Rumor – Are Squads Coming Back to Battlefield 4?

MP1st - Squads may be returning to Battlefield 4, according to recent reports.

SolidDuck3679d ago

Well I freakin hope so. It was so dumb it wasn't in 4.

Detoxx3679d ago

There are squads in 4.

This is about the pre-squad up function on the menu.

Mr_cheese3679d ago

Annoys me how you can't squad up with a friend. It's really hit and miss if you end up on the same team when you join their game, very annoying.

3-4-53678d ago

What are you talking about cheeze?

I've never NOT been able to play with friends.

* Heres HOW:

* Friend #1, finds a game, clicks on it and enters.

* On your friends list, it will pop up and show that your friend is in game.

ALL of you then join that game.

CREATE YOUR OWN group once in there. ( Alpha,Bravo,Charlie)

* And that way, 5 of you can be in the same squad.

IF ALL SQUADS ARE FULL, CREATE A NEW ONE.

This took me and my friends all of 2 minutes to figure out.

The biggest disappointment in bf4

BeastModeYMOB3678d ago

I can finally get my friends in on the action w/o me killing them!

venom063678d ago

you can squad up with friends... tell your friends to join your damn squad... it aint rocket science... people whining over nothin...

deadie3678d ago (Edited 3678d ago )

With a lot of unneccessary hassle yes.
Especially if you play with more than 2 ppl.

The so called "whining" is very justified in this case.

anesthesique3678d ago

Mate we're 5 people on the menu looking for a server to join, that we can all be in the same team and squad, and it never really goes that way. Someone will be on the other team, or our squad will be split into two/three different squads with random people. We just want to instantly join and play as a squad, not spend 10 minutes of foreplay before we can actually spawn.

When one of your biggest selling points and advantages to other games is squadwork, you need to have this feature in. Especially if it was on the previous game.

anesthesique3678d ago

Never understood why they removed such a useful feature in the first place, hopefully it will be added in the game. Right now trying to squad up and play with your friends is a nightmare.

Battlefield 1, Hardline, BF4 Servers Are Being Taken Offline by Cheaters; EA Silent on Issue

Cheaters & hackers have been causing grief on Battlefield 1, Hardline & BF4 servers, with nonstop DDoS attacks among other things. Unfortunately, EA has remained silent about it.

-Foxtrot758d ago

Course they are silent, they are hoping people flock to 2042

gamesftw250757d ago

Maybe it was a inside job then haha.

jeromeface757d ago

wouldnt be the first time, titanfall 1+2 anyone?

PapaBop757d ago

Not even if they paid me.. EA always do this with old games with less money potential, if this was Ultimate Team, they'd address and sort it faster than stories could spread. Why invest time in their products when they will just dump it in the following years? Then again EA never could see the forest for the trees.

Inverno757d ago

I imagine after those games were given out for free a couple months back through Amazon, anything that makes people go to 2042 is a plus for them

XiNatsuDragnel758d ago

They want people to go on 2042. My theory

excaliburps757d ago

Nah. I think they can't do anything about it or they want to sink money into fixing it.

Pudge102888757d ago (Edited 757d ago )

EA owns all BF servers so yes, they can do something about it but they refuse to because they dont want ppl playing their old games instead of the new one. Its EA we’re talking about here

pr33k33757d ago

if this happened in 2042, they'd have something to say. which is weird, considering battlefield 1 has more players on steam right now.

Pudge102888757d ago

Its so obvious that EA is doing this or hired ppl to mess up the games so that we’d be forced to have just 1 Battlefield working.

FPS_D3TH757d ago

Honestly it’s probably the devs themselves. They did an update to bf4 way back that kinda made assault rifles doo doo in hopes that people would flock to BF1 cuz BF4 was too perfect

There's a bunch of great shooters on gamepass; both legacy and new.

A recommendation I have is a work in progress preview title called Anacrusis. It's a lot of fun, and has a cool aesthetic.
