Is commander useful?

Sometimes I feel like it helps if our team is doing bad and I go to commander to sort of arrange a battle plan. But do people actually listen to the commanders orders?

I did the same but gave up because it was rare that anyone would follow orders.

As a squad leader that accepts or denies commander orders as they appear, I’d have to say I listen to commanders only when it coincides with my own plan. Too many commanders I’ve seen will give ridiculous orders that cannot be followed.

However, commander UAV is extremely useful as it gives god-vision of the battlefield to anybody looking at the minimap.

Sadly this is true. I’m without my BF (Xbone shit) and I’ve been rocking commander on my iPad to get a fix. It’s much easier tool to use Commander on. The “squad orders” I use mainly to tell squads of people sitting camping at the back of the base like dicks to get up and move forward towards an objective, or if we clearly have one I’ll try to redirect a squad or two to push towards another.

I always did follow cuz I thought it was fun. Unless I was hunting someone in particular.
