Anyone else get the feeling a lot of times your teammates are too stupid to work as a team unless they are in a squad and someone is holding their hand and guiding them on what to do? |

If you want teamwork than read up on the lore and enlist in the faction that you favor the most. That, or join a corporation who participates in Planetary Conquest.
Sad but true; Public Contracts are filled with players who shouldn't be playing an FPS and AFKers. The only amount if teamwork you'll see in it (from your team-mates) are multipule people assisting the enemy in depleting your clones.

Even when I'm doing FW I feel this sometimes. I'll search for squads for AFW in other channels when PIE Ground Control gets quiet, and the guys I play with think just because they are PC players they don't need to talk orders or even flow squad orders, thatthey are simply better. Of course this leads to a full 16 q-sync getting stomped. And they are too high and mighty to take advice from someone who doesn't play PC.
But seriously, there is little chance of working as a team if you dint have someone guiding everyone and everyone else actually listening. Dust has way too many moving pieces involved to simply assume everyone is on the same page. You need to talk and guide others.

I played logi for most of my first year exclusively, so I'm used to supporting the players around me squad or not. Also keeping an eye on the chevrons around me helps me not get flanked, or snuck by scouts as often. I'm one of the very few who try and keep the blue wall intact during offensive maneuvers.

Sometimes I wonder if I'm playing with actual people or sea cucumbers.
Just the idiocy I witness sometimes.
The worst is FW matches where you're entire team decides to defend the only objective you're team currently holds while the MCC's health ticks down.
There are other goddamn objectives! You can go and hack them! And there's no one at them!
I try to hack the world in FW, but I can only do so much while the rest of my team repeatedly walks into a meat grinder.
FIRE UP THE HEAVY MEAT GRINDER! WE'RE HAVING CLONE BURGERS TONIGHT, BOYS!

Definition of teamwork: "great some 1 else is doing it so i can go back to redline sniping!"
Bright is the opposite of dark! Who would have thought of that?!

Best thing to do here Aero is to tell them "We are playing this like a PC". One of us steps up and acts as FC for the squads (Typically me if I'm in one of the squads, although we have multiples that can do it)
When Minmatar go into Q-syncs, the first thing we do is size up the team and map.
When we spawn, we determine what points we want to control and who's going where.
Then we just give live updates as we go. "They're taking A, we need to push C NOW", or "Guys we can't lose C, just take 3 guys and sit on the point"
Then call out people who don't talk on comms as you play. Every now and then I have to ask "Who let a whole squad into Charlie and told nobody?" When we see it flip and go to reinforce. Happens less often as the squads get more and more used to running with each other.
Comms in our channel is actually pretty on point in games. In between games is crazy though. We get so off topic. It's great though, we really are starting to feel like a Militia. Rag-Tag and all that jazz.

I hate to say this, but we had a saying in Battlefield 3 that carries over to every FPS I've ever played.
"Never expect blueberries to do ANYTHING short of providing convenient distractions to the enemy."
Which translates to "When in doubt, do it yourself"
Another good comparison is that they're like the creeps from League of Legends. They spawn, walk in a straight line to the closest objective and try to kill the first thing they see. Anticipate how they play and use this to your advantage (Blues make great distractions and cannon fodder. In battlefield, we used to let blues take blind corners for us. Better them than us.)
This is why playing with a squad is so dang beneficial. Yeah, blues are stupid, but if you work together as a squad, you can pull off some pretty amazing things. Let the blues zerg and distract, while you take the important points and hold them.

It is human nature, especially when we do not know each other. It is the "somebody should call the police" thing but the person doesn't think to call the police. "We need to hack the objective. Why isn't anyone going for the objective?" when that person might not exactly be going for the objective.
Also, remember this: someone else is crying about blueberries on your team and, yes, they mean you. "But I am top WP!" Doesn't matter; you are the blueberry to them. It is why I always get a kick out of the "yeah, we hate them damn blueberries" without any sense of irony.
