Ten-hut! DICE has introduced their clan/guild-based system Platoons for all soldiers busy soldiering in Battlefield 4. Now you can all huddle under a single banner and emblem in groups capped at 100.
The overall rank of the Platoon is dependent on the individual accomplishments of its members. A new Platoons section has open on the official forums for like-minded chums.
More about Platoons can be found under the ‘Home’ tab through Battlelog. The system initially favoured Premium members but now any of the lower classes can create one.
DICE outlined what Platoons can offer in this first iteration:
• The ability to create and join a Platoon for up to 100 members.
• Basic Platoon management such as inviting, applying, and promoting/demoting members.
• A private and public Platoon feed, where you can communicate and coordinate.
• A Platoon emblem and tag that all members can easily apply.
• The ability to earn stats for your Platoon and rank it up, and see all the matches you played together
DICE added: ”It is important for us to clarify that this is the first iteration of Platoons. We will continue to work on the feature to refine and expand it, but now we will finally have the opportunity to see it in action and get some real-world feedback. Now is the time for all our players to tell us what they like, what they want improved, and what they want to see next.”
More about Platoons can be found on the official Battlefield Blog.
