I really don't know if a fast action paced game like Halo would be able to support many more than 16 players. I think it would be cool to be able to have 32 players. How do you think this would affect gameplay? 32 player battles would mean more vehicles would be needed. Pelicans and Dropships would be needed. What are your thoughts?

32-40 players is all i need. a 16v16 battle would be great.

I wouldn't mind a max of 16 players, nor would I mind a max of 36 players. But, they'd need to limit the amount of people for some maps... Like, if they had Lockout in Halo 3, I'm sure 36 players would be too much.

Halo is fast-paced? Could of fooled me.

16 should be the norm for every game. I've played games with over 16 and they get rediculous.

Well, its fast paced for modern shooters on the 360. Most of those (unlike Q4) are pretty sluggish when it comes to online play. Although, it can be pretty slow sometimes.

Hated by many, confronted by none.

I have heard rumors about 128 players. I pray to all known gods it's true!

For sanity's sake, 32-40 will be enough (I've played that many in Perfect Dark Zero and Call of Duty 2 PC and enjoyed it a lot).

128 would probably kill the graphics and ambience.

I think either 24 or 32 would be a reasonable goal to shoot for.

They say the more the merrier, but actually I prefer small matches, 3 on 3, 4 on 4 or even 2 on 2. But it doesn't hurt to have something between 24 and 32. And it would be cool to have Dropships, but somehow I have a feeling they wouldn't fit in. Maybe not.

7,000,000. But I'll settle for 6,000,000.

Teach a man religion, and he will starve to death praying for a fish.

Maybe 20. A little step up wouldn't hurt.

I hope that it will be about 32 players max. If it would be a tottal lag-fest then I say have max players 24.

I don't care all that much honestly. I was never a huge fan of BTB games. They lag and it's just hectic. I'd much rather halo be capabale of a solid 2v2 like halo 1 was. Most halo 2 maps dont' work well and the guns dont't hit far enough, plus it's a campfest.

i am hoping that they are able to make about 32 like in PDZ and have no lag for most of the time (again like PDZ).

  • 06.13.2006 3:32 PM PDT

Zerogreenchief is eh pretty cool guy, eh trolls people and doesn't afraid of anything.

32 would be great maybe 50 or 64 if they can make it work bigger the better i say but thats just me not everyone here has played PLAneTside god i loved tha game until i decided the subscription costs were rediculous and quit

I'd like to see Big Armoured Vehicular Battles with three warthogs two tanks two ghosts and two banshees on each team, so that would mean....15 players on each team.

  • 06.13.2006 3:34 PM PDT

I hope if they have 16 vs. 16, they bring back Infinity from Halo PC, that level was tiiiiiiiiiiiigggghhhhhhhhhhttttttt.

  • 06.13.2006 3:37 PM PDT

I put on pants for this?

as many as they can make it with the smallest amount of lag, so hopefully about 30-32 for only really big battles.

  • 06.13.2006 3:37 PM PDT

Zerogreenchief is eh pretty cool guy, eh trolls people and doesn't afraid of anything.

o well if you want large scale fights like 100 v 100 i say buy Huxley when it comes out

  • 06.13.2006 3:39 PM PDT

that would be crazy awesome, but think of the lag. i would support that if bungie found some way to destroy the lag.
