There's a system in place in BF4 that does just that.
Not sure why they didn't add it to BF1 as well.

Your mind will be blown
Operations feels like a successful marriage between Heroes and Generals and BF. God damn I did not expect to be enjoying this game this much.

Eventually it became an issue where randoms would pop into your squad and try to steal the squad leader position by spamming Request Order constantly at all times. It was super fucking annoying.

I'm on PS4 and I have mine set to 70 or 75 and I'm fine with it.
Mostly attacking I mean, forgot to clarify.
Yeah I'm on PC, I've added you Origin ID is ItsThatAsianBoy
First and last map both have 6 sectors to cap. Sinai Desert is especially hard since it has a lot of open areas so it's not that easy to find cover when going from spawn to the points, and by that point you'll probably be on your last try as well.

Yeah 64 player has the same number of tickets and attempts as 40 players. I def think 64 player mode need some revision.
So is it easier with 40 players? I haven't tried that yet.

So how do you join a game with friends on PS4?

Are the medals glitchy? I need to win 2 rounds to finish one, won 2 rounds but it's not updating.
I also got a battlepack at the end of last match, but it's nowhere to be found.

A distinguishably shitty layout yes. There's nothing satisfying about each objective being solely separated by one or two narrow passageways that enemies can lock down with grenades, tripwire, and snipers. And that bridge cap point, unlike the bridges on Amiens (which are way taller and bigger) you can't cap the flag from underneath. It's a shitshow meatgrinder.

After finally getting online with the PS4, I have to say I'm mightily impressed by the game both on a gameplay front and a technical front.
Spent a couple hours trying out Operations and found it to be excellent and a great deal of fun. 2 wins out of 2 was the icing on the cake!
Its looks splendid on PS4 and if there are drops then I cant say I noticed any.
Even the campaign mode was pretty good for the one story I played through waiting for PSN to get sorted, which is a welcome bonus!

I played it once on PS4. Made it all the way to the last sector on the second map. Game ended as attackers made the final push towards B after capturing A.

How do you equip a skin to a weapon? I got one for my handgun from a battlepack but don't see a way to customize the guns - does it automatically do it?

It's mode specific and tiered. It may say win 2 rounds but if the medal is for the domination game mode you won't get wins from playing conquest. Also if the win 2 rounds is second on the medal list you have you complete the first portion of the medals requirements before you can do the second portion, etc etc.

customize or the gear symbol.

Probably cause it takes a long time to complete.
It's where you customize your weapons in the loadout section. It will be at the bottom if you have any skins.

Probably because the quickmatch is reserved for rotating map servers that never end, whereas the Operations game mode server ceases to exist once it's over.

This game feels exactly like Bad Company 2 and it's blowing my mind. It's SO GOOD

I don't understand why it's so hard for devs to implement an easy squad up feature in MP games these days. Why do I have to create a PSN party in order to play this with friends?

Man, these weapons are really confusing to me. In the beta, each weapon had like three different versions, which differed by sights and other attachments. The final game still has multiple versions of weapons, but you can also customize each variant. I have no idea why they still have separate versions of weapons, then.
Also, I can't believe they haven't fixed the wrong button prompts. It keeps telling me R1 is to throw a healing bandage.

You can throw bandage with spot button (aim at damaged ally and spot). It throws it further that way.

They are behind everywhere but in game. Sometimes mine update immediately, sometimes not.

Really? I thought those were mapped to the D-pad.
That's not a wrong prompt. You can quickly throw a bandage or ammo pack to someone in need with R1 /RB.
It is but spot also works.
DeadlyParasite

Because R1 is the throw healing bandage context sensitive button. You can drop a bandage with the other button or you can throw a bandage while aimed at a friendly with R1.
It is you just can't throw them whenever you want...only at wound soldiers.

Would the same apply for ammo?

Managed to get almost 100 kills just with the MG15 storm on the operation Iron Wall.
That last few areas are crazy snipe fests.

Yes. Both ammo pouches and bandage pouches can be thrown at allies which "locks onto" the player you're targeting and automatically applies the ammo/health.
bullet travel time + wind and such also have a minor effect on them I think.
Slight lead and you're good at distance.
Civilization VI on Steam is the 3rd highest for concurrent users right now.
Current: 131,569
Peak: 142,781
The PC numbers on this beat that handily.
