I've only had decent teamwork on a pub server 2 or 3 times. You can accomplich way more on your own in like an APC or a tank then trying to work with most "squads." that is so lame.
WOW!

I was thinking the same thing, you're going to the wrong kind of pub

Have you been joining squads? Even then it's going to be hit or miss because everyone wants to be Rambo. The best thing you can possibly do is just keep taking points.

I also thought you meant public house.
BTW, i've never heard anyone use the "Voice over IP" thing. I have it enabled, or is everyone in the world too scared to speak on their mic?
Obviously not CS players.

"pub" as in "public"
and yes I join squads, but either there's no squad leader or the squad leader is a fucking sniper that just masturbates on himself.
also, I spawned in my squad's hummer twice, only to run over a mine 20 seconds later. why is it so hard to work as a team?

this, it fucking pisses me right off
if ever i feel like some close bonding on the field, i start my own squad called 'teamwork', to entrace cunts who want to work together. it usualy ends with a squad full of assholes in seperate area's, but every so often somebody plays nice. best squad i was in was a full squad of 6 and every cupcake stayed together. great fun when we all pilled into a boat :D

The only times I've been in a squad that worked together has been when fellow 5punkers are playing

My typical method when I join in a server is to join the squad with the most people (that I can get into), if they look like they're playing like shit, then I switch. If they're still not doing anything worth being in their squad for, I start my own. At least that way you log in some squad leader time.
Your best bet, squad or not, is to keep hammering the points and disable the other teams stuff. It's always good to be in a squad, even if the players are crap, because it means that you can still possibly have a spawn even after all of the flags have been captured.

Deej, you really want to check what server you're going on. If it's some random clans then yes you will get a metric fuckton of retards who are lone wolf faggots. However, keep trying and find a server that acctaully offers teamwork, and chances are other people have done the same and are regulars there too. I never go on any bf2 servers now except the ctrlaltdel + 8bit joined server, my clans or opposing clans servers, or servers with clanmembers which ensures teamwork.
