This is the reason we set a 8 vs 8 limit as we still want to provide clans with a possibility to set up their own games.
For a fifteen dollar downloadable game I think that's a pretty fair deal. So does Gordon, and my guess is that that's why he gets a little peeved off when people just demand the moon. I know because it ticks me off a bit too. We're really trying to give you a good game at a decent price point and there are limitations to what we can do.

Fully appreciate what you guys are doing, its a shame the limit is at 16 but your stuck with limited resources with this games bargain price.
Just curious, could you give a rough estimate to how much bandwidth & processing power a frostbite server requires?
