16 Players has been here in the Halo Francise for a long time, is it time to atleast double it to maybe 32? Or even 64? Or even higher? Please Bungie. It will make BTB alot of epic, with massive battles in massive battlefields. This equal unlimited Fun.

Golf Wang. Brony.

I would really like to see Reach multiplayer to support 18-24 players.

16 is alright, though.

I hunt for the Prophet of Contentment, the San 'Shyumm that murdered my son, and stole his birthright, his Energy Sword. They call our species Heretics. They claim to all that our tongues sting, our words a vile poison that feeds on the unworthy. I have seen the true face of Heresy. The head of a gallant warrior lay on the ground. His neck scorched and blistered, scarred by his own blade. I shall retrieve the weapon, and drive it through that bastard's heart! Punishment for his sins is nigh.

16. 8 v 8 games are already almost breaching on the randomness level of 6-8 player FFA.

It would be sweet to have more then 16 but 9 out of 10 games with be really laggy

  • 09.29.2009 3:19 PM PDT

i guess if we increase the head count, we need dedicated servers, i seen a thread just below.

  • 09.29.2009 3:21 PM PDT

I like to lax and i like to partAy

32 most likely because i think reach is going to be more expansive and open world in the multilayer because why beta it if its the same as h3

  • 09.29.2009 3:23 PM PDT

ZOMG!!! Over 9000!! That would be pretty awesome. We'd get a whole planet to fight on. Realisticly, 32 would make me happy.

It's Over 9000

If there are dedicated servers, games could easily reach over 64 players (BF2, COD4 PC) Its been done before, Im not sure if it's been done on console, but 64 players is easily done on PC

  • 09.29.2009 9:48 PM PDT

32 players AT LEAST! seriously, SW battlefront had 32 players so why not Reach?!

  • 09.29.2009 9:49 PM PDT

Perception is everything.

Hoping for 32, but I'll be satisfied with 24.

i'm hoping for at least 20 but to be realistic bungie is known for their detail, so for them to be able to render everything in a chaotic situation with a steady framerate (and it must be on an improved graphics engine) is a tall order

and as someone said networking as well, i don't think you could have hosts for something bigger than 18 players you'd have to have something dedicated.

Because it's a different game, with different multiplayer?

Just because they're doing a Beta doesn't mean they're going to double the max amount of players.

well you are all saying it would be good to have more than 16 players in a match but you are also saying that there will be lots of lag . well why would bungie do a beta for reach multiplayer if there not going to change it . they will do the beta see that there will be lag and try and fix it . look for example at bad company you can have 12 per side and theres no lag at all

Um... I like Halo? I don't really know what to say. I'm a student at the moment, I hope to become a criminal profiler, and I enjoy pretty much everything as long as it's good.

32 or 64. This would require extra huge maps. I would love a large scale battle.

Why does everyone want more than 16? I find that 8v8 is more than enough people.

I want at the very least 24 players anything lower than that is unacceptable. UNACCEPTABLE I SAY!!!

Not It'll just get it more notoriety. If enough people reply someone might eventually see it. I haven't seen many people make threads about this so I'll just try and keep ot going.
