Outfit Divisions


One thing both my outfit and I re hoping to see is an ingame ability to separate everyone into their own divisions within the outfit. So you would have an Armor Division, Air etc. Personally I would think it would be pretty sweet to be able to show your rank within the outfit and your division on your shoulder. So you would have your ribbon rack on your left shoulder and your rank/division insignia on your right.
I know it's just fluff but I think it would be cool.

Thumbs up on that suggestion. I like the idea.

Higby has said something along the lines of them recognizing how sweet the outfit specialization perks are and understands outfits will want to use multiple roles.

We so need some details, like soon. We should be out of this Teaser phase.

Re: Outfit Divisions


I'd like the option of Outfit leaders able to create groups/section within their own outfit under different leaders and names period. Be useful to have consistent squads or putting someone under the newbie grp so you can watch over them. You know besides the obv. armor/aircraft/infantry groups

I like this idea and where it could lead to, a possible automated outfit grouping system.

If outfits could assign members for example to 3 groups, platoon leaders, squad leaders and infantry and outfit members could be assigned to multiple groups, an auto grouping system could be created.

When two outfit members are online, an option could be presented to group up and form an "outfit squad". If more members come online, the squad will grow and with little to no user interaction will keep on growing auto joining "outfit members" who log in and come online. When the squad is full, it could split up the full squad in half, two half full squads and join them in a platoon and keep on auto joining new members.

Outfit members who are assigned to the squad/platoon leader roles, will automatically be assigned to lead a squad/platoon for those automated squad/platoon creations.

Re: Outfit Divisions


I read the dev tease as:
Outfits are supposed to be small and specialized (air, tank, boot, etc.)
Alliances gather specialist outfits together under one banner.

But I could be wrong.
