Does anybody know if 4 vs 4 is an option the developers are considering for match making? It just seems a little confusing trying to coordinate 8 man (or woman) teams. 4 vs 4 would be just as much fun with a little more of a premium put on each players individual skill. (no place for weaker players to hide) Might be less lag as well with half as many players. Every other Mech game I have played as far back as MPBT in '96 I have used a joystick.. Mouse and Keyboard is much better in this game but it just doesn't feel right even after 6 months of trying to get used to it. To bad joystick control was not on a level playing field with KB and mouse. Other than that and 1800+ drops later I really enjoy this game.

I vote Yes.
Classical lance vs lance have to be an option

2v2 and 4v4 would be an awesome add If they had an Arena type level.

Considering the freaking tiny size of the current maps, why bother with an arena map?

Awesome idea though, right up there with invitational matches. As in, invite someone to a duel, invite another 4 or 8 person team to a match, basically private games.

Probably considering small matches for Solaris style but I'd be surprised if it happened in 2013.

Personally I would love to see a 4v4 drop option. If I remember correctly the reason we don't have this is the same as why we don't have 1v1. A 4v4 or 1v1 uses the same amount of server resources as 8v8. Hopefully we can get this some time in the future.

I think adding a 4v4 would kick a$$. that is all

i'm sure when they implement custom game maker this will be option.

i mean its a basic feature but i'm sure we won't see it until after launch so maybe like 6 months
