Re: Why (almost) No One Uses Squad Commands?

There's also no incentive to give squad commands. To my knowledge there is no 'order followed' bonus for the leader nor squad mates.

Honestly Dice Sweden has watered down the significance of squads and squad play so much that they could easily remove them and the game would largely be the same. All they are now are a couple of free spawn points.

I'm not saying playing as a squad isn't effective. It is but it isn't being facilitated by the game. There is no machinations in the game to support, incentivise or force squad play to the point where folks running third party communication programs with their buddies have a significantly larger advantage than they should if the game did a better job at providing for squad based gameplay.

This is the answer.

There is just no incentive to play as a squad and no indication that squad actions are being completed.

The squad system is pointless as it is currently implemented.

Really? Thanks for the answer. I did not know there is no bonus exp for completing squad commands. My bad then ^^. Removed from the list.

Easy: Because you get nothing from squad orders and they are not working properly, as you have to use that really bad commorose in 9/10 times, because double tapping doesnt work.

@TickTack121I almost fell out of my chair laughing (maybe even a little crying) at how pathetic the commorose is. I had been playing for over 100 hrs before even noticing there is a second page to it. Seriously with all joking aside... who was low IQ'er who even thought that was a good idea? As if during such chaos that can be going on within any given match, you have time to sit there flipping through pages like your reading a book. LMAO.

Yep, that thing is completely useless and way to slow / complicated. Also just not working right.

@-NME-M0710NM4NThe weirdest thing about BF2042 is just how many stupid decisions EA/Dice has made.

Everything has to be 'redesigned' and most of the changes are just making things worse or the game not fun to play.

You can change squads, you just have absolutely 0 clue which one the game will through you into. After enough change squads, you finally get tossed into your own squad. When you go to change squads again, you'll either be placed in your original squad or back in your own solo squad.

There's a second set of commarose?

Point acquisition is so low there is no point to really narrow your focus on objectives, especially with so many extra players out there with itchy trigger fingers. I hate capping a ppint only to die at the very last second or spam the deploy on squad button to be met with an "in combat, you gotta wait" message for 0 credit.

Everyone is just a lone wolf in games these days, they don't care about PTFO. I get it, I love just doing my own thing too but people who work together usually live longer and earn more points
