While the ability to order your squad around to attack or defend certain objectives has been a classic Battlefield staple for years now, it's never been more important than in this latest release.

As the leader of your squad, you can press R1/RB to place orders on objectives around the map, rewarding your team with bonus XP if they defend, capture or just get kills around those points.
