HomeLAN - Will the player get to control other soldiers in the game? John Whitmore - In most missions the player will be accompanied by squad mates that he can direct with a very simple interface. He can rally soldiers that are panicked or pinned down and can direct them to lay down suppressive fire or advance to an objective. The soldiers commands are designed to give the player another tool on the battlefield, but if he isn't interested in directing his squad mates or is skilled enough not to need them, they will manage themselves just fine during firefights.
