Re: Playing together with friends is discouraged in BF 2042

This was discussed several times already.
Having a squad size of >5 is bad from a gameplay perspective as those squads are hard to impossible to wipe to clean up an area/flag. So I say 4 is OK, 5 might be better, 6 is pushing it (too far IMO) and >7 would be a very bad choice.
What is definitely needed is the ability to create bigger parties with all players that want to play together. They should then be put on the same server of course when MM is started. For us, a party size of 10 would be enough. But I don't think there should be any limit as far as party size is concerned. But what is also needed is of course squad management tools in order for those players to rearrange themselves into the correct squads after they are finally on the server. But at least this was already confirmed to be on the horizon for S5.
