After reading the many posts in the "Likes, Dislikes" thread concerning the GDC videos, it appears that this specific feature has received a lot of "Disliikes", and I'm curious as to why.
My understanding of how squad spawning is currently implemented (and please correct me if I my information is dated or wrong on this) is:
- It is an ability that only a squad leader can use/activate (squad members cannot activate it).
- It requires some amount advancement down a "Leadership" CERT tree (not every squad leader will have this ability).
- The ability will be on a timer.
- It can only be used outdoors.
- It is not instantaneous (uses drop pods).
- It can be used as a OSOK weapon (verse Infantry only?) assuming that the target stands still long enough.
