So maybe with dedicated servers and (hopefully) good netcode this ought to run pretty well for most people.

With what I have and even dedicated servers I don't think I'd be able to enjoy even half that number of players.

I prefer things a bit more slow paced and tactical I guess. Give me a good game with something like four on four and I'm good. Preferably with no respawns. Call me crazy, but I don't enjoy the frantic pace that games with tons of players tend to have. I prefer things to be much more controlled and thought out, where every move has a purpose. Not just running at the enemy to get as many kills as possible before they kill you and then repeat. In a game like this especially, I mean, it really just means more people will be arguing about who gets to fly the chopper. Personally, I don’t think more players is a good thing.

Hell yes. I thought the frontlines demo was a lot of fun, and 50 players? Hell yes.
