Is there a party/ squad up option at all?

The pc version will automatically put you and your friends in the same squad. Not sure about any other version of the game.

When you join into a game that has your friends in it you will be placed in their squad.

This doesn’t happen 100% of the time though. If my friend and I join a game he may already be in a full squad and I’m put in a new one.

Really? I joined my friends game a few times and ended up on the opposing team. How do I set it to join squad? (I am on PS4 mind…)

There are many things to take into account. Your friend has to be in an open squad. There has to be room on your friends team. Seriously, Dice is making it harder than it has to be to play with friends.
