Lol the current Ground War mode is laggy as fuck and that's only 18-player. I'd hate to see 32-player.

Why are Black Ops and Modern Warfare 2 both capped at 18 players then? I always figured it was due to the fact that the game was already pushing the consoles too far already (the 360, at least). Was Activision merely "lazy" up until now?

Lag.

It's just that simple.

COD series generally has small maps, and runs at 60 fps, so having 32-player matches would not only cause a drop in the frame rate, it would also make every match play out like "Shipment" on COD4 or "Rust" on MW2 with everyone getting killed every 5 seconds and players spawn camping like crazy.

Lag.

Not to mention the crap-load of noobtubes and killstreak spam. That would be so chaotic.

they use dedicated servers, but P2P matchmaking, P2P is where the Host is someones console modem. This causes an array of issues from host discontentions, to long wait times between games, and horrible contections. While many games, pc and even consoles used dedicated servers which are servers located in server farm or someone home and offer high upload rates allowing more players at a solid connection to your average internet users modem.

So this is going to be for PC dedicated servers. As this on console P2P would be horrible belong belief and a complete lag fest like there 18 player mode.

Of Course That's Just My Opinion, I Could Be Wrong
