I don't think you understand what lag is.
Lag is the time it takes from when you press your right trigger, for it to travel to your console, to your modem, to somewhere, to bungie's server, to the other persons modem, to there console and BACK AGAIN.
I think it's amazing that a message can travel across the world in a tenth of a second. The more players, the MORE LAG, because there's MORE MESSAGES to be sent!
We can only ever minimize lag, not get rid of it. 20v20 online?
NO WAY.
8v8 on Halo 3 was edging on no way. but more than double that? No. Can. Do.
Although, the amount of absolute adrenaline pumping LAN action that will go on at my house will -blam!- rock.
20v20 LAN yes.
20v20 LIVE no.
Have you ever played any of the Battlefield Games? The first one, made back in 2000, could do 32 vs. 32 with little to no lag. Twenty vs. Twenty is quite possible, and I think that with a well built engine, you could easily do 50 vs. 50 (granted, that would be way to insane). I love this idea, and really hope that it gets put in the final version. It would make for some amazing LAN parties....
