So, the people that cried all over how the premium squads were too powerful and all (even though they weren’t) are gone now, can we get our normal premium squads back now?

honestly they were overnerfed since some of the issues where related to the perks themselves like 35% being a large issue when moscow was the only campaign since it would made you largely immune to a rifle shot to the body

- They aren´t… because those squads indeed were too powerful back then.
- Yes, nerf they received was overkill (in terms of manpower) which was NOT requested (before someone brings it up again).
- Sure, restore their manpower back to 7, but they must reflect normal squads in composition… no more 7 SMGs/LMGs running in the same squad

I’d like the squads to be able to add engineers and other stuff again.
There are better weapons out now, so it shouldn’t do any harm.

In my opinion lmg squads could be reduced to 3 gunners like regular squads if those receive other soldiers, but that can be hard to do cause those was advertised as 4 gunners group

Honestly, does it matter if its 4? The only Prem LMG squads are basicly Battlerifle squads with limited ammunition
If we leave it the way they are Darkflow might be more inclined to listen to our request, it makes their decision easier because they don’t want to actively remove soldiers from people’s squads
What about giving them regular research tree, except it would already be pre-research and players can choose their own composition? Of course, options available shouldn´t be different from regular squad.
I agree on this one. Look at the damage you can do in Normandy with brownings. I think that more manpower as compensation would be acceptable enough.

That of course would have to be implemented

That might also require new topic so devs won´t get wrong ideas about possibly misleading titles. (Seriously, last thing I want to see back in the game are CBT squads in their full former glory)

I’d love that :^) Other people would love that. Your opinion isn’t made of solid gold.

That former glory is long gone with the perk overhaul in my opinion

Perks weren´t the only major problem. Imagine 7 (eventually) maxed assaulters/ gunners running around in a single squad… never again.

The biggest problem back then was that noone was high level enough and everyone used those premium squads, so whoever didn’t use em fell on their nose pretty quickly against the superior maxed out squads.
I think we can give them back their manpower somewhat now considering we have a lot of high level players around now to balance it out, it might even give newer players a bit of an advantage now.
Neither did we have a lot of experienced players back then, so it was kind of a shitfest

Yes, but not if it should be same composition as CBT. That would be a big mistake imho. Making premium squads reflect regular squads in composition would help with their versatility, and they would fit in the game better that way.

Comrades if we all unite i think they might notice our wishes, we just need to post the same question over and over again “Could we get our CBT Squads back?”. I believe in us brothers we can do this. Everyone of us should post this topic, i will do it too

Ight, I’ve seen all 5 topics made by the same users that encouraged and replied to each other and since this forum is “public property”, I’ll share my opinion aswell.
In my view, the best solution is this:
- premium gunner squads: maximum 3 gunners + 4 non-gunners (maximum 7 troopers, 2 engineers, 2 radio operators, 1 sniper, 1 bomber, just like the default gunner squads).
- premium assaulter squads: maximum 4 assaulters + 3 non-assaulters (maximum 7 troopers, 2 engineers, 2 radio operators, 2 bombers, 1 sniper, 1 gunner, just like the default assaulter squads).
- premium trooper squads: maximum 9 troopers, 2 engineers, 2 radiomen, 1 sniper, 1 bomber, 1 assaulter, 1 gunner, just like the default trooper squads.
- premium engineer squads: maximum 6 troopers, 6 engineers, 1 assaulter, 2 bombers, 1 radio operator, just like the default engineer squads.
On top of that, all default soldiers should be level 1, just like the standard squads (or randomly a level II or III soldier for each squad) and the ability to replace said soldiers should be introduced (although the premium weapons should be limited only to said premium squads and the ability to use standard guns should be disabled for: assaulters that are part of premium assault squads, gunners that are part of premium gunner squads, troopers that are part of premium trooper squads and engineers that are part of premium engineer squads).
That would still give a pretty big advantage over players that don’t have said premium squads, because at the moment, everyone is locked to maximum 2 default assaulter squads and 2 default gunner squads (I won’t mention the troopers and engineers because frankly I don’t find them OP).
If the devs decide to introduce a third class for assaulters and gunners, then I have no problem with the restrictions I mentioned above being lifted and all premium squads being treated like standard squads.
Peace out.
P.S. - I feel forced to copy & paste my answer into all 5 topics, so don’t give me hate for it.
