Squad Deathmatch

If you see this screen, it means you’re dead. Prepare to spawn on one of your living squadmates. Otherwise you’ll spawn at a random location, potentially placing you far from your squad.

Max Players: 16

In this mode, there are four four-player squads, each representing a different team: A, B, C, and D. The team that scores 50 kills first wins—the score is listed on the left side of the screen above the minimap. Unlike the Squad Deathmatch modes found in Battlefield 3 or Back to Karkand, there are no IFV vehicles available on these maps. But given the small layout of each map, there is never a dull moment. This is a very fast-paced game mode best played with good squadmates you can rely on to watch your back. Use squad spawning to stay together and stay alive!
