That's likely not coming back on a whole-team level as I doubt the game is technically capable of that level of additional complexity. But there are a ton of smaller changes they can make to promote more cooperation/squad/teamplay in general.
Things like the pips on your loadout screen showing you what gear your squad is rolling with is a good example.
Another example would be adding back "legacy spotting" (like how it used to work where your spot tagged the person visually and didn't just tag the location you spotted them) for squad-only (not the whole team).
Additional XP for squad-assists and actual vehicle-assist kills, since even if you did 95% of the damage to a vehicle if someone else destroys it you get nothing other than the part damage XP.
Make more vehicles act as mobile spawn locations so there's more incentive to position them smartly and keep them alive (you could spawn on more vehicles in previous BF games).
Basically, sweeten the pot in terms of rewarding actual teamplay activities to promote and reward this kind of behavior, as was largely done in most previous BF titles.

@Necromantion I'm ruining the franchise by advocating for fun and skill based mechanics?
Thanks for showing me the error of my ways.
Your proposal of throwing points at the problem is probably the right way to go.

Yeah, I don't understand why they do for infantry but not vehicles?
Seems like it would be easy to implement.
- 4 years ago@AngrySquid270 No, your lopsided view on anything that is vehicle related is the mentality that has had people crying about vehicles when they refuse to do anything to counter vehicles.
Instead of soflamming, spawning a wildcat, getting in another jet or heli, getting an m5 or stinger they come to the forums to say X vehicle is OP.
Meanwhile I say, lets bring back cohesiveness and teamwork rather than a free for all mentality and you think theres something wrong with it when it worked perfectly fine in previous battlefield games from BFBC2 - BF4- UP_Hawxxeye4 years agoLegend

Too many consider the enemy vehicles to be something they should not have to go out of their way to counter with the gadgets the game gives us.
The Jets do have the usual issue of being able to ignore ground based counters but that is another story.
Each time someone on youtube or here says that "we have too many tanks on the map that dominate" I am like "Duuuuuude are we even playing the same game?" Unless the tank is escorted by Irish infantry with APS gadgets and repair tools, it can just be barraged by m5 rockets, Sundance grenades and C5 on its own or attached to jeeps and drones.

Getting locked on to in aircraft every moment you get out of spawn isn’t fun but you don’t want to hear it. All you do is whine about how your handheld rocket can’t instantly destroy aircraft worth tens millions to produce.

Its almost as though he doesnt understand that it should actually take teamwork to take out vehicles
