Think about it, 50 to 100 human players playing at the same time in the same game. Awsome experience? Or too chaotic? Will more players add to the fun and exitement had in the first two Halos? Or will the additions ruin the basic feel of the game?

Personally, I think that Bungie should not integrate 50 to 100 people capabilites into Xbox Live Matchmaking, but, If 100 people want to start their own custom war on Xbox Live then I think they should be able to do so.Comments?

with a party on xbox live its very rare u come across a 16 man party so making a 100 person max in a game wud be pretty pointless unless u included it into matchmaking

When I say custom war, what I mean is that since they got rid of "ranked clan matches" if you still wanted to have a huge battle between one group or the other then that would make it possible.

Personally I would like to see the Septagon have a 100 v 100 battle against the Halo 3 forum (jerks)

NAh too much chaos think how many noobs you find in one game, or betarlays, think of the time it would take to find them!

At most there should only be 20 people in a party at a time other wise it would lag but I do want a giant battle or two in campain with like a with a couple hundred bots all fighting.

i wanna see at least 60 players on screen at once 30 vs 30 at the most for connection reasons and for lack of chaos and the biggest maps ive ever been on i wanna feel like im in a real big battle while in multiplayer makes the game more fun the more the better but to many is a hassle

if bungie wants to have lots of players on screen then big maps are a must i wouldnt mind bein on a super large map sniping someone from literally 300 yrds away lol

64 player matches would either be amazingly awesome and insane, or really be terrible with TKers and lag.

I personally would be happy with 32 as the max. I think 16 was a little low but it was still good.

Gt:Jordan the hobo

I think it would be a great fun idea but there would be lag

I think more like 16 on 16
24 on 24 but no more than that

Notice that the most played playlist is not Big Team Battle? Most people prefer the smaller 4v4 based battles because you can easily get a team together and get to know your teammates easier.

Plus the fact that lag is always worse in games with more players.

-24 Players would fit great
-32? Hmm....probably if Bungie can do it
-64+? Can anyone say lagfest?

Either 24 or 32 would be perfect for Big Team Battle in Halo 3

No. 32 is the limit for a big game. Even that would be a lag fest.

24 people in a party would be fine any more people than that would be hard to control to a party leader just think 64 little kids in your party yelling and screaming so I say the max players in a party would be 24 players.
