I think there should be a yes or no popup when the person who assumes company command tries to move players around within lances.

Ever since the last patch, I feel I need to take company command ASAP just to keep someone else from doing it and splitting the lance I am in apart. I almost always drop with 3 other Synergy members, and I really don't like it when someone else takes company command and moves us around into other lances.

I like being able to see what percent health my friends are at and where they are on my radar map by the different colored triangles. If someone else takes company command, then decides certain mech types should be grouped together and splits us up, that upsets me. Also, some can do it just to troll others when they see them on their team and know they are grouped together.

I would like to see a little button that pops up that says "Company commander wants to move you to lance..." with a clickable yes or no. I feel that would be a simple solution to players being moved around to other lances when they don't want to be moved.

This sounds like a sensible and simple solution to the problem (having experienced this myself). I vote yes.

Yes, please. I was surprised that the devs even added this feature, as 1) it is rife for trolling and 2) lances specifically queue together to PLAY together.

Please please do this. I've been trolled out of my lance two games in a row now.

just lock lances / or even simply players that drop together, and let them click an unlock icon if they are willing to let commander re-assign them.

Perhaps by some blessing of the gods PGI will actually see this. Would be a nice change.

A friend of mine had the idea that you could take lance command and lock your lance so the company commander couldn't break it apart.

That would be another good solution to this problem.

I prefer Colonel Pada Vinson´s solution.

Personally i thought the Lance Leader should be able to lock their Lances from being split but his idea is more practical than mine.

Atm company command is sadly just a "we are a premade and don´t want to be split up"- button.

I'd also prefer a lock over asking everytime, but both would still be better then random ppl moving us around!
