(Why would one single person be organizing both teams anyway??? ;) ) There's 8 person squads for a very good reason. Most likely each squad will have a very specific objective (something like "sneak behind enemy lines" or "blow up anti-aircraft launchers"), while the over-arching mission could be something as simple as "defeat the red enemy." Penalty for not completing your squad's mission within a certain time limit could mean your squad is booted from the game and you have to move on to a new battle while all the other squads continue to fight it out through their little objectives. |
You'd better hope it's not like that. If each 8 person squad is given a vital objective, what happens when your team can't progress because there's a squad of retards that are running around in circles TKing each other, or staring at walls afk? There would have to be a way for squads that have completed their objective to be able to take on uncompleted objectives to aid other squads.
Look at Enemy Territory - I can't tell you how often it would just be me and one other person completing ALL the objectives from start to finish - building structures, driving MCP, setting up bombs etc, while the rest of the team is running around shooting things and completely not paying attention to actually winning. And that's just with 16-32 players on pc :( I can't imagine the level of retardation we will see with 256
