Looks like Domination is also downsized.

Its a good decision. Rush with 64 players is just a mess on almost every map. Rush should be 32 max...with 64 there are too many players respawning ever second to make it balanced.

Domination also works better with smaller player count, as you actually will have people defending instead of just moving from point to point.

[QUOTE="nutcrackr"][QUOTE="kaealy"] Yeah, because that 64 player subway rush in BF3 was so awesome and fun. Yes, I am being ironic. mitu123

[QUOTE="nutcrackr"] Funny, 64 operation metro is the most played of all the BF3 maps and modes. People love their bottlenecks and fish in a barrel shooting. :)Elann2008

Rush was originally built for the consoles to keep the action higher with less players. It makes sense that it's still designed that way and will play better with less players.

Rush is always 32 players but some servers allow 64 but it doesn't work right with that many people

Overall the modes are 80% the same. Looking forward to obliteration and defuse though, would have liked them for the beta

So defuse is basically counterstrike?

Yes, but not officially. Rush is designed with 32 in mind, so you CAN play with 64, but on a lot of maps it creates an imbalance. You can also play CTF, Air Superiority, Tank Superiority and Conquest: Domination with 64, but all of those modes are terrible with 64.

Still, I generally love 64 player rush if they do it on a map that balances it right, so I'm down for it on BF4.
