I guess there will be 64 player support, since NF posted a screenshot with max 256 clients

[Professor.Oak]

It would be nice if the player limit was set to a max of 32 or 48. 64 is just one clusterfuck.

Sir, do you only play on metro ?

For metro, yes. It is one clusterfuck. For Caspian Border/Kharg Island/ARMORED SHIELD CQ Large, even 64 players is little.

I hate big servers aswell. They are just too insane -> only tubes, nades

Then you will like 256 players TDM on Noshahr Canals

That. if there were to be such a huge server i think perhaps a modified map (bigger) would be called for.

Then again, we already know we'll be able to modify map boundries, and if the engine is anything like Frostbite 1, we should be able to add checkpoints. Btw theres a video on Yt titled "biggest map in bf3 is in singleplayer". The KAFAROV is bigger than Bandar desert. With its linear style, an Ambush gamemode could be introduced.

People who want to play ridiculously big maps, go find other games that will do it 10x better than Battlefield. I would start with Arma.

Did i say i wanted ridiculously big? no i said bigger* remember that the maps that are in the game are designed for 64 players max. so we should perhaps increase the size with the amount of ppl.

[Paulofonta]

People, keep something in mind... there's something called "server administrators". By giving the chance to do something doesn't mean that people will be abuse it on every single server.
A limit of 256 players would mean that the biggest maps could run with more than the regular 64 players, and that an insane player limit would be available, in case that someone makes an even bigger map, or if some server host just wants to run a troll server.
Don't just assume that all servers would be 256 players on Metro, and that everyone would enjoy enough to keep trying to play on such servers.
I would never run such server myself, since I know that people would just leave my servers due to the lack of gameplay quality.
