Squad Features

Re: Squad Features

Me and my clan mates tried it and found it lacking, no tactical advantage of being in a squad, and the rounds are too short to even bother joining/creating them. As you said it's some kind of start, maybe it will be improved overtime or just totally forgotten.

Is it a server option? cause when I press X I only see the map

My bad. I missed a step. You need to press [ESC] first to join or create the squad, then once you're squad leader, you press [X] to bring up the map and assign the waypoint. I've edited the instructions above. Thanks for catching that. :)

Who's tried them? Who hasn't? Who didn't even know they were in the game?

- Pressing [ESC] (as default) in-game brings up the large map, with options to create a new squad, or join an existing one.
- When you join a squad, your squad-mates will show up in blue on the mini-maps.
- As squad leader, you can bring up the map by pressing [X] (by default), put your cursor on a particular area, and press [fire] to issue a command for your guys to attack/move to that area (waypoint). They will see it marked as a blue circle/star on their map. As squad leader, you can also cancel an existing waypoint, and put it somewhere else.

Very basic stuff, not like BF2, but it's a start. Should hopefully help a bit at trying to get more teamwork into the game.

So try it out, or if you have already, what do you think?
