Can you give Squad leaders any kind of indication of when players will spawn/ if they actually spawned on you?

Or even if any of the dead is under your command??

Anyone who loves playing Squad Leader can probably relate

I have mixed feelings about this suggestion:

On the one hand, it would make a good feature of the game more useful and add a further tactical element to gameplay.

On the other, it sounds a bit 'gamey' and immersion-breaking to have on screen messages telling you how long until your squad members can respawn. Perhaps you should only get the info on the F1 screen.

Just listen to footsteps, when you think they've spawned, open a map and check their location.

VOIP. Ask them to spawn on you and ask them to tell you when they do. Depending on server settings, I believe the dead can tell you when they're going to spawn or at least type it.

already do that. not everyone has mics. and the suggestions are not even related to the squadmates, just the squad leader

Most of the players don't say anything, ever.

Players are generally way less talkative here than in the US.

Squad system seems very tacked on with no thought put into it.

squad leaders need to know who is in their squad, what roles they are and whether or not they are alive, on the fly.

squad members also need to be notified much more properly when orders are given. the current system has this tiny writting that blends in with all the other chat.

squad leaders need to be able to mark fire sectors, as well as other commands such as "move to and hold" and "move to and clear"
