I don’t think you can be the “Commander” until you reach level 10.

I have had this problem too. I try joing through battlelog and if I get that message I try to go through my friends screen on the xbox menu (pushing the xbox button). Is he sure there is room? I know not every game mode is 12v12, some are 10v10 etc, so he make think there is room when there isnt.

The “No Free Commander Slots” message is appearing because the server is full. In the coming future, this shouldn’t be an issue, because they’re re-enabling Server Queuing (Wait list) to join servers. They had to disable this feature for launch, because BF Premium Prioritization was causing server crashes.

Also, you can’t be a commander until level 10. Even still, this message appears because of the same criteria listed above.
