all I'll said, Good Luck on the Lag issue!!!! its already super lag with 50 players camping at some notorious monster spot in MMORPG, now imagine 256 players required fast input action on a FPS. I don't care how powerful your system but when you have 256 players from all over the globe fighting at the sametime, you better expect some major lag.

 

It's called Planetside, a PC game that came out a while back had battles even bigger than that in it and it didn't lag very much.  Also at the high point in the day on high population servers there are often multiple hundred people in the trade district of Stormwind or Ironforge and it doesn't lag at all on my computer.

 Planet Side had horrendous lag for me when there was a big battle going on. Maybe it got fleshed out later on, but when it released the game was a lagfest for any truely epic battle. That was many years ago though, so it could well work now.
