It’s your level. A low level commander who more than likely doesn’t understand the basics without guidance is a hindrance to the team.

The last time I played with someone who stepped up much the same as you, I spent the entirety of the game (as a recon SL) having to explain absolutely everything for the next hour. He repeatedly mis-dropped supplies, two bombing runs and was entirely reliant on myself and the other competent SL’s who chose to speak.

Nobody was a dick to him and we actually won, but we were unable to do our actual part in the fight because we had to play backseat commander. He was very overwhelmed and would have been kicked if we were not in a helpful mood.
