Very nooby question but when im a squad leader, how do i issue attack/ defend orders ? I only seem to be able to get move orders. Dont you get squad bonus points when you set up objectives ?

No bonus points and you give squad commands with your squad rose, to bring it up hit T, works just like the commo rose. Or you could hit Caps lock and use it like the commander screen, just right click and choose an option.

Rofl how long have you been playing?

nano did you notice this is 2142 question if i remember right the orders should be targeted just over the flag otherwise it jsut gives a move order, been a while since i played it so....

You have to use the secondary radio, theres your primary radio which is like calling for a medic and spotting enemy, secondary asks for stuff like vehicle drop, supplies and arty when a squad member and if youre leader you can order demolitions, attacks, movements defense, UAV, arty, supplies and vehicle drop which goes straight to the commander, squad member request dont go to the commander, its your leaders duty to issue requests

cheers fin, i will try it over a flag next time. Dont think anyone else realised this was 2142 !!
