"I'm afraid of the man I'll become if I lay my life down for the people I don't even care for"

Since there is speculation that the game will have larger scale battles, do you think 32 players or even more, 60-100, will be possible?

MAG was able to put 256 players in one game, why not Halo Reach with pelicans, phantoms, explosions going of every where in a massive map?

FUN!

I think way more than 32 would be possible, but I wouldn'y like to see more than this as it wouldn't really suit halo very well (in my opinion). Mainly because when I play Halo I find enimies every 5 seconds(not literely but you get the point), however when I play a large scale multiplayer game (frontlines, Battlefield) this is not the case. They make the maps too big, kinda like sandtrap is for 16 players because most people seem to group in one area. But if the maps could be made so that there would be enough players in all areas at all times that it would be interesting without too many players fighting in the same place it could still be good. But I doubt it'll happen.

i agree with flaargman, the maps have to be good and even maybe the entire sandbox size maps if its 80-100(all of it no gardians, and no sand), and 2 sandboxes(the area bungie wants you to play) for 50-80, 1/2 sandbox for 30-50 and sand box for 30 and under, and 12000-20,000 cash for forge depending on the size of map. the teams would have to have a type of squads in them,(kinda like BFbad company) and the connections better be good. the vehicles should include some sort of land based transport or air transport to get across the map fast, the gametypes should be souped up,(ie first to 1,000 kills, 10 flag scores,ETC) and the maps better be pretty -BLAM!-ing good for 100 players. those are all my thoughts, im sure none of this would happen though. :(

If anything it won't increase by much. I'm thinking around twenty four at the most.

i am ok with just uping it to 24 instead of 16 not that much of an increase but more of a chance for 24 being devisable by 7
anyways 24 sounds more like a big battle than 16 ever will
