What do you currently dislike about Squad and how would you change it?

I dont like the quality of the average squad leader.

 

There is no way to qualify if servers are run well, or if squad leaders are trust worthy. 

 

there needs to be a qualification like a 10 star system or a thumbs up from squad members to validate squad leaders as being good.

 

Yeah it's actually getting pretty shocking lately on the Australian servers. Wish there was some kind "aura" system in the game

yeah, so why have a "like" system on the forum, and not have it in game? 

 

Im a dedicated mature gamer!
Please try my god damn idea already, im certain it will bare fruit. 
It aint perfect but the current system exposes the flaws in the current system. 
We couldnt do it in project reality, but you can do it in squad.

 

Im so tired of playing these games for 10 years+, with no prestige or experience system. 
MMOs have exp systems, even vanilla bf2 had xp. But squad could ACTUALLY benifit from an xp system.

If you dont want to be squad leader you just give it to the most experienced person in the squad.

I think "random weapon sway" should be renamed to "your gun will never go steady if there's an enemy infront of you"

 

I've tried re-creating the scenario by running around like a madman then quickly raising sights and then pressing the focus button and it always goes steady, yet if there's an enemy i'm trying to kill then my aim will NEVER go steady on the first press even if I have full stamina, have only been walking, and have only pressed focus for the first time.

Rallies should be live for 30-45 seconds before disappearing. Think for a few minutes about the effects on strategy. Medics' and SLs' lives become a lot more important.

And in turn fobs then become much more important because they become the only really permanent frontline spawn point.

Thing is what we need!!!!! Lives would be much more important.

maze2, t0xicity, Monk, Psyrus I agree with you on the RP's, we do have a plan to overhaul them along with the FOB spawning.

 

Don't expect it to happen this month, but it will be coming. The current RP spawn system is not set in stone and will change.

Yep, we've lured a wild Fuzzhead in to make things more pretty. Already got to show off some of his work in the recap. Great to have him aboard!

the problem is that people don't play that well together beside of clans and if rally points only last a short time it could lead to even more frustration for average players (no vehicles in main base, no fob, no rally = nearly impossible to have fun and get into the battle)

i don't know we will see, maybe fobs will be better defended then but if not there will be even more steamrolling of teams.

I ve never had a problem, people would get used to it . This is needed to solve the meatgrinders mate. Idk how people would be frustrated, this might make the playerbase much more organized than just sending bodies to an attack, maybe start using more fire and movement more. Some SLs play it like if it was ww1 sending waves of ppl, that's much worse than anything that could think of.

Exactly, you can give us all the tools in the world and people will still play it how they want too. Public play will always be hit and miss. 

 

Clan/Regiment games will always be the best place for "proper" gameplay.

My 2 big problems are the rally point system and name tags. 

 

I think the current rally point system promotes players to not work together as players just constantly give up re spawn and run back into the grinder.  A SL primary role is to ensure that the Rally point is always up rather than maneuvering a squad and commanding a squad.  I think changing the rally point system to a set timer would solve a number of issues with the game.  It would incentive medic use, promote more team play within a squad, and end the meat grinder that currently exists.

 

For name tags I would say get rid of all name tags except for people within 8 meters of you.  If they are beyond that then just check your map to figure out who the person is.

Sitting, I'd like to see sitting.

 

Like in ArmA, so you can sit down on a hill next to a rock or a tree or in a trench, without exposing yourself like when you prone out of a trench.

 

My thoughts on WHY:

Less recoil/more support for your weapon than just crouching, more restricted than crouching, so you're slower to get up, faster than proning.

 

Often I notice that when you're prone on a hill or behind a tree you are limited by as an example, grass or little rocks in front of you, and if you're on a semi-steep hill, prone only makes you face down the hill.
