How many is too many?

I notice that most of the CTF server are about 32 man and up.

Now for maps like seelow and similar size thats fine, but the majority of CoD maps (small and medium) this is way to many people.

CTF ends up being a stalemate with the middle of the map being a no mans land and anyone who goes into it dies very fast, because there are 20 people on the other side.

Have you all ever played on a server on a medium size map (Banzi or a little bit bigger is size) with only 10 people in the server?

You can actually move around the map for more than 2 seconds without seeing 10 other people, its amazing!

I think at most to have a proper ctf game there should be at most 24 people in the server, I do not understand why organization running the servers insist on cramming so many people into a server.

It becomes like shooting fish in a barrel.

Just a thought.

Yep. I think its been mentioned before that the maps are not designed for that many. My ideal size is 24 or less. If I want huge, 30 is the most and most the time I wont do that.

I only look for 30 or under servers

I am unable to locate many of any of those.

Rather unfortunate.

What I do if I cannot find a 30 or under server is I will play on a low filled one. It usually takes a game or two to fill it up, then I move on.

I know that kinda sucks, but its that or be bogged down and never move in a game.

Yep, 10 on 10 is about my max unless I'm just in the mood for insanity. You can still score with the flag on the bigger servers, it's just not easy and it doesn't happen as often. I usually like playing on 10vs10 and under with 8vs8 probably being my ideal size.

It is funny isn't it? The first time you play on a smaller ctf server after always playing on big ones, it's like this heavenly door opens up and the game is fun again. :laugh:

< 16. The servers I go on that have that many have private slots so sometimes it goes to 20 but I don't care at that much.
