We cant play with friends - Bad squad system

Forum Discussion
Hello,
Paul Keslin said in that interview with AngryJoe (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZDfNY6DAoYs&t=) that Battlefront is a different game compared to Battlefield for example.
Now, the problem is that I cant play "directly" with my friend(s). We can meet us randomly on the battlefront but not more. And the "new" feature with the double Battlepoints dont affects the teamplay at all. You dont need to play togehter. You can spread out and can go in different directions and you still get double points after the ring is filled.
I really feel like I'm being fobbed off regarding to the teamsystem/squadsystem!
You should change/improve it. Thanks in advance.
Best regards

Community Admin@petazetas69 @EnmCrAzYKiLLeR Hi again, moving the post wasn't to lessen the prominence of the thread. Rather we just want to make sure the right kinds of discussions are in the right place, and in fact this board gets far more traffic than the bug board at this time. Keeping things structured in such a way helps with giving appropriate feedback to the studio.
There's a lot of great, constructive feedback in the thread, please keep it coming.
Hi @EA_David,
Thank you, but could you please answer to those questions please? It would be great to know if EA is working on this or not.
This problem is not new, it was in the beta and a lot of people reported it (people thought it was a bug in the beta version).
Could you please tell us if you are working on it?
What could we expect about this? A lot of people are complaining about this bad system in several forums and threads.
Please tell us if you are working on it and if so, when will be solved.

@petazetas69 Unfortunately these aren't questions I can answer. Such changes would likely be announced by the studio in a statement or by a developer on their own channels, but for me my hands are tied, sorry.
But i suppose you will contact the dev team with this, right? If not, which is the purpose of this forum?
And then, you could tell us something about this when you have the answer.
If not, how can we know if those problems arrive to the dev. team? Which is the way so they can know about those problems and solve it ASAP?
Thank you!
Hi
Yep. We just had a first go on this game on ps4 with friends and are immediately dissapointed with the squad approach. No fun in the team play since the people I can and want to talk to are not in the same team... dont know what were they thinking = (.
- After playing for almost a week. I have to say this problem is the icing on the cake. I understand you don't want this game to be Battlefield 1 but come on that squad system works. I have 5 friends with the game and only once have we played on the same team.....Bring back squads for this game. I can handle on the other issues if I can at least play with people I know.
i have been playing those days and its a problem.
In galactic assault is a chaos, you cant play with your friends at all.
The fact that EA moved this to the bug forum shows how little their community managers understand this game. This isn't a bug. It's a terrible design decision that ruins team play. Seriously fix this and I'll come back. But in the meantime, I'll just play Battlefront 2015 or Battlefield 4, because this is a terrible broken mess. If you want to play with friends, this is NOT the game to do that.
