Yes, this is a common hard mode strategy. (Destiny)

On easy mode, I much much much prefer calling out platforms from the beginning and sticking with them. On hard mode, it takes so much work to damage the ogres, and each position has another job, there has to be two guys off platforms in the middle damaging ogres.

For those new to hard mode, this makes sense because just about every job on hard mode is difficult. The platformers have to snipe knights in reverse of the ogres, and do it quick. The ogres need to be downed at the same time, and as simple as it sounds, it isn't. Specialization on the task is pretty much necessary. Having one guy on each platform, then swapping the fourth guy into the middle makes it an exceptionally complicated run.

Otherwise, you're right. Names or designations. On sisters, I always get dibs on spawn side right, and I always note where others are so I can replace them if they get stuck as runner. It's just not an option for hard mode Oryx.
