Nope. I am on the ps3.
Would have thought that with the team sizes group chatting would be a normal thing.

Because it's either a) by accident or b) will encourage sniping even more as people sit in the hope they can get one.
Either way, it doesn't need rewarding.

What happened? Also whats a bolt action sniper like with a 4x?
Every time I put a 4x scope on it a huge black line just appeared on the screen like it was some kind of overheat with a graphics card on a PC. As for what it's like well, not bad to be honest but due to the none one shot one kill unless to the head and the slow reload of each bullet I would not recommend it unless your a good shot. The SVU is better if you want to go CQB with a sniper.

Only when they're dead - you'll see a white lightning strike on the map where your fallen comrades are - squad members will have a green strike. It can be a bit of "find the body" as it's not always obvious. When you get near the body, you will see the same lightning strike symbol above them. It starts off strong but gradually fades as time runs out. Once it fades completely, they've respawned and you're too late. Once you have just get out your defrib and 'fire' at the body and they'll get back up. Also you can't revive people who commit suicide (or get run over - not sure about this one).
Haha, defib is used to revive, healthpacks are used to heal.
was gonna ask about them too, do you just throw them on the floor then your comrades can pick them up by just walking over them?
They don't get picked up. They have a finite amount of health "points" (which we cannot see) so they heal anybody near them until they expire these points or you throw a new pack down elsewhere.
There are two specialisations you can equip, one to heal quicker and one to increase the range of the pack so that teammates don't have to stand on top of them to be healed.
They have an effective radius which can be increased by using the unlocks you get as you progress through the Medic class, so anyone nearby will gradually regain health until it's used up/disappears. Same goes for ammo boxes.
You get more (double?) points for squad heals/revives, so keep an eye on that too.
