Question about PS's commander roll

[Cyanide]

I read on the PS website that in planetside you can take the roll of a commander so-to-speak and form/order squads to different waypoints and objectives, etc. I was wondering if this feature is actually being used to any success in the beta. I don't know if just telling that violates the NDA or not. I don't want to know any details about the commander system. I just want to know if it's actually being used by players in the beta.

I ask this because Tribes2 (a game that has many similarities to PS) had a "commander" feature too. You could put waypoints on other players huds and give them objectives. The only problem is, nobody ever listened to the orders. So i want to know if this thing is actually used in PS.
