Not really, a solid 60% of people who cycle the same squad types use Tank squads, 20% aircraft squads and then maybe 15% assaulter squads, I have left 5% free there to cover the rest in case other people cycle those squads, I personally havent seen that last 5% mind you, at least not obviously.
So assuming, in all fairness only based off my own experiences, that 95% of the people who cycle the same squad types are doing so only to cheese the system and negatively impact the playing experience of the other players there, I think its safe to say, such a change would mainly only impact those who seek to go against the fun of the game.
Saying that, I do agree that infantry squads could be excluded and this could be limited to vehicle squads only. Even if I think that playing an assaulter squad followed by a rifle squad isnt some great torture that you make it out to be.
If you really mind people cycling tank squads, then you need to add a 2 or 3-minute timer for tank and airplane squads instead of destroying the freedom of infantry players.
We will get more and better squads, you won’t get the results you want. You will still encounter powerful squads of different types.
For infantry squads, everyone can do this, which is fair. It’s not like tanks or planes that require you to purchase more slots.
Please note the part about me saying for the third time now, I would be fine with this only applying to vehicle squads.
I dont get what you mean by your second point though, how will more and better squads cause an issue? I mean as long as I dont have to deal with the same guy for the umpteenth time still spamming practically the same squad, Im happy.
Because everyone will have more and better squads, not allowing them to use the same type of squads will not weaken their combat effectiveness at all.
A suggestion that cannot bring any help to balance and can only disrupt the gaming experience of different types of players is meaningless.
Devs tried to implement that and most of the community hated it because you can bypass it easily.
Do you think any of the limits would stop Soviets from abusing their smgs? I can bring 1x Assaulter (pps-42 x4), 1x paratroopers (pps-42 x6), guerilla (pps-42 x5) apc (3x pps-42). At br5 it could be even easier to bypass with Assault Engineers.
Original idea was to allowing 2nd squad spawn but only with premiums, yes devs wanted to force you to buy premium squads to bypass the limits. It could not work and never will, better to nerf PPS-42/43 and remove -10% dmg from body armors and also buff other classes so people would have incentive to play them.
Thanks for supporting my point there, yes, it wont reduce combat effectiveness, it will just stop unfun cycling of squads. I completely agree, Im glad we could see eye to eye on this.
It would stop nothing for me. At BR3 soviets i run different squads and still abuse their overpowered smgs but also DP-27 with RMN-50
Without considering the actual situation, most of the guys who want to add meaningless restrictions are campers. You’d better not become my teammate.
I mean yeah, removing the buff of body armour seems like a no brainer at this point, but yet here we are.
Still stand by my point though on vehicle squads, I think you yourself have proven how much of an issue that can be.
Not to mention, there is a large difference between paratroopers, guerrilla’s, APC and assaulter squads.
Para’s being very vulnerable on their way into the map.
Guerrillas lacking any long range AT.
APC being half the amount of SMG’s.
And Assaulters being the cream of the crop.
And then, after all of these are implemented, continue to demand an 800 fire rate and 6.8 damage submachine gun in BR2? A guy who will never be satisfied.
Eh I dont rate the DP that well, but yes the RMN 50 is an issue, imo it should be limited to mortarmen only.
Man, what sorta “Dont come to school tomorrow” type threat is that? Weak.
Not to mention, I doubt you could even find me if you were on the same team, since youd be too busy cycling aircraft or greyzone tanks.
You can’t even attack the target point, do you have the leisure to play other squads?Go enjoy all kinds of squads, you will only harm your teammates.
About who are you talking to? They can easily tweak FNAB-43 to have high rof but also lower it’s dmg to 6.7. It’s not like devs can’t use their head to balance the game.

Are you not able to use more than one squad type and still do well? All squads can attack the point?
Ohhhhh are you one of those guys who just run off to the side of the map and semi AFK while “stopping flankers”?
Then they probably won’t believe your endless roar.
What, are you planning to launch an attack with a sniper?That scene must be very funny.
I mean do you only have assaulters and snipers?
But for the record, snipers can assault too, in fact I do use them time to time to do so, normally when there is an abundance of people spamming MG’s from flanking windows of the objective.
