    Already posted to this thread, thanks for finding the original post on the UK forums though!
    Its a great idea for what the UI should look like.

    Edit: He has done a second mock up to improve upon the first one as well here. If only they could make it look similar!

    Great stuff!

    Would be perfect if, instead of 3/4, 4/4, etc in the squad counts, it was 3/6, 4/6, etc.

    This would be amazing. The commo rose someone did up also looks 100000 times better than what we have.

    I'm not sure why Dice decided to do things the way they did but here's to them maybe taking some advice and fixing some stuff.

    Comments are all well and good. But are they just saying "we are going to put this on the fridge" or "we might have to work on this"

    Amazing to me that after BF2, BF2142... with their respective and similar functioning squad management systems. Why didn't they just port that forward, and modernize it?

    I've stopped asking that question. The more I think of a reason why, the more crazy I become.

    Yes. But it's encouraging that there are people at Dice who think it's good, no?
