This, and quite possibly 48 player battles in future, or higher, although if it were 1000 Vs 1000 that wouldn't mean it would be better and could be worse.
Also, can we please get away from trying to hold developers to previously existing genre definitions? If you want the same game over and over with little to no innovation that's the best way to do it. CCP are breaking the mould with Dust (as they did with EVE), so demanding they keep to the status quo (why?) is at best blinkered.
EDIT: And at worst, trolling. |

They're doing the world's first MMOFPS, minus an M? 
How about the first (that I'm aware of) game that connects an MMO on another platform directly into its gameplay and infrastructure? Or did you miss that bit?
Hey, if you don't like the game, think it's unoriginal, lacks innovation or it's player count isn't big enough for you, why are you hanging around it's forums and laughing it up? Plenty of other games and forums you could be trying out. |

He's right. We need the bigger groups, and more importantly, we need grouping.
Regardless as to what the CCP fanboys think, this needs to be tested during the beta at some point.
Using "beta" as an excuse all the time, or saying "CCP said it will be in game" is stupid.
It needs to actually be implemented, into the beta to make sure it works as intended.
This goes for 24v24, this goes for grouping, this goes for all the things that are still missing from what is supposed to be a release build.
Over the years there have been countless developers that promised stuff in a game, and never delivered.
I'm not complaining that it hasn't been implemented yet, I'm just saying P has a right to ask for it.
I'd perhaps agree (and would about grouping, which he didn't mention at all), but I don't think that 24v24 or higher would satisfy him. The MMO part of the game is more about a persistent universe with tens of thousands of players taking part - that's what makes it massive, not how many people you have in individual battles. Ignoring that and demanding unspecified numbers in a pretty lazy OP isn't my idea of a reasoned argument such as the one you outlined. You made a better OP than he did.
Also, how can this be considered a release build when there's no release date and CCP have already announced a new build sometime next month (or thereabouts)? |
