Might fix some blueberry problems. Scotty sorts all the unassigned blueberries into squads, highest meta is squad leader. Game notifies squad leader to issue squad commands from time to time. What do y'all think? |

Blueberry becomes squad leader, what changes from is happening today?
Squad leader doesn't care about giving order, what changes from today?
Basing it on the meta level of equipment is meaningless. If a vet spawns in a "RUN TO THE POINT AND THROW UPLINKS!" Scout fit, they might be pushed down below a newer player who doesn't know how to issue orders.
This doesn't really change anything in my opinion. I think the best thing to do is to actually incentivize people fighting around the objective, such as allowing both sides to get the 20% bonus WP from the Objective Bonus. That would at least cause a larger congregation if only for the extra WP/SP.
It is still a decent idea though, to put people in squads. When I am playing alone, I will often get 2,000+ WP. If I were just in a squad of a bunch blueberries pulling about 600 WP average, that is a Major Warbarge Strike.

There would have to be a mechanism to urge the squad leader to issue commands, like an in game notification. Maybe the between match tip screen could display info about squad orders with frequency.
I might be using the word meta in the wrong context. Perhaps another player statistic would be better for randomly determining a squad leader. |

This changes nothing, blueberries won't give orders, nor would other blues follow them.

Perhaps a majority won't. But, even if just a percentage do, the game experience will improve. |

So you are implying squad increases intelligence and tactical prowess by 50 percent?

Oh. What were the big detractors? Was there any benefit at all?

No, I didn't imply anything of the sort. What made you draw such a strange conclusion? |

It doesn't fix the issue in matchmaking.
The problem with matchmaking is were getting organised squads who play together regularly using teamspeak and moving around the battle as a team.
if you lump random players together into squads we'll still have unorganised players fighting organised teams.

No, what I'm proposing won't fix matchmaking, but it might encourage new players to learn to play in squads. |

We had this in closed beta. Soraya is the only person I've seen that's against it. It literally hurts nothing and potentially leads to more players embracing team concepts.
