How does the platoon system work? Can you see if platoon members are currently playing on a service, and join their squad? Or how does it work? Would love to play together with someone and get some teamplay going, you can't count on these random lot to watch your back. 95% of my deaths are shots from the back.

Pretty much yes. Also easy to add ppl from the Platoon to your Comm Centre thingy, and you can definitely join their games from there :)

I'm up for it, as long as it's around 9pm, I'm whipped :p My partner do a lot of university studies in the evening around tea time, and since we've only got a smallish flat and the study/PC room is the same room, well I'm not allowed to be too noisy :p My mic is half broken though, quite quiet, and since it's a high volume game it won't be heard, that said, I can always do what I'm told, will give the mic a go. Not allowed to buy a new headset either! Quite obvious I'm getting one for chrismas along with my mouse and other stuff xD... She always buys me PC accessories for chrismas :p

On the platoon section search for PCSpecialist apply to join (top right I think) and then me or Bowen will accept you in as soon as we get a chance. If it is your main platoon you can set it as you main in the platoon page.

Ill sort out a game this evening once im home from work, so my guess is itll be about 8 - 9pm ish.

The voip is part of the battlelog. When you join a party on the battlelog it automatically signs you into the voice channel, you can then opt to leave or join again into that channel. The gamer picture of each person at the top fo the party box has a little sound icon under it to indicate them having a mic plugged in. Also incase you want to mute someone you can click on the little gamer pic and click mute player. You may want to mute Bowen, hes a bit annoying :p haha

what does my head in, when someone sends a request whilst in game, to join a party, you are not notified till you finish the game and return to the browser.
