient, therefore, that both give convenient points of aim.
