We have the "special contracts" category on the matchfinder so why dont you try to test 32v32 there? Give the participants a extra amount of ISK and SP. Ofcourse you need to double the vehicle quota aswell. See it as a testrun for PC changes and see how the community reacts there. The maps certainly are large enough to support those player numbers.

Sorry but 32vs32 has never beeing tested not even in closed beta. It wouldnt hurt to give it a shot does it? Well not more then the random PS3 freezing thats happening anyway. If the feedback for it is bad you can scrap it, if it is good then you could introduce it to PC/FW. Just look at the skirmish maps. They are huge and surely are ment for more then just 16vs16 fights. It would give average corps with huge amounts of memmbers a meaning to mass attack elite corps which are usually smaller.

Namely, since if it is tested, and leads to Bad Things Happening(TM) like melted PS3s, they won't push it out to live servers. The fact that the website used to say DUST 514 supported 24 vs. 24, and that never happened, to me generally means they thought it would work to up the player count, and it didn't. I don't know for sure what has or hasn't been tested, but "testing" is something that is done internally. Not on consumer PS3s. So why did we have then a closed beta? To milk peoples wallets?

Just look at it that most objectives outside of a compound are either undefended or you maybe only encounter 1 guy around it and the other 15 are on the socket.

MAG had up to 256 players on a single map. Why cant dust have 32vs32 (64 players)? If you tell me that more then 32 players would melt the console you are blatantly lying. And the worst thing that could happend is that the PS3 locks up which it allready does every now and then for unknown reasons. Hell on some skirmish maps i need to search for minutes to actually find somebody to shot at. And look it from the PC match side of things: more players= more kills= faster clone depletion= more ISK generated for the winning team (and more salvage ofcourse)

Older builds had nothing to do with playercounts. The maps itself where the problem. Most common prime example is the gallente research facility where the framerate drops alot while on other maps it runs smooth regardless if only 6 people are there or 32. And there was aswell a specific map that was literally unplayable once youve gone to certain areas.

Painted wall map edges would bring back some memories. o_o I can ask if anyone knows where the heart of the bloat in DUST's limitations is, don't know if I'll get an answer, or an answer I can share. The maps itself are too huge. I mean the parts of the maps which are actually not really accessible. Like get on manus peak and you can see ground for miles and even some sockets in the distance. That are wasted resources which are in the redline. The playground itself is allready big enough to play on but the excessive areas which are in the redline are overkill cause those need to be loaded aswell.
