Just curious as I watch when the game is played....
Does anyone use squad tactics..?
Like, even tho people are using TS or other VOIP proggies I still notice its basically just chatter.
I know the games arent anything serious so I can expect that.
Just wondering if ST are ever used in matches or skrimz...
Kinda like " displacing, advancing foward 5 meters"
Or with a squad of 4, kinda have one of each class with each class having a specific job...
Recon takes point....assault runs behind 5 meter spread.....medic, and engi follow about the same, supporting eachother.
Just curious cuz when I am playing I can imagine a squad moving foward through the lines, working as one group "Set, fire, displace" Etc...
I'm new so if any of the stuff I post is stupid just tell me to shush haha

The best option would be to have a well rounded team/squad or perhaps even two "squads" that work in conjunction with each other. For instance, one team could be the fire team and the other the assault team (just one suggestion).
The team should coordinate movement, fire and actions and well as using each other to spawn (when appropriate and safe).
And, yes, communication during active engagements should be kept specific to task, but when it is general game place (like most nights on the servers) that is not going to be easy to control (people popping in and out, side conversations, Luke stopping in the check on things, etc). But, in an active match or other such event, then yes: chat should stay focused.
Anyway, I will be happy to "squad" with you any time and use fire team tactics

If you want some squad tactics you should check out or matches. We get very serious about the game then. (We do have a BFBC2 match comming up soon check the calendar.) During normal game play we are just having fun.

I would be interested in some squad tactics even during normal game play. Something organized would be nice. If I am around, give me a shout and I will join with whatever kit is needed. This lone wolf stuff is getting old..
