Will there be a SQUAD 2?

[I return friendly fire]

I really hope there will be, on unreal 5 with better netcode and I hope one day a global map where each battle could affect the overall global map.

Make it a 'seasonal' game when a super power loses.

With buildings destruction.
And ground destruction, arty doing holes and stuff like that.

we can dream, i suppose. In any case its more likely we get Squad 2 on Unreal 5 than an upgrade to UE5 for Squad.

actually a game like Squad on UE5 might be less demanding on hardware..., its a lot more efficient afaik and makes better use of available hardware ressources.

On if the devs manage to implement the game into UE5 properly which I don't think they can to be honest, especially when bigger AAA companies still can't.

And who would program it?

They could just buy the FPS template from the Epic Marketplace just like they did with a bunch of the other stuff in the game.

They just announced today that they are updating Squad to Unreal 5!

Announced where? I'm looking at their Discord and I see nothing about that.

alright, thanks. Wondering a bit about the gloom and doom in the comments there..., isn't UE5 supposed to perform better or at least make better utilization of available hardware ?

bad news for mods i suppose..., having to adjust all assets to UE5 is going to be a tall order for modding teams...

I would appreciate even cube graphics just like battlebit if we would recieved functional physics and stable net code. Ballistics tabs, armour piercing /ricocheting like Graviteam tactics has...

Even the movement is wrong. Lets these basement nerds run up to the hill in full gear for 60m to watch their "stamina" and Rambo (nonnoodle) arms....

Even Post Scriptum had mechanics, that moving through the bushes slower player, prowning exhausted players rapidly...
