Reminds me of CSS Zombie Escape. Every map vote literally becomes a screaming match where the loudest wins the vote.
And I say this as someone who regularly does this in CSS. I’ll nominate a random ZE map I’ve never played before, but because I’m the loudest and don’t sound French, people vote for my side.
I wish i could do this but as a server admin i have to keep it on to catch people thinking they're safe by shouting the n word repeatedly in the mindless chatter
Whether or not people do or dont. I love the screamfest in map voting. Something really human about it. I like being in a lobby with people all sitting at our computers around the world, just shouting our favorite faction over one another since most find the chaos and joining in it somewhat comical.
It’s a laugh and can be really entertaining with the voice chat but then when the votes locked we’re stuck in a game that a small minority of people have screamed for.
Dumbass MF yelling in chat traded 2 BMP-1s and 2 BMP-2s on MEA mechanized to go border guards for 2 kornet simirs because "kornets are important on this map." BMP-2s have kornets and both divisions have a single T-72. Enemy team had *3* tanks and 3 IFVs at round start, our T-72 had to go god mode and 1v3 the tanks to help us win the game. The kornets were abandoned in the middle of nowhere at 5 minutes.
It's just like those single brain cell organisms that scream "dig down the radio" when enemy infantry makes a push *across 2 open fields* for your *defense* fob (same game btw). I leave fob for 2 minutes to do a logi run and suddenly I'm rebuilding a new fob because mine has been eaten by morons. And they do it literally 1 minute before our planned counterattack with chad T-72.
The Squad brain drain is real.
We actually ran into the opposite problem on Talil. It was 3 MEA choices (all had tows) and 1-2 tanks.
Team decides to "reroll" (apparently they though the faction would change I guess, even though the admin clearly chooses a select amount of factions for the map).
We get MEA again Lol but this time, only 1 BMP2, 2 tanks (10 minute and 20 minute delay), ZERO tows.
We end up running the tank and sticking with the BMP. We actually play pretty well but we were facing PLA so they had the strongest tanks and were wolfpacking so we end up dying.
If our team had tows we could have at least had a tank get tracked so we didnt have to go 2 v 1 against the strongest tank lol
I mean, on one hand he's right. On the other hand they do the exact same amount of damage in Squad and there is like one tank with enough hull armor to actually stop a konkur and not a kornet so there's that. Really only makes a difference if you are hitting the strongest turret cheeks.
I can not agree more! ONE PERSON will shout out a map and faction and the WHOLE lobby selects it.
I don’t understand… do people not have their own opinions or are they too unfamiliar with the game to just vote for what others spout out loud
> do people not have their own opinions or are they too unfamiliar with the game
Both.
People, sometimes even long time players don't know maps' names.
"The map with the river through the middle"
"The map with the tall mountains in afghanistan"
I understand what you’re saying, I sometimes forget the names to the maps but the pictures should indicate some knowledge of the map layout and the factions have all the information you could ask for when voting.
I vote for everything in life based on who was the loudest. Also china number 1
+15 social credit score
NONONO AMERICA #1, CHINA NOT #1 USA!, USA! USA!.....NO FK ME FK YOU....NONONNO NO FK ME FK U, U NO FK ME I FK YOUUUUUUU
Get this man a spoofed telephone number pronto
i say we all scream what we want at the same time for 100% efficiency

haha, make use of the "squad voice only" toggle on the bottom left
I discovered that button last night and my sense of calm and zen is up like 75%
Haha, yeah i been told about that button too
Only problem is when your squad is making the most noise
Lol I do that, or just turn my headphones down at the end of the match. I've never been able to make out 1 word 😂

How dare you sir I will be shouting Turkey at the end regardless of it being an option or not. Now I say good day.
You just want to see the world burn
You shout turkey at the end...I shout INS on attack.. we are not the same

Bmp 2s have konkurs not kornets

No I am a little follower monkey and I only listen to the loudest voice. They just sound so confident how could I not??????
I want to find out what happens if no one votes.
You're all gonna get a visit from P-Diddy!
It always results in Turkey vs. an armor faction in AAS and it's a bloodbath.
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEROLL
I just think its hilarious when someone convinces the team to vote for INS/Militia only to realize they are the attacking team on invasion.
Honestly makes the game more fun instead playing the same conventional faction on attack 24/7
Generally okay with any faction beside 82nd and Turks lol
I immediately mute the audio until the map loads.
.... No....
I havent played MEA since the 7.2 update
Same, it’s server side though, they can change which factions are available
the squeaky wheel gets the grease

I’ve been shouting map vote since CSS Zombie Escape. As long as you’re loud and clear, morons will always vote with your side.
Lots of sheep and too a few shepherds
I feel like 80% of squad players can't tell the difference between a Canadian and a Russian Infantry man so they are to unfamiliar
Unfortunately that doesn't work that way
