Sort of I think. Like, doing squad shit makes your specialisations turn on, dying knocks it down a bit (squad wiping knocks it down a ton). Or something like that it seems.
Might encourage people to work together, though you'd think straight up squad point bonuses would have done that.

Basically. There's nothing inherently bad about that, though.

Umm I can't tell you how many times I've encouraged my squads to stop using 4 squad sprints at the same time

What if it multiplys in the game? What if having 5 men with squad sprint makes the entire team run as fast as a humvee driving at full speed?
[QUOTE=RichyZ;41863659]and so we come to getting killstreaks in bf
unless im reading it wrong[/QUOTE]Teamscorestreaks is more apropriate, seeing as team assist actions (reviving, healing, resupplying, repairing, capturing flags etc) work towards it, not kills.

That engineer looks awesome
I still want my 6 man BF2 squads back with all the original classes.

Every BF2 class is possible to set up with this system and then some.

Just play Project Reality, it's better than any other Battlefield that will be released any time soon, it seems.
Even though Battlefield 4 is shaping up to be, probably an amazing game. Bad experiences around BF3 have warded me off of it.
[QUOTE=SatansSin;41870948]Just play Project Reality, it's better than any other Battlefield that will be released any time soon, it seems.[/QUOTE]
Project Reality is a great mod but the time investment it requires (hour long matches, 90 second respawns, 5 minute treks to the action because you need to be Limited Class X to use vehicle Y) means that it doesn't really compare with a regular Battlefield game to me.

Except you can't get 6 man squads anymore which sucks
i miss BF2's non-tactic00led soldiers
[QUOTE=Da Big Man;41866188]Umm I can't tell you how many times I've encouraged my squads to stop using 4 squad sprints at the same time[/QUOTE]
Yeah this might actually stop that shit from happening. More annoying if someone doesn't even bother running a specialisation, at least there's a small chance they might run a useful one if they were.
[QUOTE=kill3r;41873776]Except you can't get 6 man squads anymore which sucks[/QUOTE]
You can get 5 man squads, I doubt they wouldn't go to 6.
As long they keep fucking vanilla servers im fine
I quitted BF3 after 10 hours on it becouse EVERY SINGLE SERVER became MEAT GRINDER 24/7 or 10KKKKK TICKETS!
couldnt find a single server that was just vanilla no hyper realism or grinding..just vanilla

Then set your filters up right and you can exclude all that shit. BattleLog is really powerful if you bother to actually try.
[QUOTE=RichyZ;41875353]i set my filters to na only with only close quarters and default bf3, and it seems every map save for metro has only 1 server with like 5 people in them[/QUOTE]
I'm not 100% positive how BL works out what servers to display, but if you remove the ones you don't want (filter out custom game rules, stick things like map rotation on, etc.) it should start bringing up more and more servers that fit that.
Though depending on your internet connection the server browser can suck ass, on my old line I would rarely find a single populated server.
I really hope we'll be able to look in the scoreboard and see what other classes my teammates are playing as. Also I really hope we will not be able to spawn on just ANY squad member. This helps break the team up. We should only be able to spawn on the squad leader.
Jeez, Battlefield 2142 did pretty much everything right except for the overpowered grenades. I really wish they'd make a true sequel to that.
[QUOTE=RichyZ;41875232]i miss being able to easily identify someone's class based on their silhouette alone
wait no thats actually there because of the 'tactic00l'ification[/QUOTE]there was absolutely nothing wrong with how the silhouettes worked in BF2; you see a guy with a backpack and a big gun and it's a Support dude; you see a guy with a ghillie suit and it's a Sniper; funky hat, light gear and a landmine on the back means it's an Engineer; rocket launcher on the back says it's an Anti-Tank and so on; you just have to not be a hyperactive twitch shooter and look at the target for more than 0.01 milliseconds to identify it. funny thing, most of the time i couldn't tell who was who in BF3 - altho the Recons did stand out from the rest with their extra light loadouts - while in BF2 i had no problem telling whether i should prepare to be dolphin-dived by a Support or take cover from a Saiga-12 barrage. and the 'modern' "i slap 500 pouches on myself and cover my face with a mask always" kind of soldier look just makes me cringe really hard no matter how true to reality it may be, and the extremely personalized gear a lá Tactical Operators Follow No Standards only makes things worse but that's just me
I see the recon still looks like a little bitch.
Haven't been following this much lately but did they at least make the recon a bit useful this time?
[QUOTE=kill3r;41873776]Except you can't get 6 man squads anymore which sucks[/QUOTE]I much prefer 5 man squads when everyone can spawn on everyone.

Well, if you went some insane K/D ratio like 70 during one single round (and life) with a tank in BF3, you get nothing during the round really, except medals as you endlessly level up with maxed-out shit. Then in the match-end report, the medals you earned get thrown at your faces all at once.
