Greater than 8 man squads also generates mismatches who are unable to join battle until they get lucky and hit a squad that matches up with them to make 16.
What do you think wait times will be for 2 12 man squads that hit search? They will now be waiting on a total of 8 people with none of them being in a squad larger than 4.
Anyone want to guess how bad the endless list of combinations like that will affect wait time?
An 8 man squad is now waiting on any combination of 8 people while a 12 man squad is waiting on any combination of 4 people while a 6 man squad is waiting on any combination of 10 people. None of them are in battle even tho 26 people are now searching and only 16 are required to create a match. Instead they are forced to wait on specific combinations of people that can total 22 more people based on their respective requirements.
How is it that no one is seeing how horribly broken this would be? It is absolute basic mathematics. If squad size reaches more than 50% of the match generation goes all to hell.
EDIT:
Lets not forget that this would now be taking place on both sides and even when one side gets 16 the other side can have a 16 man sync swoop in and instantly match up leaving the process to start all over on the other side.
You thought people were mad about search times before. It would actually be a possibility that a squad that happens to have an unlucky number could search for the entire day and never get a match.

Get it in your head. FW ain't PC. Why do you want to make it as competetive as PC? FW is better than PC for some people like me? Meaning..?
I can only speak for myself but I have the same feeling that FW is already better than and can be far better than PC.
How can anyone really vest interest in 1 - 2 battles a day that happen at a certain time and if you are not able to be on at that time you have nothing else. Staking the entire game experience on a hour or so a day at a scheduled time seems a bit odd to me.

Mmmmmkay here's the thing though If you do that you are effectivly barring people who prefer to play solo, or just feel like soloing from aquiring lps. That's a problem as that is the only way to aquire lps. If you do this you may as well make team deploy a requirement for fw. Do ya see how that kinda...alienates some people?
There has been some miscommunication here.
The first quote was saying pretty close to the same thing you are saying that FW should not be like PC and should be open to people. My mistake for not really seeing what you were asking there.

Ah yes well then glad I didn't get too snarky then lol What I really was asking was his meaning of "people like me"
I would say that people like me was just referring to those of us who prefer be able to just play the game and have some good fun matches and not have to be on a schedule for catching the right hour of the game to actually have a bit of fun.
As I said before only speaking for myself on that one.

it is unfair to bar players who don't WANT that high level of competitiveness
So, organized teamwork is unfair? Is that what you are claiming?
Giving a huge benefit to players who already have an advantage to the point of making the game mode unplayable to anyone that does not organize at the exact same level is not balancing anything.
In all seriousness how many game modes are we suppose to have that are exclusive to only people that can organize a 16 man team? Lets just go ahead and lock pubs to 16 people as well and put the game in the ground.
I want organization and I want to be able to play all day when I want to which FW provides. It provides that because anyone is free to join even when they are solo and enter knowing they are probably going to get banged right in the head if they are on the wrong side.
