I am a little skeptical about the squad and the commander thingie. will it work well in public?

[Chandler]

nobody will probably use it, its probably used as much as the commander option was used in tribes/tribes2, it wont be mandatory like in natural selection

[Bone]

I know our public server will make use of it. If you are on a server where team play is not being encouraged, you should leave and find another. Our Desert Combat server is dc.frontlineformation.com and playing as a team is the only way for you to win there.

Considering the power of artillery strikes, it would be foolish to ignore the commander role. And squads are something we already use unoficially (using multiple channels in Teamspeak) so this looks like a great step forward.

I played Desrt combat like constantly....then i played something else for a while came back to DC and it stuttered worse than HL2, why cant i play DC Combat anymore?
