Talking WHile Commanding
Hi I was wondering if there is a way to talk to all squads instead of just the individuals. Thanks!

Re: Talking WHile Commanding
The button you use as an SL to talk to CO - this is the button used to talk to all squads as a CO.
The button you use as an SL to talk to your entire squad - this is the button used to talk to individual SLs when you highlight them in the CO menu.
(Holy hell I hope that's not the wrong way round, it's been a while since I've played)
Sorry I can't be more specific with buttons as I've remapped my controls a lot.Anger is a gift - Malcolm X

Re: Talking WHile Commanding
If you use the default key
V = Talk to specific squad / squads ( if more than one squad is selected )
B = Talk to all squads
note: please use B just in case the information is important for every squad. It quite annoying if you CO keeps talking and talking about things not important for you. Keep chat to a minimum cause SLs ( well at least I ) am most of the time busy talking to my squad or trying to concentrate of the game.

Re: Talking WHile Commanding
Another tip:
If you select (click) a squad and shift-click another, you'll select the squads you clicked and any squads in between.
i.e:
Alpha
Bravo <-- CLICK
Charlie
Delta
Alpha
Bravo
Charlie
Delta <-- SHIFT + CLICK
Alpha
Bravo
Charlie

B -- speak to all squad leaders.
V -- speak only to the squad leader you've selected (clicked on).
Squads are just like files/folders in Windows -- you can CTRL-click and SHIFT-click on them to select exactly what you want.Fight!

Good info but there are a few broken picture links making it a bit confusing.
