Bigger Squads - Conversations
Does anyone else wish Squads were bigger than 4 people?
Especially considering the size of teams in this game, finding any friends who couldn't fit into your squad will be a nightmare.

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
@Stew360 calm down with the 'WE NEED' bud.
4 man squads is to low but for many 5 fits nice and is my preffered number. I'm not opposed to larger squads, just don't think it is essential, especially if randoms get involved.

I’m probably in the minority (edit: maybe not after seeing other replies lol), but squads should be 8 people. It would evenly split the squads for each team and would be a larger squad. I’m one of those players coming from games with larger squads, like Hell Let Loose, and I think it works pretty well there.
Especially here on console where it’ll be near impossible to get other players working together, especially if there are no plans for proximity chat. 8-man squads just make sense for a lot of reasons. It’s an even split, more friends in the same squad (my group of friends considers this when choosing games to play, say if we have more than 4 people), and I think it would help squads of more capable players have a larger impact on the match.
@Trokey66 You clearly never ever have played any 128 to 256 players games to say that have you ...
This isnt BF4 this will be 128 players in bigger maps with way more vehicules and all
Not having the possibility to have larger squads and dedicated organization chanels and tools for squads lead etc.. to team work will make every games
A farming only KDR stats padding fest with snipers everywhere and where NO ONES care about objective and it will make no difference
that youre 4 to 5 men squads even exist in the game you will win or loose by cheer luck or loose by bad luck
Tell yourself that having a 8 men squads in BF2042 128 players match will be the equivalent of having a 4 player squad in BF4 64 players match
I played planetside 1 and 2 , MAG on ps3 with 128 to 256 players and 8 players squads was a bare minimum ... Also to prevent cluster i already made it clear we could make 4 players fireteam whithin squads of 8 for Free chat and for respawn but lobby must be 8 to 16 to matchmake with
- @Stew360 What happens if you don't have 8 friends on that session?
What happens when half your mega squad are randoms?
In these cases "A farming only KDR stats padding fest with snipers everywhere and where NO ONES care about objective and it will make no difference" could very well still occur.
As long as randoms exist, the above is likely to occur, I hope it doesn't but let's be real about it.
Just a quick question though, we're did I say I was against 8 man squads?- @Trokey66 What will happen if you dont have friends ? You do you thats what happen , but at least allowing peoples to have 8 to 16 players lobby ensure we have a possibility to work toward objective and win the game even if 40 out of 64 dont care about objectives . A 4 players squad can make a difference to win in a 12 vs 12 or in a 16 vs 16 .. But when you start with 64 players match it already become difficult to make any meaningfull difference then in a 128 players match its totally ridiculous to think that 4 players will achieve anything unless the other team is filled with easymode bots
