128 isn't divisible by 5, but it is divisible by 4, which make 32 squads of 4, if it was 5 then some players won't have a full squad, the next divisible number is 8, which is a way too large squad
@mathematics654 That is no excuse. In some cases you can get good use out of squads of 2. Does this mean we should have 2 man squads? No. Thats ridiculous.
More than that its ridiculous to assume every server is going to packed with full squads. That's absurd, lone wolf gameplay is also important in minor roles.
The MINIMUM Dice should be bringing from squads should be 6 despite the division. 8 is obviously the ideal.
4 man squads are jokes that laugh in the face of everything DICE originally did to make BF the game that became what it is today.

I believe 4-man squads were invented in BFV as Firestorm utilized 4-man squads... So Dice could save 15minutes of dev-time by avoiding to program 5-man squads...

EA took the liberty to screwup mu thread and mixed it with mindless request of 5 players squad BF4 style wich was already a low number for a 32 player team ..
For a 128 player match we NEED AND REQUIRE at least 8 players lobbys to create a 8 player squad divided into 2 fireteam of 4 to prevent abusive squads respawn .
But we need bigger lobby of friends for matchmaking and better structure otherwise we will be stuck in match with KDR farmers who never work for objectives and a squad of 4 or 5 will be meaningless to achieve anything

@DeeCay_DK_81 No the number in squads have varied over the years. BF2 had 6 man squads, BC2, BF3 had 4 man squads, BF4 5 man squads, then BF1 and 5 had 4 man squads again. I personally never liked 4 man squads since I have a lot of friends to play with.
