    New thing to the idea: If you are afraid that the gamemode will kill the servers because of player numbers, you can just make it an exclusive event that happens once in a week...
    I'm sure they are already going to max it out as they see fit for a server to handle. For example mount and blade servers can only fit 200. I think when they tested larger ones they were exceptionally unstable causing 200 to be the mark that they kept it at.

    The only concession they could make is where there is only one life per player. Hence a 'realistic' 'hardcore' or whatever the name would be called.

    Have you lived off of poor rations, dehydrated, in horrible boots and feared for your life while running half a mile and then brought your sights up? If you can answer yes to those questions I'll consider your suggestion to reduce aim sway. -Trusty

Looking through the Website dispatches/updates I think they've always intended "large scale" conflicts but haven't provided numbers due to tech advances through the development timescale.

    I suspect that this game mode concept is the CFGs developers end goal, as APH acknowledged.

    As per your Perma death suggestion, I agree. This could be a good feature for some of the battle types. The PRT's are supposed to represent reservists, so in theory you may deploy visually as the same virtual soldier but represent a reservist. As per your suggestion though, it would add a more cautious approach for some with the inability to respawn.

    Guys the devs stated that they would include "several hundred" players on a server, my idea for making the servers able to handle this big amount of players could be like this:
    When the game is out and running there might be like 4 servers running with "Historical battles" at a time, then at a special moment at a week (Maybe 20:30 - ???? on every friday) these servers go together and make a game of "Elite" or "Hardcore" mode....
    This means that the four servers which might be able to handle 500 players, or more if we are lucky, go together as one server capable of 2000 players...

    Server limits cannot be combined to provide a more stable single server. If this was possible we'd have nearly infinite limit game servers already.

    Right about this moment I wish we had a face-palm emoji for this forum, this is the next best thing
