It's not likely to happen given the launch module, but...

But here's an idea.

What if there's a game mode with 3 teams. 8 versus 8 versus 8?

o.o; Just kinda thought of it while talking about a tabletop scenario with three players.
3 way games are ripe for abuse unfortunately. 2 of 3 teams sync, blow away the 3rd. Or worse, 1 team hides while the other 2 teams beat on each other.

Could be interesting, but I think it would have more people complaining about it than anything.

That kind of stuff would be better for private matches. Multiple teams and player run solaris tournies would be awesome but not for the main CW campaign due tot he reasons you metnioned

Wait until Community Warfare is in, make it faction specific.
Say this faction versus that faction + clan invasion?

Less likely to have a crapload of Liao and Mariks working together for a sync drop.

Unless they're united against the clans. :)

Clan tech! Just kidding.

What about 8 versus 8 versus 8 versus 8?

Or better, 4 versus 4 versus 4 versus 4? o.o;

That's what we were talking about though. If you and I decide to take 2 8mans in against steiner then it's essentially 16v8 with steiner getting screwed in an unfair match. Private matches would be the place for this and would be awesome to have, it's just too easy to exploit in regards to something like CW though
