You can do that by just replacing the AI with Human Players! -_- There is plenty of games with massive team sizes. If you want to have that, you could always just go to BF etc; they made the 6v6 design decision on purpose (reasons were stated in this thread often enough), so if this is a no go criterium for you, then maybe this game just isn't for you?

Increasing the number of players doesn't automatically make the game better. If you ever played maps over 12 vs 12 in BF it can make games worse where you just get stomped on and spawn camped. 6v6 is where they felt balance would be, doesn't mean the game will only and always only have 6v6 it means the competitive part of the game and thus the most appealing will be 6v6

Actually more interesting than I'd been anticipating. Would have been interesting to see what IW would have come out with if they had been let off the leash a bit more by Activision before the whole split happened.

Of course Respawn wants to cater to "noobs" by adding A.I.-controlled fodder. Why wouldn't they want to attract more customers and retain a higher player base? The better players will still be rewarded with high K/Ds and more Titans called in. Everyone wins.
For the record, I'd be totally okay with just 6v6, no A.I., if that's what they felt was sufficient. Players will stop whining when they're having fun in the game.
The Titan landing on the enemy Titan was my favorite part of that highlight. LOVE IT!!

Looked up smart pistol today.
Why is this in an FPS? Death of the handgun.

guess people complaining about pistols never played Halo 1 multiplayer. God that thing was crazy.

Judging from the streams I don't think Smart Pistol is that OP, it's good for clearing creep but so is every other gun, you need three hits to kill a player which require quite a lot of time to lock on, its TTK (Time to Kill) isn't better than any other gun in the game and I like it for it's gimmickiness.

Reminds me slightly in the way it functions from the smartgun from the original AVP game.
|
Is there something special about it? Sounds like it locks on or is able to track enemies.
|
It's basically for getting a fast titan. Use it against a pilot and you'll probably lose.
|
it auto-aims your headshots from the description I read. Headshots with it don't do much damage then? 3 to kill someone?
|
It doesn't kill pilots instantly with a head shot, just creeps.

Took skill to use though

I think the game is looking fun, but lacking in something? Would be great if I can customize the titan in the appearance (I watched a guy naming his titan but sometimes he can't find his titan because they all look similar) The burn card is very clever, but it worries me that they would release lot of dlc packs with more cards...T T
