True, but only to a certain point. Vital communication with squadmates and setting VOIP to team can both help your team move appropriately depending on the situation. Many times I'd have two members of my squad move to secure one objective whist myself and the remaining member secure the other one.

In my view, squad leaders should all have voice set to team and communicate with other squad leaders, like in BF2.
