Proper ranks

[PitViper]

I'd like to see the ranks and positions used more realistically in campaign. A big mistake in OFP1 was the use of LT's as squad leaders. Squad leaders are always NCO's and never officers. We should have proper use of platoon leaders, platoon sergeants, first sergeants, CO's sergeant majors etc etc. Of course, this would only be relevant if we get a couple more layers above squads in the control scheme (ie. platoons, companies, battalions...)

Depends which military you are talking about.
Not everyone is american, you know.

The force ingame will be American, will it not?

lol comun.

I am sure US will be one of the forces in the game. The rank system should be better but we dont need to many. What do you want with a general???

I don&#39;t really give much thought about the ranks. All I know is, this mukka with the highest rank is the one who shouts shit out.

In reality it doesn&#39;t even matter, some squads leader is a Major just like  Ghost Recon. In some countries squads are corporals, like me. Even a general can even lead a squad, platoon, or company, that I heard a country do, during WWII.
