What he said :thumb:

It was obvious in last night's play that we do need to pay more attention to calls of 'player down'. Getting our colleagues up should be a priority but in the heat of battle sometimes the call itself is missed or too much emphasis is placed on killing. There are times when you simply have to kill a threat before you can revive someone but bringing another player back into the fight makes much more sense.

Agreed, Peanuts heroic leap from the truck and mass heal under fire was the difference between completing the mission and failure.
The two squad set up is a bit of a pain though, as occasionally I would have no idea I was standing ten feet from a wounded team mate who was in the other squad,  until they shouted out and guided me in. I guess no HUD display for the other squads position is realistic but a bit of a pain for a medic.

Yeah 1 squad would be better, no doubt. For other things, I think that we are learning a lot as we go along. New ways of doing things, new approaches to the team structure and so on. Its brilliant :)

I'm off work today so will have a play with the map and move all players to one squad if you like? Nothing lost if it doesn't work, worth a try

Oh yes please ... and more vehicles at spawn (for late arrivals and accidental re-spawns) would be the icing on the cake :thumb:

We built on the work you have done moulding us into a deadly killing machine, and stand on the shoulders of giants, oh great and masterful one

Yes please, all in one squad and extra vehicles at spawn would be superb.

Really enjoyed last night.

Done.

I have moved all players to 1 squad and added 2 additional players just incase we have more people join us.  So we have 1 10 man squad.  I have also added about 8 more quads and about 6 or so more machine gun truck thingys at spawn.

OB I have emailed you the amended .pbo file :)
