u guys need to fix the feature where it kicks u from battle while in ob screen. obviously the squad leader is not idle, he looking for targets. this is one of the dumbest features to date on this game. |

This is the first time i have heard of this.
You probably should have taken the afk warnings seriously since the game issues several of them i dont feel bad. You could have gone out of the map since you had no clue where to drop it and gone about business till you figured it out. |

Agreed. Sometimes you need time for your squad to light up targets, get into position, etc.
If the SL is waiting around for confirmation to press the red button why not wait on the overhead map?

Hell i've been kicked while sniping during a couple of dull games lol but i have noticed the warning signs when looking around the map for targets or waiting for scanner to spawn. even got it in the fitting screen while i was stocking a suit up. i was only buying 100 and it was having a go at me for 'being idle' not rest for the wicked that even in game i have a bloody woman nagging at me  |

If you are staying in the orbital screen so long that you get the warning notice in the corner, and I do quite a bit, then simply back out of the orbital screen, move a foot, and go back to the orbital screen. Again, if it's taking that long to find a target I'm sure you're not going to miss the perfect opportunity in the 5 seconds it takes to move your character a bit. |

That workaround is an option, but it's pretty annoying and shouldn't be necessary. Moving your cursor around the map looking for targets is more active than using a rubber band to make yourself run in a circle back in the redzone. |

He could leave the screen till his squad is ready and actually fight or get into a position himself. Also he could just wait. he did nothing for 3 minutes, thats too long just sitting doing nothing. Im not a blue berry and im not suggesting he drops it immediately, just that he does something during those 3 minutes instead of sitting still.

I wasn't in this particular squad - but I've squadded with Blue Waffle before. He's a good Squad Leader, so I'd guess he was probably communicating with his squad as opposed to "doing nothing". Remember, the orbital screen is more than just a targeting system for your strike; being in the orbital screen doesn't inherently mean you are doing "nothing" -- Good SL's will continue to dictate the flow of battle from the orbital screen. In fact, I'd argue that it's easier to command from the map menu than on the ground, as you have a bird's eye view of the entire battlefield and the ability to instantly counter enemy movements with orbital bombardment.
Anyways +1 to the idea. SL's shouldn't get booted while in orbital screen or need to drop the menu to "dance around" for a second to avoid idling out.

Anywho, as an HAV specialist, I spend a lot of time in the overview so I can track "targets of interest" for proper ambushes, and I know that feeling when the game starts yelling at you =\ |
