Clans/Platoon system needs to be added ASAP with team swapping

We need to have clans added like we have in every battlefield and every game that is out there. The bottom part of ID cards works great for the location. The non-patriarchy ID but if in a clan says (tags) (clan name) with symbol. Clans are one of the biggest factors to community and making the game live. Just look at battlefield 4 and 3, the clans and milsims that bring players in and keep active counts going. As someone that runs a milsim, this is something we are hopeful for

  • It's pretty crazy not including persistence squads over 4 or even platoon tags on a game that supports 128 players. I’ve played on platoons/clans 100 players deep and you rarely get nights when you could populate the whole side of a 32-player team. So to put a cap on a game so big is ludicrous. IMO.

    @VOLBANKER_PC Honestly, even in battlefield 4, having 4 people playing together out of 64 doesnt change much and you want more people playing together, working as one. It helps your team and makes the fighting more impactful. Plus clans and milsims spend more time in their own server with other people. Look at bf4, one of the biggest things keeping it going are clans, milsims and groups of players. Battlefield isnt the same playing it alone and clans or not. people load in with stacks of 4. even if they dont add clans, your "issue wont leave" but i suggest getting a group of friends for a fireteam

    For us we use zello but honestly be nice to be able to do stuff again large scale with tags, recruit ect. Speaking on milsim community, we are all waiting for servers or portal to have ability we need like bf4 with a platoon system ect

    This goes back to the root of the problem. BF2042 was not made as a team game. None of those tools exist and even the scoring is barely made for any cooperation. 

    Bring back clans/platoons, squad management, server browser, persistent lobbies and servers.

    Clans ruin the team balance a lot of the time in BF1 for example. So no thanks to anything that helps clans play together.


    Wait.  So the crap show that we usually get when there are a bunch of randoms on both teams not helping one another or giving any care at all about the team objective/score is balance?

    Some of the best matches that I have played in BF1 were when there was a good mix of platoon players on both teams.  Which in my opinion is the kind of playing environment that a lobby system and match making in this series should be there to create for us all of the time.

  • If they are going to make clan stacks a thing again there needs to be an aggressive team balancer.

    Uncompetitive matches aren't fun, especially when you know the next match is going to be just as lopsided.

    Also any team swapping feature needs to have some restricions to prevent abuse (no switching to the winning team and no switching if the skill balancer determines it would upset the skill balance)
