Battlefield 4 Commander tips
The Commander in Battlefield 4 is a very important role. Given two equal teams, the one with the better Commander will usually win. Commanders need to know the game modes and maps very well, and they need to know the strengths and weaknesses of their teams in order to better lead. It’s frowned upon Commanders who play actively in the game instead of actually leading the team.
If the Battlefield 4 Commander isn’t doing his job, e.g. participating in combat instead of commanding, his teammates can vote to replace him with a new player.
