Yea most of the time it looks like that already. The absolute most irritating thing is 1 or 2 person locked squads. Unless it is a 2 person team that flies a jet or attack chopper those squads are useless. 9 people on the server on each side wont be switched, wow, who cares really. Somebody mentioned something about smart autoswitching, there is no such thing. While I understand it is needed to prevent horribly unbalanced teams, it still sucks.

At least 3 or 4 people should be in a 'squad' for it to even count as one.

however, as a SL you cant really force anyone to join your squad either.
You just have to get lucky I guess :laugh:

I have been on servers with all the squads locked & only ONE person in them. Those people should be banned from all servers.... PERIOD! Damn Idiots!

I doubt it, but even if it is, it does not change the point

People like to lonewolf as a squad leader because then it looks good on their stats, they get all the benefits of being a squad leader, and they don't have to really command anybody. If I go lonewolf (which I have for most of my time, because I don't want to drag a squad down with my n00bness, but I've been joining more lately) I take all it's disadvantages that go with it. That's how the game should be played. I think they should make you need at least two people in a squad before you can lock it.

If this were the testing, it could have been that they were all testing the ability to join a locked squad with the squad leaders approval. You know, that feature that WAS in the demo, but somehow disappeared in the retail? At least the squad leaders don't have to sit around and try to find someone in the Manage Squad menu anymore if they know some friends are going to join.

What the hell? We're not complaining dumbass, we're just concerned. And what's with this hostile attitude? We couldn't have been more calm about this.

Where in my post am i hostile ?

If you look at my post it was more of a question then anything else there are a few post now regarding the patch1.03 and i dont see how peeps can judge a change before they have tried it.

You said you had concerns, Why are you concerend because you might have to playe with 2 peeps less on the opposite side??

I think its obviouse that this change will only last for the round you are in so when the next round starts anyone can be changed to the oposite side regardless of what you were in the last round(squad leader/commander)I could be wrong:laugh:

Why would they lock the squads?
As long as they're Squad Leader it doesn't matter if others are in the squad.

Come to think of it, if it did get like this, it wouldn't stay like this long. I doubt they'd be able to deal with all the "OMG1337SNIPER has requested to join your squad. Hit page up to accept or page down to decline." sort of messages when people try joining. :laugh:

Re: v1.03: Will squads be maxxed and look like this because of lonewolves?

why would they lock it when they still wont get switched if people join their squad

Yes. I had to add squad #4 though 9. I couldn't find a server with 9 squads already made.

Also I wanted to show squad #4 though 9 locked with only 1 person in it to show that in the 1.03 patch that lonewolves will do this so they don't get switched.

Many people don't like having people spawn on them because it gives away their position - you're trying to be all stealthy and your medic go running in the middle of the road and draws the attention of the enemy tank that kills both of you.

We'll see.
