I know there is a hud that shows members in your squad, but will there be an option to cycle between each squad in your platoon?

Not really sure, but I think that you can only have two squads in a platoon, but I may be wrong. If there is only two per platoon, I don't think you will be able to cycle. But that's still just a guess.

No SJ confirmed it was 3 squads in a platoon.

Theres is Definitly 3 Squads in a platoon, where did you get two? if you look at some of the screens you may be able to pick up some hints but there is nothing officially released

Guess I just misread it, or maybe it was old, or incorrect.

I don't think he's an admin... That's why it says PSU Staff.

So there are outfits, platoons, empires, and squads. What's next? are they going to have regiments (spelling?) and sub-squads? It hurts my brain.

Of course when my outfit in the Terran Republic, which is an empire, joins up with other outfits to create a platoon, it will be your brain that will hurt.

Although there is no official information, I would guess it is a no. A platoon links three commanders together, it doesn't truly link the three squads together (hence, no BEPs shared, just CEPs), so really it is more of a communication thing, and not a know the other squad type of thing.
