(Picture: EA)Īsides from not being able to pick or create a new squad, another core squad feature that is missing from Battlefield 2042 is the automatic squad leader change. Is there automatic squad leader replacement in Battlefield 2042? If your squad leader is not up to their task, there will be no way to replace them.

So, for now, the only option to change a squad in Battlefield 2042 is to be randomly placed into another, but we hope that DICE will change this in the near future. No one is sure why is this staple feature removed from Battlefield 2042 but some fans speculate DICE wants to create an environment that will protect lower-skilled players from being left out and pushed to the bottom of each game (the school sports team-picking effect).
