32 on 32 or 64 on 64? Either way, they're most definitely upping the player cap from what i've seen. I've read that the full game will be 24 on 24 at first. I also read that they'd like to increase to somewhere around 40 on 40 and go up even higher as long as everything works out well. =)

Please don't use all caps for thread optics. Its annoying and makes people assume that your thread is stupid/trolling.
I agree that the larger the battles the better, however, you should try to elaborate on what you are saying and make a case for it.
I think that larger battles would be a good idea. As it is, there are times when the action can get a little thin on the ground in the current 16 v 16 battles that we have and these are supposed to be small maps.
There are not enough people to fully man all of the vehicles that get spawned on a regular basis, and there is usually not enough people to organize a good capture and defend strategy.
One issue that might arise from larger (32 v 32 or even more) battles is the leadership structure. We would need platoons and companies with commanders and the ability to set objectives/orders at each leadership tier. Also, the voice comms might get to be a pain with so many folks on the same channel, I would propose that there be two default voice channels, one for up the chain of command, one for down. This would certainly make DUST stand out from other FPS games, if you gave the players the tools necessary to make really realistic communications nets for tactical play.

Sorry for double post, but I found this video
FANFEST Interview
Where they say they are testing internally with 64 vs 64 player battles, that 128 people on one map.
So I think that answers the question.
The comment happens around 5 min in. |

When CCP talks in interviews, they always basically say that they will have larger player battles.
An example of almost every interview - How many players will be in a match? "Right now all we've announced are 24 v 24 matches."
If that doesn't say there will be more players in matches, idk what will.
Also, this is a game in EVE, ya know, the game with over 400k people on one server? I'm pretty sure they could go past MAG x3 on their DUST servers. |
