I think certain game modes (not to mention maps) are not well suited for 12v12 play. In fact I would say only conquest mode should remain 12v12, with Assault and Skirmish mode being 8v8 max.


My reason for this is that 12v12 single objective matches (which I also consider Assault to be) were much more fun for 8v8 play since it was less likely to be ripped apart as quickly, at least in PUG matches. This would likely improve the "stomp" phenomenon experience by many players.

Maybe as an alternative option would be to make the solo queue only behave like this, since that might be easier to handle now that groups can be up to 12.

Large maps 12v12. Small maps, let player choose between 8v8and12v12.
