I played this a lot yesterday. Way more than three matches, and there were definitely some terrible ones as the game mode allows them to start when teams are uneven. Still when the teams were full on each side. Some players refuse to play aggressively and stick with their squads at the objectives. It should come to no surprise that these are the teams that spend most of their time trying to fight out of the spawn.
This game mode should have full lobbies before the match starts and it should be open to as many platoon/clan players that want to play together. Battlefield is a team game after all, and how does playing in a squad/team full of randoms that don't even value their teammates or care about winning the game mode that they are playing represent team play? If people don't want to constantly lose to clans then how about try being a better teammate to the random players that you are teamed with? Then maybe you will have a chance.
It is 8 Vs 8 with 2 squads on a team. So at the very least each squad on a team needs to hold an objective to win. Just like every mode in Battlefield. This becomes frustrating when teamed with people that aren't actively participating or doing silly things during the match. Too many squads running around with no ammo boxes, sensor balls, health boxes, and no medics. Tactical Conquest magnifies all of the crappy player behavior that continues to plague the large scale game modes.
Only just like all of those other modes. When I am on a team that is actually working together to achieve the same goal. Tactical Conquest is gold. I also enjoy only having one of each specialist in a squad. This is one restriction that seems to fit well in this mode.
