Dear players!
We are constantly working on the improvement of in-game cooperation and teamwork, this time we are updating Squad functionality. The whole invitation system has been optimized, now invites work faster and do not rely on joining chat anymore. A chat room is created automatically after any invites have been accepted.
This also means that a squad leader may revoke unaccepted invites and then invite other players - a squad maximum size remains the same at 4 players. Besides this, in the near future we plan to add an option when a player may give the squad leadership to another squadmate using a pop-up menu and choosing “Make leader” option.
From now on a player that has gone offline does not automatically leave the squad, his status indicator will become grey for other squad members and if he manages to reconnect to the game he rejoins the squad automatically, however he will have to wait till his fellows finish the match and return to the hangar.

great, I was waiting for changes like this, thank you guys...
Nice changes! Any plans to add more preset slots to tank/plane lineups? 8 slots for presets it's just not enough.. especially when you have already unlocked lot of vehicles..
No info yet, sorry.
And the fact they are client side....
Meanwhile, squadrons still don't have a lobby for squadron battles. For 8vs8 matches, we have to queue up in two 4-man squads. Imagine the mess when 2-3 teams try to play at the same time. :/ Also, I don't know what you've done to the news page, but today's news force-refresh every second in my Firefox.
The same happened to me on chrome yesterday, could cancel it but it is still frustrating.
Did the same to my (also firefox) but it seems to be working fine now
Nice! WHat also would be an interesting idea is to have an option to deactivate getting invited to squads: We often get invites by any people, but are not interested in joining a "arandom" squad. Being able to avoid that would be helpful...
literally i cant even play this game anymore about 1 week cause of this problem i try deleting my cache and try to download missing files updated my driver but when im searching my game and ive find one match suddenly it will freeze need help here if you can reply
kelahz098, uninstall, then full dwload, install
Finaly!!!
Are there plans to allow for bigger squads? Even 6 players would be nice. Maybe for squadron officers/commanders? Please, I want to hear your opinion on this :/
No sorry but 6 man squads is far too big. 6 squaded members can easily wipe out a whole team of single players purely from the added team work and live chat. It would simply be too unfair for those people who don't have squad members to team up with. Squad members of 4 can already win arcade games single handedly.
PawnedStaR, 5??? :D
Well done!
Yes this was a much needed addition, thank you!
in the future there should be an in game squad option telling your mates by looking at the map where to go individualy or group by group
Squads seem to be broken now
Forgot to add the problems -The statement "you are not in a squad" popping on screen when accepting a squad invite. Afterwards, it will say that the invite has expired -The player always ends up as squad leader while only the other person's name will appear in squad (no flag or picture) and also lack of a 'Ready button' -People only seem to be able to join a squad if both (maybe more, haven't tested) players have a squad chat tab open
Felicss, Problem has been fixed, sorry for spamming the comments section
