    Also we need unranked and ranked games, so everyone can decide for their one to play ranked or not.
    One problem might be the trolls in rankeds. We all know them.

    40 Players ordering the exact same tanks around! Exciting!

    I'd argue we need more unit variety before any of that is worked on because until that we're playing tank factory simulator.

    The people who make unit models won't be the same people who play around with the code.

    Also I wouldn't have thought too much work to be done to get 40+ player games working. We did see successful 50 player games during the beta.

    Well the game has plenty of unit variety, more what it needs is a couple more balance passes to make that variety more viable rather than everyone spamming the same better things.

    We don't need more units, we need better balanced units.

    RCBM has introduced a ton of unit variety with the existing unit base. They recently have added a few units, but only 3 if memory serves me, and that was only recently.

    I would be down for this.

    I'm only a trial member with the Realm atm, but I can tell you that we play a good number of team games at night, 3v3, 4v4, 5v5.

    Yea, often us against random players. Not to mention that we play Custard's Boom Bot Wars to help him test it most nights. And I hate 1v1's. Even when I was fairly good at the game, I wasn't so great at them, too much rushing required. o_O
