this game really isnt made for more than like 8v8, only n00bs say otherwise.

8v8+ is when it's best. Anything below 4v4 is crap.

2v2-4v4 is so much more fun than 8v8.

3v3 with two people you've known and played with for years = best thing ever

I would say 4vs4 to 8vs8 would be best, as this means manageable teams while still having plenty of action.

8v8 is the max amount of players where every guy can drive a vehicle with the ref still alive, right? Games get exponentially dumber after that mark. An organized 8v8 like the old gamespy/esl clanwars is the best, but you can have epic games of any smaller size down to 1v1s.

e: the retardation curve is actually a logistic function now that I think about it

I think 8v8 is perfect. The vehicle limit is 7, not 2.

I disagree- having lots of tanks going at it is pretty much the spirit of Renegade.

It's nice when there's a raised vehicle limit, though, for bigger games. Otherwise, it CAN get stalemate-y when people are only being engies/techs/hotwires.

I think Surth was saying something else. The best tank battles are the ones where there aren't too many of them; just enough to maintain the intense fights/quickie repairs going. It's really adrenaline rushy compared to just a spam of tanks just outnumbering and ganging up.

This goes for the whole game as well. The more players there are, the lesser the responsibility and the game simply doesn't feel as satisfying. However, with lesser players, the game becomes more focused and intense; the butterflies really go mad lol.

I don't play to win, I play becuase I enjoy the struggle between the teams, and if one team is losing that way, I'd rather be on that team then be on the one thats rolling over them. The challenge makes it fun, if I didn't want a challenge I'd go play something like cod.

63v63+(128 bots on each team) is the best!!!!!

i've found the most exciting games to be 12v12 or more where both teams actually knew what was going on and worked together
it's like your 4v4s but scaled up, involving more players to cover and fill the maps, pushing them closer to their intended capacities
it's rare to see it nowadays and used to happen more often

Yeah, this.

A random 12v12 isn't nearly as fun as a good 4v4, but a 12v12 or so of organized people... it's awesome.
