Systems & progression
Ping Wheel, Truce and assimilation
Coordinate through visual squad commands, request a Truce or assimilate with another squad. Proximity Chat communicates with nearby Operators.
When to use the wheel
Use visual commands when voice communication is unavailable, compromised or deliberately silent. The Part 1 article names Truce and assimilation but does not show every wheel option or the acceptance controls.
Squad limits and matchmaking
The retained developer AMA says an assimilated squad is capped at four. Matchmaking aims to place solos with solos, duos with duos and trios with trios, without guaranteeing it. Players can truce, betray or assimilate. The answer also names Tourniquet and Stealth Meter as solo-support mechanics.
Still to establish
The exact request/accept/reject flow, interaction range, request duration and full wheel layout remain unverified. No guaranteed solo-only playlist, matchmaking timeout or population threshold follows from the developer’s answer.
Communication actions
Use Ping Wheel for visual squad commands, request Truce, assimilate with another squad and other Operator actions; Proximity Chat communicates to nearby Operators. No wheel screenshot or numerical squad limit is supplied here.
Squad-size matching and assimilation
Matchmaking aims to group solos with solos, duos with duos and trios with trios, without a guarantee. Players can truce, betray or assimilate; total assimilated squad size is capped at four. The answer names Tourniquet and Stealth Meter as solo-support mechanics.
