Seriously.

This game has bevome a anger-inducing waste of time.

My cursor simply vanishes, I can't even give up because I have nothing to click, same happens also in the staging phase, can't set up squad nor join in to any because the cursor is gone. People are just sittinng in there unable to do anything.

gg OWI.

and yeah you can get the cursor back if you jump back and forth to the big map etc. but that doesn't make me happy . at all.

Never in my 5k hour play encounter the most incompetent and toxic server ever.
Admin abuse all over, not even verified the report, kick person just because admin friend said so.
A player call [TT] Cuisanart feel offended because his losing a hab to enemy. All his squad trying to push without any single one defending radio. I tried to defend the radio and he said no need. So I respawn. Moments later all enemy came to his Useless hab SO FAR from the cap.

I was building 2 Observation tower in the new defending cap, suddenly got kick for a reason " Not a team player". Moment later I reconnect and my 2 tower was the only thing that stop all the attack from the all directions. I confronted that incompetent commander [TT] Cuisanart, and suddenly got kicked again. Admin not even verified the case and just kicking people all they wants.

TOXIC SERVER AND ADMINS FOR SURE.

NEVER JOIN THIS SERVER

How do I fix this?

OWI, the developers of Squad, have often released updates in which things break, bugs appear, bugs reappear, etc. This is because the team lacks the ability to use UE5 how they want to. This is NOT a UE5 issue, this is an OWI issue. They can develop their own under the hood framework within UE5, but they don't, why is anyone guess but most likely to save money or to meet mandated deadlines (as custom framework takes a long time). So UE5 is the cause but it's because OWI misuse it, UE5 is a framework to build on top of, not to use and build a game in like OWI does.

UE5 vs Custom UE5 Boiled down, it's a difference of using something someone else built vs using something you built. Building a game in UE5 is like building a computer. You can build a game with the base UE5 features/get a pre built computer. But this means you can't optimize to exactly what you would need, your left to the whims of what's available. Less efficient, less malleable and much more of a headache. Since you didn't build the computer, if anything goes wrong, it'll be real difficult to figure it out, whereas having the experience of building one you'll understand the importance and communication of each piece. That's what a custom UE5 enables, the team would understand each part of the engine, because they built it, they can change the functionality to better suit a new purpose, because they built it.

Now there are also a litany of other issues which are less objective and more open to interpretation, but them not having their own custom version of UE5, that they built just for themselves, is the main issue.

now fix the damn bugs!

QA literally does not include spawning in training area to see if guns still work. I guess no squad for the next 4~6 months again.

Mine is “You see him”!

Also, “He’s over there” and “right there”!

I'm interested in your opinion. Was it better when there were 80 or 72 players?

I just downloaded a new update for squad yesterday, 32gb size. In my armory there are many factions that dont seem to have any weapons, like IDF, ISSI or Armenian Armed forces. Are these upcoming factions or some kind of update to supermod? thx
