I had this problem after I chose to join NAPA forces in "bitter chill". Squad wouldn't budge in the "delaying bear" mission no matter what happened so I completed it solo. Problem would repeat in the next mission, badlands with NAPA.
I conquered the first town with NAPA's assistance but nothing happened.
Today I went back to bitter chill and tried to make it to the ship, but no can do. As an aside: I got as close as 3000m from the ship, so I called the chopper. Moron pilot picked me up at the 4th try because he would choose to land on the one odd tree in the middle of an open field, with the result one would normally expect. When we finally managed to get onboard, instead of flying toward the ship the pilot headed straight toward novy sabor, where a sam got us down. Go figure!
Anyway, this time, instead of joining NAPA forces I chose to join CDF forces. They found us, and the mission ended the same way it did when we went with NAPA. It brought us to "badlands", this time we had to take the cities in the reverse order, and with CDF forces. My team still wouldn't lift a finger. I went without them, commanded the CDF forces to conquered the city, which we did. Then HQ deployed an APC and once it arrived in the city the locals got their panties in a bunch and the priest gave a speech. After the cutscene ended I went to the point where the APC was stationed. I ordered my team to board the BMP and guess what, they finally showed up. I ordered them around for a bit, no problem, everything's back to normal.
Maybe the multi-language patch misreads language codes and turns some copies into the french version of the game, which would explain why my team hides during combat and only shows up when the fighting is over. But the text is still in English so it could be something else.
Installed 1.02 now my squad won't move
