Why (almost) No One Uses Squad Commands?
Since day 1 I have noticed that in Battlefield 2042 most (like 95%) of squad leaders do not issue squad commands. They do not react to command request and ignore chat. Why is this? Would be great if ...

There's also no incentive to give squad commands. To my knowledge there is no 'order followed' bonus for the leader nor squad mates.
Honestly Dice Sweden has watered down the significance of squads and squad play so much that they could easily remove them and the game would largely be the same. All they are now are a couple of free spawn points.
I'm not saying playing as a squad isn't effective. It is but it isn't being facilitated by the game. There is no machinations in the game to support, incentivise or force squad play to the point where folks running third party communication programs with their buddies have a significantly larger advantage than they should if the game did a better job at providing for squad based gameplay.
