Realism step up suggestion
Hello squads,

I dont know if this is the right forum for suggestion so please feel free to move it if necessary.


I love squad. i like it for the realism it brings and i personally find that the harder it gets the better the experience. Maybe i am the minority here but i love the tactical part of it more than the actual action part. I dont mind back-capping, mortar duty, recon, supply runs etc.
In any case i was thinking of a couple of suggestions to enhance the realism and force players to be more tactical and organised and basically more ...SQUAD :)

So please tell me what you think if the following would apply:

1) make local chat heard equally from enemies in the vicinity. It only makes sense that when you get in a hot zone you should be more stealthy and enforce a more "radio silence" policy on the squad. It is realistic and would add maybe a fun interaction with call signs (Thunder/ flash) kind of deals.
Thoughts?

2) ok this one might be a bit too much to stomach for most young-lings out there but what about....making the map......static.
Meaning that all movements are drawn by the SL according to information passed on by command chats etc. That way you should know where you should be. where enemies should be etc. It might force people to act as a squad and follow orders to the letter ...realistically.
For example you see or hear a vehicle and what people do is check the map and see if its friendly. But what if you actually should call all squads and ask if anyone is operating in the area in question. I know it adds extra work for commanders and SLs but i think it would make people need to communicate more and relay information more accurately.

So what do you think?
