Why four squad members instead of five?

So every squad could be full.

Though if that were their only concern they could have just made the game 120 players that could be divided into 4, 5 or 6 player squads.

The number 4 for parties of friends is present in online games for quite some years now.

I have no idea why. Must have something to do with some statistics being made.

@SAMURI_FAPBecause it's the same as the amount of people in squads for Battlefields 3, 4, 1, and V?

They were all squads of 4.

BF4 had 5 men fireteams, BF2 six men fireteams. I forgot BF vietnam or 1942, I don't even remember if squads were a thing honestly.

@SAMURI_FAP

I think most of us would appreciate a bigger squad size, including myself.

Cause if we wanted to be with less people (like only two friends in a squad) then we could simply lock it as private after the friends joined and therefore it would stay smaller anyways.

But unfortunately it's currently on 4 MAX, and will be like this at launch.

Who knows, maybe they listen fo multiple feedbacks and changeit later on. 😉

I do not think that most in a team even care about being in a squad.

So the insistence with the 4 man squads is just dividing friend groups into more squads

maybe it is customizable within portal, I mean idk could be a thing.

maybe they could implement / come up w some kind of  "squad link" system 

otherwise I'd say .... Hazard Zone and mathemagical equations, also I have no friends so I am no help here sorry lol
