    Who else is excited about a 256 player FPS?

    I think if it works without much lag it will be positively glorious. But getting it to work without lag is a tall order even for a persistent world when it comes to a FPS.

    I think it's a great idea though!

    indeed it is a great idea, i'd really like to see how it plays out and mess around with it a bit. have to say i'm not a fan overall though, as i hate large scale matches and prefer less than 10 people in a game

    My main concern right off the bat is that everyone is going to choose raven and matches will be lopsided lol. Kind of like Destruction was in Warhammer when it launched.

    My main concern is that I'm going to be the only fucking one in my squad that actually had a headset.

    The adoption rate of headsets on PSN is horrible. If the PS3 had L4D no one would be getting anywhere.

    Hope the maps are huge because that just sounds like spawn kill central :/

    My main concern is that: # people wanting to win < # people fucking around. lol

    I've always dreamed of a game that truly realized the epic scale of battle. Doubt this one will do it either.

    Me too, except I hope it will... kinda doubt it though. Doesn't mean it won't be fun.
