we know PGI can run it, and we know that there are more 4 man teams than 8 man teams. having it as 4v4 can cut down on the lack of coordination of the extra 4 more random players or even another 4 man team added into the mix.
1 pilot can take out 4 mechs for a come-from-behind win. while without proper information sharing an "even" 8v8 can turn into a steamroll with no hope of revival.
besides, having this set up of 4v4 COULD cut down on the "overheat suiciders", teamkillers ,and AFKers looking for a quick buck.
less is more right?
