We're not hiding on some uber-secret servers you know. Reality Teamwork(Currently "RT Mumble"), Tactical Gamer, and more, they're right up there on your server list, just join.The only difference between those and other servers is simply that squads try to communicate with each other to accomplish an objective. All people have to do is communicate, via text, via a commander, via TS, via mumble. That is all that has to happen. If people on a server aren't communicating then obviously you're going to have issues, but in case you didn't notice this mod is all about teamwork, it isn't meant to reward people for running around on their own just trying to kill stuff, which is why you get penalized for that behavior.
Don't worry I noticed this is about teamwork, unfortunately it is very rare that a whole team is capable of cooperating. Although it does happen, it is not enough to warrant this forced system of cooperation that will ultimately fail. Teamwork was a possibility at the squad level -- at the team level, it is very remote.


What do you actually expect? That you can just run straight into enemy fire and then just respawn 50m away? The battle, the gameplay, it relies on the team, not just individual squads, and rally points promote squad centric behavior, which is not conducive to team behavior, which wins battles.
If you have a cooperating team. Either the rally point or the FOB system would work. FOB development came naturally in .8; unfortunately, it is very rare to have a cooperating team. It is far more likely to have a cooperating squad. I have not yet seen any signs that FOB-centric game play has improved whole team cooperation - just frustration at FOB raping.

If your team doesn't cooperate, build FOBs, communicate with each other, perform the necessary tasks for you to advance, then you should walk 2000m to your objective, because running around playing Rambo doesn't win ****. It's as simple as that.
We would do that during .8 anyway. .9 just destroys the squad.

The Squadplay is destroyed now. You does not really need to create a squad. why? All can spawn without any leader on a FB or in the base and walk alone. All players can/will or must go their own way. If they are in a squad or not makes no difference. They walk alone, with or without squad.

People always say " Go to *blank* server, they always have good teamwork there."
The objective should be to have all servers with good teamwork, but I guess that's easier said than done. But there's not a whole lot Reality Teamwork and Tactical Gamer are doing differently that makes their servers always brimming with 64/64 players.

I guess this is a different topic, though. Just my 50 cents on what you guys seem to be discussing.
And by the way, I think the new Rally Point system works quite well. Insurgency maps can be somewhat annoying, but the lack of rally points overall decreases the constant action and makes it a lot more exciting when you eventually do get into a firefight.
