The server would create a culture, but who cares about culture if which squad you roll is just random like suggested in the well, suggestion.
You can already tell how itāll work out, because we did this before - fireteams exist, echo squad exists. This isnāt going to work unless you modify the game to make it work. Thereās no āwild speculationā here as youāre not proposing anything new, itās obvious how this will turn out and you can see for yourself at any time by trying to make a fireteam or echo squad. Splitting the squads like this would not lead to any more coherency between marines, if anything it would lead to squad comms being worthless as you cannot effectively pass information as a pfc.
The objectives are also unmet at all by this approach, save for modifying squad preps. It even goes contrary to having any āleadership linkā because CIC will not be able to handle so many squads at once if it already struggles with 4. And no, SLs will have no more power to ālead, manage or delegateā unless you have staff enforce listening to orders as a PFC or expect them to tard wrangle every single guy because thatās all it boils down to. People are perfectly capable of listening and following as it is, they just donāt want to. And while you can lead delta even if only 50% of the marines listen, what are you going to do with a squad of 4?
I dunno if youāre just completely unaware of how the game works or choosing to ignore it in a Walter-esque ālets force it in and then justify changes based on it being thereā approach. Needless to say all this idea would lead to - even if temporarily adopted - is an eventual rollback much like techwebs because you do not have the devs to modify the game into something fitting this.

Is this idea gonna get testmerged or did you give up on it?
I think this system is contingent on convincing someone to code it. I also think thwomper had a newer idea to seperate squads into a āassaultā, ādefensiveā and a special task squad.
yea thatās the real idea this was just paving the way for a feedback farm so i could finish the other model
