Howdy All,
I think that the total number of players in MP could be changed. Here are my suggestions:
System Match games - increase the max number of players to 20 per game. This will provide new game opportunities. Of course, not all games would be good with 20 players total but having some games available for a total of 20 players. A lot of the current matchmaking, except for the modders and cheaters, could be the same or similar like TS, hardcore and others. Maybe increase each team to 5 players total on some of the games.
Custom Games - the limit could be ginormous and not just 20 as proposed above. The xbox 360 should have the capability to handle more than 20 players. PDZ did ok with 32 players as long as the host had a good internet connection. I'd say at least 25 players total. Of course I have no idea how the 360 really works and how that could be done. I guess 24 total players would be a better number 6 xboxs x 4 players per box. 28 or 32 could be cool too if there are maps that would provide good game play with that many players. Rumble rockets would be krazy with 32 players!!
Anyway, this is my suggestion to Bungie as far as total players on MP. Also, I would not mind paying an extra buck or two a month to really ensure cheaters and modders get shown the back door no more than 2 days after they start modding or are reported.
