Is there any good reason NOT to do this?

Interesting idea. That could be good and bad.

Are we limited to the number of squads? We could have 64 one man squads.... would someone join a squad to appease the rule but then not work with the squad? Just food for thought... but I do like the idea.

There should definatly be a rule to be in a squad.

Running around on your own doesnt help anyone.

**Vulcan** · 06-12-2005, 09:47 PM

there is every reason, this game is Horrid if people aren't playing the way it's supposed to be played. If it were me i'd make it so you had to choose a squad to join the game.

It was absolute chaos on the server when it opened up so public people could join.

yea its a good idea all you have to do is find someone you get along with and form a squad. It should be required though for another couple weeks after the real game comes out.

Absolutely! If you are not in a squad, you cannot communicate.

iceman369 · 06-12-2005, 10:37 PM

in that case you have to in a squad in order to join TG server

Iamevil · 06-12-2005, 10:47 PM

We need to make sure people in squads communicate as well, I was just in 3 different squads and none of them communicated or worked together, it seems only the TG and TGS people actually do that.

I dont think squad required is what we really need to push, we need to push mic required. Push mic required and squads will form up automatically because anyone with a mic knows the advantage of having one, especially in battlefield 2.

Mic required won't fly.

Trust me. I've been down that road.

**RGM-79N_GM_CUstom** · 06-13-2005, 02:16 AM

I don't think we should require mics we don't on the NS server or CS server or any TG server I have been on so far why start now.

All for the squad requirement...

...also would be for a autoban on any ratbastard helicopter pilot who thinks it cool to hover low over a flag to capture the base, versus actually landing and doing it the correct way. (Sorry, people were ticking me off with this "tactic" all night.)

If I find an enemy helicopter low at the ground, he gets a facefull of grenade launcher. What I would love to see would be some system to vote people off squads, and out of squad leader position.

**kormendi** · 06-13-2005, 03:09 AM

I think squads should be a requirement. But there should be a squad for people who want to go off on their own (if that type of player is helpful to the game (snipers?)).

A squad requirement helps control those who are either new (and dont want to learn) or don't want to play as a team.

**Wyzcrak** · 06-13-2005, 03:37 AM

I think hovering to capture a flag is perfectly valid.
