September 9, Game Update 3 (PS4 US)

We will be updating the US servers tomorrow morning at 6am (Pacific). Expected downtime is approximately 2 hours. The following additions/changes have been made:

Platoons

 * Support has been added for platoons. A platoon is a collection of up to four squads working together to accomplish objectives.
 * When there are 3 or more players in a squad a platoon can be created. Players can be shifted to different squads by selecting them and choosing the squad where they should be transferred.
