What I read is, we don't want to hurt someone's feelings because they get booted from a squad so we are not going to allow that option. Instead, we will make it more different for those that want to play together by having you create a new squad with a new reservation system.
What a joke. In all my years/hours playing this series of games I've never felt like the kick system was abused. Add this to the list of things that make us want to quit playing.
oh man, just another example of their incompetence.
[edit] I guess I should try to be constructive.
1. Put players into a public squad if they aren’t already teamed up from previous session and give players the options to create a squad. When creating squad give them option to make it public/private. Private squads should have option to kick/ban people in the squad for management purposes. Or even perhaps, create a sub squad. . It is a private squad after all.
2. if someone’s kicked find a squad for them to join. Perhaps use some intelligence to help pick the best squad. I.e
- squad with similar points per player/avg
- squad with complimentary classes.
- hell, even group any 1 player squads into a squad.
3. To promote clan play, if someone has a clan tag set, perhaps help facilitate clans by putting them clan members into clan squad. I.e [abc]-Alpha-Squad, [abc]-Beea-squad with options for perhaps alternate teams etc.
I dunno, this strikes me of simple thinking and completely out of touch with what battlefield was ever really about. Even less confidence this will ever be a game worth playing again.
