Should squad capacity be increased from 6 to 8 or 10? Maybe 6 is a little too low. I hear that marines have 13 in a squad.

No 6 is good dont change it

I think it's a good idea for the larger maps. On the 16 player per side maps 6 is adequate, as you can just think of the squads as fire teams and the commander as a squad leader.

As it is a 6 man squad is hard to control unless you are all working on the same page and moving on foot or multiple vehicles. Hard to keep people together with the vehicle seating and such, need 2 HMMWV's to move long distances alot of times, and when you do get a squad that works together, usually nobody else works with you..... kinda sucks

If there was a way to group two "squads" (fire teams) together under a kind of "sub commander" (the squad leader) who could give orders to both those teams that would be ideal, but I don't know if it's possible. The team leaders could give their own orders, too, and if there were conflicts the squad leader's orders would take precedent.

I dont see much difference from that and the commander taking control over two squads like it currently works.

Its not like commanders or squadleaders have too much work on their shoulders, dont really have to divide it up further.
