Allow squad leaders to ban players from their squads - At least for non Default squads

[rocky estuary]

Recently I've taken to trying to lead. I'm not a great leader but it seems that no one else wants to do it.
One of the core features of a tactical squad is following objectives. So many of the members of the squad refuse to follow the objective markers. The obvious solution to this is to kick them (which I do). 2 minutes later they rejoin the squad and still continue not to follow objectives.
It would be great If, as well as being able to kick people from the squad I could also ban them so they could not return to the squad for the rest of the round.

is this not the case when you kick someone? huh, always thought it was

making objectives more useful would encourage people to cap them

[silver valley]

They are useful already, but for whatever reason the UI doesn't show the tickets per faction and doesn't give an overview of which points are captured and aren't.

so tell me why i should cap an objective and not go for kills, 4 kills are equal to a cap, and kills can be easily taken, objectives dont actually hold a good vantage point, and the spawn restrictions make it so that one dude can easily prevent spawning at that objective, vehicles do exist at objectives, but offensive vehicles should spawn too (tanks apcs etc) there is basically no reason to go cap.

[silver valley]

Ticket bleeding. That's the main way to win.

[marble pier]

sure, but from a regular players stand point, who cares about the objective?, defending it gives nothing (maybe add the conquest control thing form bf4), capping it gives a pitiful amount of score, and half the time you cant spawn at them

there are good objectives, done well, c on valley, and c on wakistan are fought over because it gives a vantage point directly in front enemy spawn

but most objectives that are not c are basically forgotten about

[silver valley]

Highly contested points are like that because they're in the middle of the map on the frontline

and why would you want to win? getting those extra kills is way better for your progression

[silver valley]

And people already cap points

[silver valley]

Do you want to lose?

[vivid maple]

I prefer getting 20 more kills than winning the game

which is bad game design

[marble pier]

well yeah, winning gives nothing, just a slight bonus, but that can be easily exchanged for kills

[silver valley]

That's on you

Winning gives victory, that's the whole point of playing a war game

[marble pier]

no its just common sense, why go objective when you can kill?, kills give more xp yk.

[vivid maple]

ye but victory does basically nothing

[silver valley]

If you two play for grinding, sad to hear but not my business, people already cap points which means I'll always have points to fight for

[vivid maple]

beside with 250 you can't even say that it was your work that won the game

[silver valley]

I already have a job, I play to win, not to have a second job

[marble pier]

ill take bf4 vs bbr, in bf4 points can give the conquest control thing, and it has small matches compared to bbr, in bf4 you can just rush points and you will be rewarded, but in 127v127 bbr, its really hard to balance it properly, points can turn into firefights, and most people just spawn on points closer to the action and fight, there is no reason to get the other points, because most of the time both points on each side are used as camping spots for tanks and snipers, you will be likely killed going to these points, and theres no point holding them as most people will just go from spawn straight to the point and eliminate everyone, conquest is really poorly done in this game, and gamemodes like rush or domination encourage points more, there isnt a valid reason for capturing points in conquest.

the best solution is to make the points the main part of the match

[vivid maple]

ye

[rocky estuary]

Nope, they just have to wait a minute and then they can come back

[silver valley]

As a temporary solution you can lock the squad to prevent people from joining, until this is addressed

[rocky estuary]

I know, but i don't want to exclude people who might actually want to join in with the squadplay.

I realise that doesn't leave me with many options
